EN
I have these secrets I keep to myself But they escape and they run wild Revenge is sweet or so I've been told It just leaves a bitter taste behind Yeah the roof is leaking, I don't give a damn Yeah it's raining on my head You took this sacred heart and sewed it to your sleeve Then you left me for dead See those yellow flowers nodding like fools I want to destroy them, they remind me of you I loved you madly You went away What a dirty trick to play I may have loved you badly That's what you say Oh dirty summer's day I found your stilettoes in my room yesterday They were glowing in the dark I was smiling as I threw them from the 42nd floor Yeah this time you've gone too far See those pretty stars in the heavens so blue I want to destroy them, they remind me of you I loved you madly You went away What a dirty trick to play I may have loved you badly That's what you say Oh dirty summer's day I was dreaming last night of stealing a gun And shooting holes right through the sky I was screaming and the were cowboys and showgirls on fire And I thought it was my time to die See those yellow flowers nodding like fools I want to destroy them, they remind me of you I loved you madly You went away What a dirty trick to play I may have loved you badly That's what you say Oh dirty summer's day I loved you madly You went away What a dirty trick to play I may have loved you badly That's what you say Oh dirty summer's day
