It seems you wanna give me

A lifetime of security

Down on your dying knees

I watch you beg I watch you plead

But your words come much too late

My love for you has turned to hate

Cos you've taken too much time

To show me that you're mine

When I drop you boy

You'll need another toy

One that won't stand up for herself

When I knock you down

You'll need another town

Where somebody's gonna talk to you

You just let me wait now it's too late

For your delayed, delayed devotion

You try to convince me

About the possibilities

But I know that all your poetry

Just comes from insecurity

Cos your actions mean nothing no more

When it's what I've been waiting for

Cos you've taken too much time

To show me that you're mine

When I drop you boy

You'll need another toy

One that won't stand up for herself

When I knock you down

You'll need another town

Where somebody's gonna talk to you

Cos you just let me wait now it's too late

For your delayed devotion

You played me for a fool for too long

Blinded by your lies I never saw you're wrong

I'm no longer under your spell

Hear it in this song, you can go to hell

When I drop you boy

You'll need another toy

One that won't stand up for herself

When I knock you down

You'll need another town

Where somebody's gonna talk to you

You just let me wait and now it's too late

For your delayed, delayed devotion
