Dependent On

Now I got a job in a lingerie shop
I don't think it'll last long
She took me on 'cos of my skill to eavesdrop
But I heard she got that wrong
She's the type that likes to chew jelly
I get a headache from her sighs
She asked me what I was doing one night
So I answered with a lie

Now I got a blister on my finger
Which I got from telling lies
The next time that I see her
I guess I'll apologise

And she's a hard headed woman
With a tendency to fret
She's like a trickster, a fraudster
What you see ain't what you get

She's quite a guy
I don't know why
She sees right through my lies

But
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
Whiskey, women, wine and weekends...
Water!

Now she tells me things that no one's ever said
It makes me go quite red
One day I tried to ignore her
And we ended up in bed

We were trying to strangle each other
Then we went to a fashion parade
She said that she was really loving me
And then she told me she was all a charade

Now I had decided to get another job
But she tied me to the floor
Now I got a job as a doormat
Inside a lingerie store

And she's a frost bitten lady
And she really puts me down
She makes me run around the city in her
See-through dressing gown

She's quite a guy
I don't know why
She sees right through my lies

But
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
Whiskey, women, wine and weekends...

Give me water when I'm crawling on my hands and my knees
Give me water in this desert I can't shake this disease
Whiskey, women, wine and weekends ain't no friend of mine
Even Jesus was a fool for turning water into wine

Now if I had freedom I'd try to escape
But I'd just run back for more
Her champagne, weird customs and her
Magic mushrooms make me wanna
Scream for more

And She's a sick sensed serpent with a
Wicked sense of rhyme
I lie and she whips me
Man it happens all the time

She's quite a guy
I don't know why
She sees right through my lies

But
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
I am dependent on
Whiskey, women, wine and weekends...
Water!
