作曲:D P A Mac Manus+Fiachra Trench
He selects the plainest face
From a spiteful row of girls
Elegant insulted women
A flaw of cultured pearls
He drops a name or two
She fails to catch
At last he's met his match
Unspoiled and unaffected he wants her so much
She puts up half hearted resistance
Like she was taught to do
She's heard some of those small town playboys
But this is something new
His promise seems dangerous she'd like to believe
He says you'd better leave
You've only got yourself to blame shame or deceive
The waiting lines are long
They never get too far
Everyone wearing that medal with pride
Harpies bizarre
I looked on but hesitated
I failed to interrupt
You're so hard to tell the truth to
So easy to corrupt
I'll memorize your face
Your tragic smile
The hurt look in your eyes
As you betrayed yourself to the part of him that dies
The waiting lines are long
They never get too far
They're shining up their shoes to kick a falling star
You think you should be somebody
But you don't know who you are
Everyone wearing that medal with pride
Harpies bizarre
Harpies bizarre
