The Pretenders › Lyrics › Private Life

Private life drama baby leave me out
Private life drama baby leave me

J’ai les glands with your theatrics
Your acting’s a drag
It’s ok on TV ’cause you can turn it off
But don’t try me

Yes your marriage is a tragedy
But it’s not my concern
I’m very superficial
I hate anything official

You’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me)

Sentimental gestures only bore me to death
You’ve made a desperate appeal now save your breath
Attachment to obligation through guilt and regret s*** that’s so wet
And your sex life complications are not my fascinations

You’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life private life leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me)

You asked me for advice I said use the door
But you’re still clinging to somebody you deplore
And now you wanna use me for emotional blackmail
I just feel pity when you lie, contempt when you cry

You’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life private life leave me out)
Stop, you’ve been lying to someone and now me
(Private life drama baby leave me)

Ohh, how you mean
