Milburn – Philistine lyrics
Pretty Philistine
Knocking back a rozee wine
Did you think that at the time things would ever change
You stole your eyes straight from July
And your lips from June
When they asked you for the earth you took them to the moon
And oh what a fabulous fall from grace
And what a magical mess you've made
Still not a freckle sits out of place
Pretty Philistine
Pretty Philistine
I used to wish that you were mine
Whilst the others stand in line and I would never wait
All the stories became true
He didn't marry you
And now there's nothing left to do but contemplate
And oh what a difference a decade makes (?)
And what a magical mess you've made
Still not a wrinkle sits out of place
Pretty Philistine
One more time before you go
Back to the place you've known
All your life
But I never understood
How someone who looks so good
Could feel so low
One more time before you go
Back to the place you've known
All your life
I've never understood
How someone who looks so good
Could feel so low
Knocking back a rozee wine
Did you think that at the time things would ever change
You stole your eyes straight from July
And your lips from June
When they asked you for the earth you took them to the moon
And oh what a fabulous fall from grace
And what a magical mess you've made
Still not a freckle sits out of place
Pretty Philistine
Pretty Philistine
I used to wish that you were mine
Whilst the others stand in line and I would never wait
All the stories became true
He didn't marry you
And now there's nothing left to do but contemplate
And oh what a difference a decade makes (?)
And what a magical mess you've made
Still not a wrinkle sits out of place
Pretty Philistine
One more time before you go
Back to the place you've known
All your life
But I never understood
How someone who looks so good
Could feel so low
One more time before you go
Back to the place you've known
All your life
I've never understood
How someone who looks so good
Could feel so low
