The Sweetness Game

Through all the suits through all the ties
Through all the old Etonian lies
We play the sweetness game
We played it young when we didn’t care
We play it still with silver hair
The sweetness game

Day by day by day it’s nitty gritty time
But you flash your easy smile
Everything is fine
No pedestal for you
No guilded cage no throne
my love for you is a cliché free zone

Lots of clever little men announce their profit’s up again
While we play the sweetness game
Through all the racket from next door
Through all the shite on radio four
We play the sweetness game

Day by day by day it’s nitty gritty time
You flash your easy smile
Everything is fine
No pedestal for you
No gilded cage no throne
my love for you is a cliché free zone

Through all the chatter through all the spin
Through all the sin piled upon sin
We play the sweetness game
We played it young when we didn’t care
We play it still with silver hair
We play the sweetness game
