How Could You Want Him (When You Know You Can Have Me?)

I'm quite contented to take my chances Against the Guildensterns and Rosenkrantzes It's a matter of Cain and Abel And I can feel your knee underneath the table He doesn't dangle by the Seraphim He only wants a pretty face by him So how could you want him When you know you could have me? See the pigeons peck and peck to pay the dues But they peck a little extra to resole their shoes He's with the pigeons, pecking crumbs I'm on my deathbed bleeding with the Cherubims He doesn't dangle by the Seraphim He only wants a pretty face by him So how could you want him When you know you could have me? Ferocious angels send me falling stars But I know just how dangerous wishes are Ferocious angels watch me come and go But I'm not too smart To go barging off of roof tops though, no Sit out September on a window sill 'Cause you can't drink wine from a two dollar bill Saint Christopher lives on the end of a quill Leave him a diamond in your last will He doesn't dangle by the Seraphim He only wants a pretty face by him So how could you want him When you know you could have me? How could you want him When you know you could have me? How could you want him When you know you could have me? How could you want him When you know you could have me? How could you want him When you know you could have me? You could have me You could have me You could have me
