Lyrics
The Eraser
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Please excuse me but I got to ask
Are you only being nice
Because you want something
My fairytale arab princess
Be careful how you respond
You might end up in this song
I never gave you an encouragement
And it's doing me in
The more you try to erase me
The more the more
The more that I appear
The more the more
The more you try the eraser
The more the more
The more that you appear
You know all the answers
So why do you ask?
I am only being nice
Because I want someone, something
You're like a kitten with a ball of wool
And it's doing me in
The more you try to erase me
The more the more
The more that I appear
The more the more
The more I try to erase you
The more the more
The more that you appear
No, you're wrong, you're wrong
You're all wrong
