The Austerity Of Love Lyrics - Wisdom, Laughter And Lines - Jacqueline Abbott

Got my wow, got my cor 

And he's waiting at the door for me 

Making things secure for me 

When I return 

Got my needs, got my love 

And it fits me like a glove 

And it's dripping from above 

Like the candle it burns 

Old brown bear and honey bee 

Pass me by and wink at me 

Realise that what I got 

Is too much for one honey pot 

Sugar is the centre 

Of the honeycomb 

Sweeter still the heart 

That actually owns my own 

Got my schmaltz, got my cheese 

Got me down on my knees 

Got me begging you please 

The obesity of love 

The propensity (of love), the depravity (of love), 

The austerity of love 

Got my saccharin, my sweet 

And it's next to me on seat 

And everything I eat seems to 

Taste so damn sour 

Got my praise, got my prayer 

And it's getting everywhere 

Like your god isn't there for me 

Just this higher power 

Old march hare and kangaroo 

Tip their hats and 'how d'you do?' 

Recognise it in my stride 

Love is skipping by my side 

Sugar is the centre 

Of the honeycomb 

Sweeter still the heart 

That actually owns my own 

Got my schmaltz, got my cheese 

Got me down on my knees 

Got me begging you please 

The obesity of love 

The propensity (of love), the depravity (of love), 

The austerity of love 

Pitcher plant and Venus trap 

Give me five and slap my back 

They can tell just from my smile 

I'll be staying for a while 

Sugar is the centre 

Of the honeycomb 

Sweeter still the heart 

That actually owns my own 

Got my schmaltz, got my cheese 

Got me down on my knees 

Got me begging you please 

The obesity of love 

The propensity (of love), the depravity (of love), 

The austerity of love
