Love Is Hard

LOVE IS HARD
2003 polar levine--sine language music/BMI

Allison ponders a man named Mose
He's up on a mountain with his bush a-burnin'
Was he sucking on Yvonne's toes?
While girl sits home all toss and turnin'
Cold compress and a dose of religion
A yen to confess what's in her bones
Shopping for shoes in lieu of livin'
Then bolt the door and get on with jones
Stairwell dank in the cold of summer
Love is hard no love's a bummer
I know

CHORUS:
Love is hard . . . lovelorn
Love is hard . . . shopworn
Got to slow down. Got to slow down
Slow down
To get born

Moses suits up, shoots up the fast lane
Swims upstream in digital pool
Knocking down pussy like lines of cocaine
A gut full of gimme and a mouth full of drool
Sweet sixteen in the neighbor's yard
Someone else's buns in the oven
Mo is whackin' the doggie hard
Twenty times two but no real lovin'
Love is hard where the fun is easy
Heart gets tired while the nose gets greasy
I know

CHORUS:
Love is hard . . . lovelorn
Love is hard . . . shopworn
Got to slow down. Got to slow down
Slow down
To get born
