I've been
contemplating suicide
But it really doesn't
suit my style
So I think I'll just
act bored instead
To contain the blood
I could have shed
She makes me
feel so weary
My heart is really
on its knees
But I keep a
poker face so well
That even my mother
couldn't tell
that my baby's so vain
she is almost a mirror
And the sound
of her name sends
a permanent shiver
Down my spine...
Down my spine...
Well I keep her
photograph against
my heart
'Cos in my life
she plays
a starring part
Our love could
hold on cigarettes
There is no room for
these cheap regrets
She makes me
feel so weary
My heart is really
on its knees
But I keep a
poker face so well
That even my mother
couldn't tell
that my baby's so vain
she is almost a mirror
And the sound of
her name sends
a permanent shiver
Down my spine...
Down my spine...
My baby's so vain
that she is
almost a mirror
And the sound of
her name sends
a permanent shiver
Down my spine...
Down my spine...
Sends a
permanent shiver
down my spine
