Beautiful

Lyrics

One more for the collection
 You've got on your wall
 Paint it in the frame until
 You hire out a little stall
 And on a few,
 You've got to laugh
 As you inscribe
 His autograph
 They are the ones that
 Everybody chooses
 Beautiful excuses
 Closing in on targets
 In an open sight
 Each one spins around you
 And around you like a satellite
 Just take one down
 When times are tough
 A diamonetta in the rough
 They are the ones that
 Everybody chooses
 Beautiful excuses
 Always tragic perfect bait
 They grip you as they captivate
 Twist, but do not fabricate
 Then imply they implicate
 You get thirsty while you wait
 A demonstrator demonstrates
 That you've run out of
 Holy water, dude
 Your works of art are
 Hanging in the Parthenon
 But where's the only one who
 Ever bothered to take you on
 You can't explain
 Why that one's gone
 Until you put your finger on
 Whatever it accuses
 Beautiful forgery
 Such beautiful excuses
 All you ever wanted someone
 Who refuses
 Beautiful
 Beautiful
 Beautiful
 Beautiful
