Paul Heaton
Masculine Eclipse
[Intro]

[Verse 1: Jacqui Abbott]
That grand facade
Will finally diminish
When he breaks your heart
From start to finish

Sisters dream of isles in paradise
That ain't no use when the captain's just capsized
The smile that you now know was a guise
Left his clever lips and stole the prize

So woman take a loser's good advice
Let your heart go floating out but use the anchor twice
Don't feel ever sorry for the dicks
Just grab that dice and hope you roll a six, a six

[Verse 2: Paul Heaton]
That grand facade
Will finally diminish
When he breaks your heart
From start to finish

Sisters dream of isles in paradise
That ain't no use when the captain's just capsized
The happiness you now know was a guise
Left his clever lips and stole the prize
So woman take a loser's good advice
Let your heart go floating out but use the anchor twice
Don't feel ever sorry for the dicks
Just grab that dice and hope you roll a six, a six

[Verse 3: Abbott]
So as nature gave out semen
To the jealous and the sick
Jesus gave out candles
To the dim or partially lit

[Outro: Abbott & Heaton]
And woman you're a lighthouse
While the candle only drips
Girl you are a shining star
In masculine eclipse

In masculine eclipse
In masculine eclipse
In masculine eclipse
In masculine eclipse
