Richard Thompson - Pony In The Stable lyrics

You're messing with my mind You're thrilling me but k**ing me I'm missing all the signs You're rushing me and crushing me Same old same old Packs of lies and compromises Same old same old Pony in the stable You've got me where it stings Wrapped around your little finger Sold off all my things Begging like a carol singer Same old same old Bread and dripping on the table Same old same old Pony in the stable Forgive me if I sneer You're used to being Cleopatra You don't like to hear The stuff you dish out come back at you Same old same old Packs of lies and compromises Same old same old Pony in the stable I'm flattered but I'm scared You picked me out from all the others Should have been prepared For friends to parlay into lovers Same old same old Bread and dripping on the table Same old same old Pony in the stable
