divine comedy - becoming more like alfie lyrics
are you all settled in? right, then we can begin. my name is…
alfie!
once there was a time
when my mind lay on higher things
and once there was a time
i could find pretty words to sing
but now, well now i find
it saves time to say what you mean
i know it seems so unrefined
but it’s time to let off some steam
oh come on!
everybody knows that no means yes
just like gl-sses come free on the n.h.s.
but the more i look through them the more i see
i’m becoming more like alfie
once there was a time
when a kind word could be enough
and once there was a time
i could blindfold myself with love
but not now—now i’m resigned
to the kind of life i had reserved
for other guys less smart than i
y’know—the kind who will always end up with the girls
and besides
everybody knows that no means yes
just like gl-sses come free on the n.h.s.
but the more i look through them the more i see
i’m becoming more like alfie
oh come on!
