The Magic Piper (Of Love) - Edwyn Collins

I’m through with love hangovers, it’s best that I stay sober

No rolling in the clover, no gretna green trip over

No honeymoon in Paris, I only feel embarrassed

For the cool cats, the charmed kittens

Both smitten by the love songs that he’s written

Caught in the sights of a deadly sniper

The magic piper of love, the magic piper of love

Of love, of love

My girlfriend, she go blotto of cunnings and his grotto

It turns out he’s a dirty old man the nice place that I want to be

Is sat up on this Christmas tree, while playing these games of

Catch as catch can 'cause he’s a sweet talker

A silent stalker all the savvy of a street walker

More deadly than a horned viper the magic piper of love

The magic piper of love of love, of love

He’s a heart breaker

A mover and a shaker

The magic piper of love

It’s kind of hard to swallow

You know you’ve gotta follow

The magic piper of love

'Cause he’s a city slicker

An expert politic-er

The magic piper of love

Of love, of love

Of love, of love

Of love, of love
