Under The Covers

[Verse 1]
Spanish boys'll greet you with that old obscene refrain
The sadness of a thousand waiting window panes
Gypsy boys'll beat you at your own familiar game
While the whore on the corner drags that same old ball and chain

[Chorus]
They make better lovers
Or so I've been told
Under the covers
That's where you discover
If your man is whole
They don't come easy
But they're worth the time
And if you please me
Maybe I'll let you be mine

[Verse 2]
Latin boys are easy, they'll touch you with their eyes
Handle you the way they need without disguise
Gypsy boys'll fool you into global compromise
While occasional candy keeps your belly satisfied

[Chorus]
They make better lovers
Or so I've been told
Under the covers
That's where you discover
If your man is whole
They don't come easy
But they're worth the time
And if you please me
Maybe I'll let you be mine

[Bridge]
They say, "They only hurt you
Because they're hurting themselves
And they don't mean to dry up all your wishing wells"
They say, "You should be truthful
But you know sometimes they lie"
And though it isn't meant to, it still tears me up inside

[Chorus]
They make better lovers
Or so I've been told
Under the covers
That's where you discover
If your man is whole
They don't come easy
But they're worth the time
And if you please me
Maybe I'll let you be mine

[Outro]
So I've been told
Under the covers
That's where you discover
If your man is whole
They don't come easy
So I've been told
Under the covers
That's where you discover
If your man is whole
They don't come easy...
