lyrics
Resentful of the rental store,
Dismissed for stealing videos and Butterkist,
You crossed the road,
And called me from a pay-phone.
Sixteen candles, five foot nine,
Struck matches on the bins behind the cinema,
I felt your eyelash,
Brush across my cheekbones,
Your lashes brushed my cheekbones.
And the shadows swim
Across our abdomens,
As our bodies twist
Behind the multiplex,
And the stars turn black,
A disappearing act.
We watched as it went up in flames
And gathered reels of burning tape.
Just modern teenage parlour games,
Revenge can leave a bitter taste,
But petulance is charming,
And I can be so charming.
Complete the form in ballpoint pen,
Your name, address, provide consent,
"Did you come alone or bring a friend?"
"He stopped replying to my texts."
"They'll call you when they're ready."
And the shadows swim
Across our abdomens,
As our bodies twist
Behind the multiplex,
And the stars turn black,
A disappearing act.
