Marc Almond Kept Boy
He brings me flowers every morning He brings the world onto my bed He makes my bedroom into spring time Violets, gardenias, roses red He brings me tea and serves me chocolate And I lick honey from his finger tips He makes the world a little brighter He makes my shadows a little lighter I know where she keeps her money I know she has but little time I know that she completely trusts me I've got her where I want her She's completely mine I've seen her brooches thick with diamond I've seen her count her beads of jet and pearl I'll bleed her of her soul and riches I'm so happy that Oblivious the bitch is Kept boy You kept me enraptured Kept boy You keep breaking my heart Kept boy I kept you encaptured Kept boy You keep playing the part He cooks me dinner with the trimmings He polishes my silverware With tears of joy my eyes are brimming Without him my world would be very bare I know where she keeps her papers Her testaments, her deeds to own the house Her trusting look keeps me in stitches I'm so happy that Oblivious the bitch is Kept boy You kept me enraptured Kept boy You keep breaking my heart Kept boy I kept you encaptured Kept boy Keep playing the part Kept boy You kept me enraptured Kept boy You keep breaking my heart Kept boy I kept you encaptured Kept boy Keep playing the part He brings me flowers every morning He brings the papers to my bed Opens the curtains to my bedroom And chases bad dreams from my head And as we celebrate your birthday The one you thought would be my last There's something bitter in the champagne Something working very fast Oh, oh, how I'm, how I'm feeling very dizzy The ceilings, the ceilings are becoming roundabouts I caught your eyes upon my riches Not so oblivious this bitch is Kept boy You kept me enraptured Kept boy No more playing a part Kept boy I'll keep you forever And ever (x10) Kept boy I'll keep you forever And ever (repeat to fade)
