Strawbs - You Never Needed Water lyrics
Your rating:
You said you were a virgin when I took you in the park You didn't need a light to help you make it in the dark You took the highest bidder who could satisfy your needs You wrapped yourself around him and you squeezed him till he bleeds You never needed wings until I taught you how to fly You never needed water till your well ran dry. You always set your target on the highest social scene You never gave your number till you knew where he had been You used to shop at Harrods, bought the smartest clothes You wore them inside out so that the maker's label showed You never needed money till I taught you what to buy You never needed water till your well ran dry. You're just about as subtle as a razor with your teeth You got your greatest pleasure with your lover underneath You sparkled like a diamond with a smile that you could trust You would find yourself a sucker and you'd grind him into dust You never started smoking till I taught you to get high You never needed water till your well ran dry. Water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink Take a look into the mirror baby, it's later than you think You're the ultimate expression of Picasso's favourite brush The wall in his apartment he painted in a rush You never shed a tear until I taught you how to cry You never needed water till your well ran dry.
