Songs by The Wedding Present and Cinerama that start with the letter E

Ears

Gone as far as I can go with this crap
I've not come here just to
Watch him lie with his head in your lap
Well, at least not there, oh must you?

But this is all your fault
We made a solemn promise
You said: "Let's be adult"
"There's no point running from it"

I've gone as far as I can go with this crap
I've not come here just to
Watch him lie with his head in your lap
Well, at least not there

When you started to screw, I knew
I should have run away
Because I could hear it all through the wall
But I just had to stay
Every laugh, every cry, every sigh
Oh I can't face
The way I've behaved, but I just craved
To be in his place

I told him when we met
I told him I was afraid
That you'd just play with him
But I won't forget
Those sounds that you made
Behind that door with him

But this is all your fault
We made a solemn promise
You said: "Let's be adult"
"There's no point running from it"

I told him when we met I
Told him I was afraid
That you'd just play with him
But I won't forget
Those sounds that you made
Behind that door

When you started to screw,
I knew I should have run away
Because I could hear it all through the wall
But I just had to stay
Every laugh, every cry, every sigh
Oh I can't face
The way I've behaved, but I just craved
To be in his place

Estrella

The wind has died and your tears have dried
But you're still not angry with me
Estrella please, don't just forgive me
I wish you weren't so understanding when I've told you lies
Why do you still believe these alibis?

Because you must know by now, something is wrong, somehow
And I thought by being sleazy
That I could, well, just make this easy

So why does your voice still sound so trusting when you ask me why
Why don't you doubt me when I say I'll try?

Because believe me, you should leave me
You're making it too hard
How can you disregard
What I'm doing, what I'm pursuing?
I don't know what you want to do
But I am not the man for you

You've never found out if I sleep around
But that's because you haven't even tried to
You don't even know when you're being lied to
I can't believe you don't suspect some slight adultery
You must see that you're much too good for me

Because believe me, you should leave me
You're making it too hard
How can you disregard
What I'm doing, who I'm pursuing?
I don't know what you want to do
But I am not the man for you

Oh, yeah believe me, yeah, you should leave me
You're making it too hard
How can you disregard
What I'm doing, who I've been screwing?
I don't know what you want to do
But I am not the man for you

Every Mother's Son

You could hardly hope to please me; you haven't got that voice
A man just needs his mother back; a woman's got a choice
A little boy means strife and joy in sickness and in health
A man's got to have his mother back, a woman's got herself, oh, a woman's got herself

Will you help me, will you hold me, will you miss me when I've gone?
A woman's got to have her mother's boy so that her man is on his own
Will you excuse my little weakness, will you tell me: "That's all right?"
A woman's got to have her mother's boy so that her man comes home each night
Oh, that man comes home each night

Everyone Thinks He Looks Daft

Oh why do you catch my eye, then turn away?
I thought we said all the things we had to say
Shaun said he saw you holding hands with your new friend
How does it feel to know you've just won again?

Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream

Can I keep that book of yours and maybe this one too?
Oh sure, I'll bring them round tomorrow if that will do
Was it really full? They must have queued there since half past three
Oh I didn't go, was it a good film? Well that's just me!

Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
Oh you can have a dream

Guess who I saw by your old house just the other day
That kid we used to think was mad, but now he looks okay
I think someone's here, look out the window, I can't make out who
Oh I'd love to stay but I've really got so many things to do

Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream

Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
Oh...
