Kept Boy Lyrics by Marc Almond

Kept Boy Lyrics

    He brings me flowers every morning
    He brings the world onto my bed
    He makes my bedroom into spring time
    Violets, gardenias, roses red

    He brings me tea and serves me chocolate
    And i lick honey from his finger tips
    He makes the world a little brighter
    He makes my shadows a little lighter

    I know where she keeps her money
    I know she has but little time
    I know that she completely trusts me
    I've got her where i want her
    She's completely mine

    I've seen her brooches thick with diamond
    I've seen her count her beads of jet and pearl
    I'll bleed her of her soul and riches
    I'm so happy that
    Oblivious the bitch is

    Kept boy
    You kept me enraptured
    Kept boy
    You keep breaking my heart
    Kept boy
    I kept you encaptured
    Kept boy
    You keep playing the part

    He cooks me dinner with the trimmings
    He polishes my silverware
    With tears of joy my eyes are brimming
    Without him my world would be very bare

    I know where she keeps her papers
    Her testaments, her deeds to own the house
    Her trusting look keeps me in stitches
    I'm so happy that
    Oblivious the bitch is

    Kept boy
    You kept me enraptured
    Kept boy
    You keep breaking my heart
    Kept boy
    I kept you encaptured
    Kept boy
    Keep playing the part
    Kept boy
    You kept me enraptured
    Kept boy
    You keep breaking my heart
    Kept boy
    I kept you encaptured
    Kept boy
    Keep playing the part

    He brings me flowers every morning
    He brings the papers to my bed
    Opens the curtains to my bedroom
    And chases bad dreams from my head

    And as we celebrate your birthday
    The one you thought would be my last
    There's something bitter in the champagne
    Something working very fast

    Oh, oh, how i'm, how i'm feeling very dizzy
    The ceilings, the ceilings are becoming roundabouts

    I caught your eyes upon my riches
    Not so oblivious this bitch is

    Kept boy
    You kept me enraptured
    Kept boy
    No more playing a part
    Kept boy
    I'll keep you forever
    And ever (x10)
    Kept boy
    I'll keep you forever
    And ever (repeat to fade)
