Gilding The Lily lyrics

Reading left to right Waiting for the fight scene (I think that I'm just what I need) I headed for a vice Two lovers and a knife without a tree (Seemingly so) Sweet, you need To take some time away To take some time away Shake without a sound Our feet are safer on the ground You keep your wits about you when I'm around Shake without a sound Our feet are safer on the ground Past the point of poetry now Gilding the lily It's hard for you to wear this kind of shame (I think that I'm just what I need) And to boot, in such an ugly shade (Seemingly so) Sweet, you'll need To take some time away To take some time away Shake without a sound Our feet are safer on the ground You keep your wits about you when I'm around Shake without a sound Our feet are safer on the ground Past the point of poetry now Gilding the lily A violet needs perfume Like a crown of gold needs more jewels But we need time Shake without a sound Your feet are safer on the ground You keep your wits about you when I'm around Take some time away Say you wouldn't like it anymore Than if I'd stick around to gild the lily
