St. Lucia
The Beautiful Game
[Verse 1]
Stumbling drunk through the garden
I see you designing your empty room
Now this seduction gets old
With the dots and all the crosses
But symmetry looks good on you, oh

[Chorus]
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it oh
Now that you got what you wanted
You say that you don't need it baby
Oh, ain't it such a beautiful game

[Bridge]
It's too fast
It's too slow
You can't be serious

[Verse 2]
It's a lie to think of this love
As anything but laughing at a choir boy
What you gonna do now?
The die has been cast
And the wheel has stopped spinning
Rotating 'til the cycle lasts
[Chorus]
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it oh
Now that you got what you wanted
You say that you don't need it baby
Oh ain't it such a beautiful game

[Post-Chorus]
(It's too fast, It's too slow)
You want it, you got it
You take it throw it away
(It's too fast, it's too slow)
You want it, you got it
You take it throw it away

[Bridge]
Slow down, baby, please
When you jump into the water
You will see
Hold your breath for me
When you're falling you will see the symmetry
Slow down secretly
When you jump into the water
You will see
It's too fast, It's too slow
It's too fast, It's too slow
[Chorus]
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it oh
Now that you got what you wanted
You're never gonna need it baby
Oh, ain't it such a beautiful game

[Outro]
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
You want it, you got it
You take it throw it away
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
You want it, you got it
You take it throw it away
