Rocky Took A Lover

He said I wanna shine in the eye of Orion
But I drove my soul through the Black Hole!
She said That's a wonderful way to wake me
But you weren't so nice last night
You're such an asshole when you're drunk
He said At least I'm OK in the mornings

He said The three wise men came a long way
Following that pin hole in the sky
Yeah that one right there
She said I don't believe in any old Jesus
If there was a God, then why is my arse
The perfect height for kicking?

He said I'll shine for you, I'll burn for you
He said I'll shine for you, that's what I'll do

He said They're like headlights
In the rear view mirror
They're closer than they seem
And from this gutter we're still staring at the stars
She said Would ya go away and shite
Last night all you did was curse those stars
Cause they sang to you of hope

He said The sun gives life, and it takes it away
But like all the greats, it'll burn out someday
She said I don't mind, I don't want to get bored
I don't want to end up beached on this shore
I want to be that star

And then I can shine for you. Then I burn for you.
I can shine for you. That's what I'll do
