Paolo Nutini - The Love God

Lock up your daughters
Your sisters and mothers
He's coming out to play

He's a picture of fashion
And he's flashing his cash
When he wants his way

He's got ages of style
And he's blessed with a smile
Breaks hearts everyday

He's the one guy at school
Who breaks every rule
And find someone else to blame

And I watch him walk with a girl on his arm
See him seduce her with his silky charm
And I try to figure out if I could ever be that way

A million ladies at sixteen
With the looks straight of a movie screen
The love god
The envy of a single guy
Who can't get laid 'caus he's too shy
The Love god

Ages by his twenty-fifth
Two different girls that he's been with
The Love God
He'd never take commitment home
But you'll never find him on his own
The Love God
The Love God can't be saved Now this fairytale is over
And mister Casanova's luck's running low
He can't find a job
And he's not quite the god that he was ten years ago
Now he still talks those same smooth lines
But nobody falls, they just walk on by
And he's trying to figure out how he ended up this way

He had a million ladies at sixteen
With the looks straight of a movie screen
The Love God
The envy of a single guy
Who can't get laid 'cause he's too shy
The Love God

Overweight at thirty-five
The girls have hung him out to dry
The Love God
He'd never takes commitment home
So now now he sits there on his own
The Love God
The Love God can't be saved

The love was his playground
But now he's lost his throne
And life goes on
At age fifteen one more God is born

A million ladies at sixteen
With the looks straight of a movie screen
The love god
The envy of a single guy
Who can't get laid 'cause he's too shy
The love god

Overweight at thirty-five
The girls have hung him out to dry
The Love God
He'd never takes commitment home
So now now he sits there on his own
The Love God

The Love God can't be saved
No the Love God can't be saved
The Love God can't be saved
