Lyrics Coheed And Cambria – Goodnight, Fair Lady
Text:
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
I have a story to tell you, of one’s slow decline
When a girl yanked on the strings to break this man’s heart
Oh lord I think I deserve a little better than this
So I’ll just keep humming this song and hope you follow
Turn me over, roll me ’round
To find the truth that I don’t want found
Oh, don’t believe everything you hear
I’m the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you’ll come to me
I know you will
Oh, I know you will
You’re lipstick crazy, I’ll make my pass
The drink turns over, the glass smashed
And with a kindness and my smarts I replaced your pleasure
With a friend at the bottom
Turn me over, roll me ’round
To find the truth that I don’t want found
Oh, don’t believe everything you hear
I’m the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you’ll come to me
I know you will
Oh, it’s my fate to be your biggest mistake
Oh, I tell you all you want to hear until you sleep
I know you will
Oh, goodnight
Oh, goodnight, fair lady
Oh, turn me over, roll me ’round
To find the truth that I don’t want found
I’m the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you’ll come to me
And eventually you’ll come to me
Oh, we can agree to disagree
Well maybe that was you, then, and now this is me
Eventually you’ll come to me, baby
I know you will
