Virtual King
Mary's got a new tattoo
She said the shading's good
And it looks like you
But the permanent fades
And the skin crawls back
So she rubs it off
Till it bleeds and cracks
Oh
But he hates the way he is
She shows him just how naive
And over the top he is
Oh
She behaves and leans away from a kiss
He knows he's blown his chance
just not yet accepted it
Mary's got a new aesthetic
She's into tall and thin
Blues eyes and athletic
The past looks so anachronistic now
With better hair and taller frame
He's sure to raise some eyebrows
Oh
But he hates the way he is
She shows him just how naive
And over the top he is
Oh
She behaves and leans away from a kiss
He knows he's blown his chance
just not yet accepted it
So Mary broke his sweet little heart
A wild ride who regrets
Why we started this.
Mary's found herself a new fling
(Mary's got a new aesthetic)
Well he can be her virtual king
(She's into tall and thin blue eyes and athletic)
Well she woos she sells and people buy
(Mary's got a new tattoo)
You should've known taking her back
Wasn't worth the try
Oh
When they met tears were shed
Her looks lowered and torn to chastise
No
He's not jealous of her with other guys
He respects her grounds and knows what she's like
Oh
But he hates the way he is
She shows him just how naive and over the top he is
No
He's not jealous of her with other guys he respects her grounds
and knows what she's like.
