DEFECTIVE LOVER

Word is going round town that Im unhealthy
Cuz I didnt tell you sweet little lies god help me
If Im so unhealthy, well then, tell me
Why do 4 out of 5 soul physicians
Recommend the Sacred Dice for malnutrition

If you were a pop star you wouldnt sing
If you were a phone you wouldnt ring
And Id have to guess when I was being called
If you were a mother you would not nurse
If you were a doctor, youd just get worse
Cuz as a lover you never really learned to love at all

You rewrote it, the history of our little war
now you call it unhealthy what you once called love before
now the problem, is medical, its alphabetical
a-b-c, baby you and me are incompatible
Cuz you need a man whose honesty, is on sabbatical

Here comes the therapist who saved you better ask him
How come you used to love it when I spoke in maxims?
When Id attack the lies of all those other guys
But when I turned my art on your deceit
Then you called it abuse and conceit

You said you loved me for my communication
But now you practice only excommunication
Supposed to be supportive, be honest? sort of
Guess you gave up faith when you gave up youth
but remember self-esteem comes before truth

If you were pants youd need a belt, cuz you cant hold up yourself
If you were a pill you couldnt be popped
If you were a fighter youd get dropped
If you were a stock youd go down
If you were a leaf, youd go brown
If you were a car, wed have to push
If you were a president, youd be bush!
Cuz as a lover you never really learned to love at all
