The Adultress Lyrics - Pretenders

I'm the adulteress 

But I didn't want to be and I'm convenient 

And I make good tea 

I stand accused 

Of the worst crime in history 

That's my mystery 

I'm the adulteress 

I go to the park 

With a bag of crumbs for the birds 

That's where we meet without words 

He takes my hand 

And stares into the wood 

There's nothing to understand 

It's understood 

I'm the adulteress 

Look at the fool 

Made up to go out 

She's desperate and lonely 

But she's puttin' it about 

Look at the spinster 

Comin' down off the shelf 

She's in love and she hates herself 

Don't try to stop me 

Don't get in my way 

It's too late 

I've made my play 

Does misery love company 

I'll be in the bar 

You'll find me
