Well just the other day While alone in my room   I said to myself, I need something new   I've cut a new life slice feed the lions twice   And they'll shake their manes in confusion      My love, my love's in vain, my love   My love, my love's in vain, my love      Put a bet on everything, it'll come up fine   My fingers are crossed and tapping in time   You got a pretty face, such a pretty, pretty face   You can brush your own mane, fame is your pain      My love, my love's in vain, my love   My love, my love's in vain, my love      Maybe an older woman will show me a way   To ease those creases and crave no reasons   'Cause reasons are with gods, there's a heaven within me   But we all shake our manes in confusion      My love, my love's in vain, my love   My love, my love's in vain, my love      Should I grab you by the collar or just go my way   With a knife between my clean white teeth   Don't want your feather in my cap, don't care about that   You can brush your own mane, fame is your pain      My love, my love's in vain, my love   My love, my love's in vain, my love   My love, my love's in vain, my love
