Heaven Street Seven - Christine 16

"Don't you dare ask about my past 'cos you'll be made to cry
Daily routine versus my dreams have made me want to die
I'm feeling as old as Rome and as cold as stone can you comprehend?
I was thinking we could be drinking and making love
until the night it ends, until we're friends" - she said

I thought "Your ways are strange but you can't derange my sobriety"
So I pretended I was easy but she clearly saw through me
(She said) "If you want to appear to be rotating babies on a nightly basis
you shouldn't try and act cool and stop just making faces"

Christine 16, you know what I mean
Christine, an obscene cog in the machine

Later in the toilet as I bent over the chine
After seven brandies and niverful of cider
Child just won't fool me - I was thinking to myself
But when she started speaking I just could not help...

A voice inside my head said "get yourself together
if you're going like this you're gonne be a feather
in the cap of devil, are you out of of your mind?
So I dropped her home and said goodnight

She said I meant to stir up her karma
It's the only thing she can't forgive
She's going to report to the Lama
And if I want trouble she comes from where they make it
