Placate Her - Dear Reader

What do you want?

What do you want?

Make your demands

A day without shade

A face without pink

Is it too much to ask?

Plaster it over

Paste on a mask

It’s a profitless task

Oh I can’t evade

The con of her sight

Of the girl there in the glass

I know every mark

Oh how I love her

Oh how I hate her

How to placate her

What have you got?

What have you got?

Offer it up

Flat of the feet

Weak in the knees

Hard at the heart

Easily bored

Easily bored

God, you know you’re a throw

Oh I can’t evade

The con of her sight

Of the girl there in the glass

I know every line

Oh how I love her

Oh how I hate her

How to placate her

Oh how I love her

Oh how I hate her

How to placate her
