Pulp - Love Is Blind Lyrics

Give me the city.
Give me the sea.
Give to me everything I need.
The future is shining like a giant metal beast.
It shines so bright tonight, with its legs open wide
And love is blind.
Falls in love with itself again, like it never should, the way it always can.
And she is mine, but the world is much bigger now
Oh tell me, should I hold her hand, and give her love,
or take her heart and throw it far away?
Oh now is the time, to jump into it all.
I'll just hold my nose, and try not to fall.
To seek and to find, instead of walking around with eyes glued to the sky
I turn them down to the ground.
Oh and I used to think that maybe one day,
I'd find the love of my life.
Oh but it's so far away.
Oh I don't know why.
Oh but I, I want it all tonight.
And love is blind.
Falls in love with itself again, like it never should, the way it always can.
Oh and she is mine, but the world is much bigger now
Oh tell me, should I hold her hand, and give her love,
or take her heart and throw it far away?
We held hands, and we looked out of the bedroom window.
We could see all the buildings collapsing around us, so we kissed.
And we laid on the bed, and we waited for the ceiling to fall in.
But it never did.
In the morning it was all still there.
The spilled milk and the dog-turd,
in that grey ashtray morning light.
I could hear thousands of people,
and they were all singing this song:
La lala lala
Hey butcher!
Oh, oh, oh hey butcher!
What's your name?
Oh hey butcher, what's your game?
Oh, you take all their love, and you suck out their eyes,
and then you rip out their hearts, and you eat their insides.
Yeah, then you just walk away, with a smile on your face.
Hey butcher, hey butcher, I've seen your face before
Lalalalalalala
And love is blind.

Give me the city.
Give me the sea.
Give to me everything I need.
The future is shining like a giant metal beast.
It shines so bright tonight, with its legs open wide
And love is blind.
Falls in love with itself again, like it never should, the way it always can.
And she is mine, but the world is much bigger now
Oh tell me, should I hold her hand, and give her love,
or take her heart and throw it far away?
Oh now is the time, to jump into it all.
I'll just hold my nose, and try not to fall.
To seek and to find, instead of walking around with eyes glued to the sky
I turn them down to the ground.
Oh and I used to think that maybe one day,
I'd find the love of my life.
Oh but it's so far away.
Oh I don't know why.
Oh but I, I want it all tonight.
And love is blind.
Falls in love with itself again, like it never should, the way it always can.
Oh and she is mine, but the world is much bigger now
Oh tell me, should I hold her hand, and give her love,
or take her heart and throw it far away?
We held hands, and we looked out of the bedroom window.

Lalalalalalala
And love is blind.
