[Verse 1]
That's enough out of you tonight
My darling
This show is over for now
The monkey is dead
I detest all this drunken brawling
Now let's see if you can make it
Into this bed
[Chorus]
How I love you
How I loathe you
[Verse 2]
It's a sharp, quick love I feel
My darling
But you're not as drunk as you seem
So why pretend
On your cheek, that sweet shadow falling
The pulse in your neck
How I'll know it
Right to the end
[Chorus]
How I love you
How I loathe you
[Bridge]
And all you can say is:
"Reverberating acuity"
"Lousy simile"
"Vacant majesty"
In the instant of the hour after
[Verse 3]
Well right now, it's you and me
My darling
Trapped here inside of this bottle
Drowning like flies
When the frenzy's over
We're crawling
Specimens spent and exhausted
We press to the sides
[Chorus]
How I love you
How I loathe you
