Five Stars - Local Hero

You clap your hands and then you clapped your heels

Right on the pavement

I’m firing sixteen cylinders, you’re running at

Twenty-five percent

Couple up, double down

A red tassel to adorn your head

It’ll turn you around and

Spread across your skin

Five stars for you and all your little games

And for making me feel so ashamed

Your mouth and tongue withdrew

And your skin feels so warm but I’m already yours anyway

And it just takes my breath away

If you’re set on making grades and making love

What does that make me

Couple whispers on the side, dirty looks —

They must’ve all gone crazy

Got so sick of it all, clandestine spite

They’ve got it in spades

See, I heard you call

Your voice sounded so thin

Five stars for you and all your little games

And for making me feel so ashamed

Your mouth and tongue withdrew

But your skin feels so warm and I’m already yours anyway

And it just takes my breath away

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered

I won’t be bothered (I won’t be bothered)

I won’t be bothered
