Marianne Faithfull - Sliding Through Life on Charm lyrics

The family tree was chainsawed Wednesday week So now I have to mingle with the meek Hey mister, you have finally met your match Now everybody wants to kiss my snatch To go where God knows who has gone before I am a muse, not a mistress, not a who*e Oh, suburban sh**s who want some cla** All queue up to kiss my a** And I was only trying to please I never got any royalties oh no, not me I'm still sliding through life on charm Sliding through life on charm If Marianne was born a man she'd show you all A way to piss your life against the wall Go ahead why don't you leave me to these thugs And creeps who want to f** a nun on d**? Is it such a sin I never ever tried too hard? I had to know how far was going too far In proper homes throughout the land, Fathers try to understand Why Eunice who is seventeen aspires to live her life like me Oh no, can't ya see, Daddy? She's just captivated by my charm Sliding through life on charm Sliding Sliding Never I wonder why the schools don't teach anything useful nowadays Like how to fall from grace and slide with elegance from a pedestal I never asked to be on in the first place Sliding on charm, sliding on charm Sliding on charm, sliding on charm Sliding on charm, sliding on charm Sliding on charm
