Tra la la hotel

You play the crowds
You play them big
Hotel bar gig, fancy dressing
And I stand like I should be there
Coat still on and a blind cold stare
You play like it's music
You play like it's music

But I'm in no mood babe
To act like it means the world to me
Or to even stay
You play it loud but it ain't right
You make it sound

No, I don't lose when you win
But I do win when you lose
The world has surely seen in you
(I like you better when you're not around)
The hero, the national poetry
The French rising tide over Shakespeare
But I see right through your eyes
You're nothing but the party surprise

You're good for my money
Bad for my soul
Spotlights running across the hall
Hello, kissing good luck
Fixing your hair while I wish you the worst
You play like it's music
You play like you made it

It's more than rivalry
It's love inside a cup of jealousy
Do I even care
You play it loud, but it ain't right
You make it sound

No I don't lose when you win
But I do win when you lose
The world has surely seen in you
(I like you better when you're not around)
The hero, the national poetry
The French rising tide over Shakespeare
But I see right through your eyes
You're nothing but the party surprise
Nothing but the side
The main ingredient in my dreamy despise
Can't you see I'm burning
Cause when the guests go home
Or find another place to spend their gold
You're back to me, back again to me

I like me better
When you're not, around
I like me, I like me better
(I like it better, when silence's your sound)
When you're not around

No I don't lose when you win
But I do win when you lose
The world has surely seen in you
(I like you better when you're not around)
The hero, the national poetry
The French rising tide over Shakespeare
But I see right through your eyes
You're nothing but the party surprise
Nothing but the side
The main ingredient in my dreamy despise
Can't you see I'm burning
Cause when the guests go home
Or find another place to spend their gold
You're back to me, back again to me
