Novelty

Call you, say, "9-1-1"

All I did was fuck love up again

Say, "Baby, remember us?"

Say, "We know how this ends"

You probably got a place in Shoreditch

Probably haven't unpacked your bedroom

And it's probably cold as all hell in London

Even in the middle of June, and

I'm gonna sleep in your navy bedsheets

Your roommate's gonna hear me leave

In the morning when the novelty has

Worn off from having me

Take my lace and my leather off

And the novelty is gone

I'll be kind, it'll just feel wrong

Look, the novelty is gone

Drunk in some ruined bar

Four stops from Belsize Park

Your teeth gleam in the dark

When I ask, "How's your heart?"

You've probably got another lover

She's from anywhere but here

And it's probably almost over, and you'll come back

To me by the end of the year, and

I'm gonna sleep in your navy bedsheets

Your roommate's gonna hear me leave

In the morning when the novelty has

Worn off from having me

Take my lace and my leather off

And the novelty is gone

I'll be kind, it'll just feel wrong

Look, the novelty is gone

Hang the mask up on the wall

And the novelty is gone

I'm always what you want

'Til the novelty is gone
