The Natural

I'm not a natural liar I'm not a natural anything I've got a lot of jealousy And it doesn't look too good on me I get bored in the middle of the night Wake up in the morning and I want to start a fight Said I still look 17 You got a few years left to make it in a magazine A smile like old smoke that hangs You give that look of give and take And you haunt me L'ésprit de l'escalier You said, I never want to hear you say What you wanted I'm not a natural dancer I'm always quick to guess an answer I've got my dad's impatience Always in a rush to feel sensation I get bored in the middle of the night Wake up in the morning and want to see the light Said I still look 17 You got a few years left to make it in a magazine A smile like old smoke that hangs You give that look of give and take And you haunt me L'ésprit de l'escalier You said, I never want to hear you say What you wanted And I'm not a natural winner I want to be the dead ringer I'm not a natural lover Some things like that you can't recover But I know how to open my heart Though you had to know me from the very start You said I still look 17 I got a few years left to make it in a magazine
