At Least I Tasted Love

One good kiss deserves another

Fix my hair and wash my hands

Vanity meets common sense

Never got to know your mother

I suppose that had I tried

I'd be pleasantly surprised

And I would be a better man

Nothing great but everything I am

Flying fists just call for cover

Don't let your pretty face take the heat

It's best avoided on your feet

Why try keeping up with the Joneses?

They make more money than you can

And having things won't buy you friends

And I could be a better man

Nothing great but everything I am

(chorus:)

I'm a grown man

And I'm to blame

I pull my head up from the sand

And the world takes aim

But hey, at least I tasted love

If even only once

At least I tasted love

Business people bearing flowers

Suck you dry and leave you dead

Now paranoid with fucked up heads

Won't be a corporate sucker

I wear my heart on my sleeve

You can stay or you can leave

Cuz I've become a better man

Nothing great but everything I am

(chorus)

At least I tasted love

A casualty of a useless war

In a back no-name

A fool with a lousy poker face

Just lost the game
