Soulwax - My Cruel Joke

I used to think cupid was a real jerk
a child star - tormented
a faded star of yesterday now toothless and jaded
he shoots his arrows wildly with bottles
scattered across the sky - he trips on clouds
with a face like Keith Richards

I am your voice what you propose
I am your voice your vow to be
whatever you do I'll agree
please forgive me my cruel joke

I'm everywhere - partial and entire
I'm on the inside of everything
and on the outside
I'm trembling like a man away
from home
but I can't speak my heart
now no one will listen to our song

I used to think cupis was an asshole
the loneliest soul in the universe
and as the wrinkeled birdman approached me
I could smell his cigarette breath
and he looked at me out of the corner of his head and he spoke
"So, you asked me why no one stays together anymore?"

You're never around when I need you
You're never around when I need you
