Letra de ' Loverman ' de Graham Parker

I can take those riff raff
And get them out of your hair
Clean up your doorstep and polish your chair
I could move your house slightly to the left
Squeeze you till youre breathless
Then breathe you full of breath
I can give the zulus a point to their spears
I can give the lechers a reason for their leers
I can give the angels a need to be alive
I can get the bees a buzzin in their hive

Chorus
I can get you flyin baby higher than a kite
You know I can oh baby I can
I would stop my cryin if youd only let me
Be your loverman

The people that you hang with
Well you know theyre not my style
Id like to sort of kill them at least for a short while
They treat me like a lackey they call me a yob
They made me build their outhouse
Though they know that aint my job
I know I seem edgy but thats because Im sharp
I know I could pluck you like the strings of a harp
I know I seem jumpy but its not amphetamine
Its just that certain parts of me are gettin out of line

Chorus
I could press your buttons I can fly you like a kite
You know I can, oh baby I can
I could be a glutton for you
If you let me be your loverman

I know you don t think much of me
But these jerks youre attracted to
Ill make em look like monkeys hangin up in the zoo
Cos I could charm the birds right out of the sky
At least if they were flightless and couldnt really fly
Did I tell you I was lucky did I tell you I was charmed
Did I tell you youd look perfect hangin on my arm
Did I tell you I had money in a safe deposit
Did I tell you last night I found elvis hangin up in my closet
Well maybe Im borin you it looks like youre bored
Well it hurts to be crucified but its worse to be ignored
