People In Love

Art Brut


People in love, lie around and get fat 
I didn't want us to end up like that 
This isn't the first time 
You've fallen apart 
Now you're indulging in just playing a part 

The more it happens, the easier it gets 
You can learn to enjoy this type of upset 
So pass me the wine 
A cigarette too 
We've about a week and a half to get through 

To every girl, that's ever been with me 
I've got over you all, eventually 
What becomes of the broken-hearted? 
They're drunk for a few weeks, 
Then back where they started 
So pass me the wine 
A cigarette too 
We've about a week and a half to get through 

You can tell how bad you feel 
By how long you're in the shower 
You're in and out in minutes 
Whereas it used to take hours 

It's not the breaking up, 
It's the starting again 
Meeting new people, taking them out as a friend 
The more it happens, the easier it gets 
You can learn to enjoy this type of upset 
People in love, lie around and get fat 
I didn't want us to end up like that
