A sub modern girl age 25
Tanqueray lipstick and cashmere eyes
she teases all the neighborhood boys
with her salt water curls
brown sugar baby is what they sing about her
oh I remember the time
when the wine was much sweeter and it lasted for days
Practiced in the politics of personality
you've got a jealous persuasion
drinking the cocktail of misery
you're the neighborhood aristricat
tripping the life fantastic
you must be a sucker for it
oh don't you run and hide
no one wants to settle down before their time
Suddenly you find yourself trying to hold on to some kind of life
without being absurd or losing it
I'm tired of being wrong all the time
so sugar
pour the wine
don't let anyone even try to hold you
to past parades with circumstantial overtones of younger years
and crocodile tears
don't get old just get over it
oh I remember the time
when the wine was much sweeter and it lasted for days
Suddenly you find yourself trying to hold to some kind of life
Suddenly you find yourself trying to hold on to your second wife
but don't lose your head
I'm tired of being wrong all the time
so sugar
pour the wine
pour the wine
