Capricorn Woman

Capricorn woman caught a furcoat man
Out of the fire and into the frying pan
Gods just looking down, bet they're gonna laugh
Men just gonna cheer that boy in hell
One very long before it falls deep
Only one thing on his mind and he can't get to sleep
Four lines burnin' the whole night long
Since you figured out how he'd been hanging on
Well, he knows he's got trouble
But he just can't back down
Stepping on the brakes
But the wheels keep turning around

It oughta be illegal
You just can't settle defense
It oughta be against the law
A capital offence

Well, the chime went by
But she didn't call
[?]
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Couldn't put the bees to spat together again
He burned all her letters
Except for one or two
He's gonna build a brand new life
He's gonna find somebody new

It oughta be illegal
You just can't settle defense
It oughta be against the law
A capital offence

Spin baby, spin
She's got a web to weave
One shall be inside
You don't get to win
Six months later and he's feeling fine
Capricorn woman gets back on her line
She been down to good deeds
She's been painting her toes
You're just a cog on a wheel
That's just the way it goes!

It oughta be illegal
You just can't settle defense
It oughta be against the law
A capital offence
