with your red red lips on your white white face and your twisted smile gone down a trace and your father s money and your mother s taste and your sister s wardrobe all cinched in at the waist what does it matter to me now that you vanished cross the sea with your dancin mind and your sparkling wit and your lit rary connections that you care for not one bit with your jewelry dripping off your hands it s strange i know you re never gonna change your ways what does it matter to me now that you vanished cross the sea yeah a pearl in the ocean so blue that s what i think of when i dream about you with your red red lips on your poor suckling skin and your cocktail dress made for posing in and your father s money and your mother s grace you always have your very very own way you re never gonna change you re never gonna change your ways you re never gonna change oh my but you re never gonna change you re never gonna change
