Lyrics God Help the Girl

God Help the Girl

Pretty Eve In The Tub

Pretty Eve in the tub

Please allow me to scrub

Please allow me to rub

Tell me cares of the day

Let me wash them away

All the hideous weight

Dry you gently dress you tenderly

And ready for bed

You're asleep still standing up

I like you not made up

You've got a nice face,

It is crumpled and creased

From the way that you sleep

But I like you the best

In one of my vests

That you casually keep

Steal from me my underwear

You wear it better than me

Go all day no false alarms

You charm them all

The worker, labour free shirker

Management lady

Government spy

Long legged girl from the west

You came onto the scene

Like an energetic bean

Charming ways you have learnt

All the boys have been bent

By your mesmerising gaze

Waltzing into situations vacant,

Getting a raise

Writing home to tell your folks

About the city ways...

Are nagging at you what's a girl

S'posed to do

When a city closes in

Noise from the lady upstairs

She's as deaf as a post,

As transparent

as a wraith

Boys are queuing, troubles brewing

But you take it all in

Ride the wave of their affection

Look behind the gaze

And confessions of lust

Pretty Eve in the tube

Please allow me to scrub

Please allow me to rub

Please allow me to scrub
