bjork – short term affair lyrics
duet with steve coogan
it’s a short term affair
you’re my children’s au-pair
but i just couldn’t bear
to keep my hands off you
i was barely eighteen
what you did was obscene
but to me it felt clean
what else was i to do?
the memory still lingers
you’re cooking the kids fish-fingers
and ironing
each morning you’d come down
in your paisley dressing gown
then you’d sing
and the yearning started for a
short term affair
no intention to stray
i was caught in your snare
but my wife was away
it was so debonair
so i thought what the hey
i knew i couldn’t resist
it was a short term affair
you’re the man, you’re the boss
when i found you right there
like the father i lost
cleaning our silver-ware
so to h-ll with the cost
right then at once we kissed
you took me to the kitchen
your hands kinda started twitchin’
i felt so shy
nothing could stop what followed
lucky for me you swallowed
every lie
i know it’s all over now
try to be strong somehow
i’ll start a brand new life
please, please don’t tell my wife
but i won’t, i won’t stop loving you
please, please don’t tell my wife
au revoir, ciao, auf wiedersehen
we must never meet again
short term affair
