The Crueler Kind

They call you the crueler kind
You've known it all along
And as for these crude little rhymes
This is far from your first song

Yeah I need you on my wavelength
I can't read you from the pavement

Rattle your head out of time
You're the nightingale snakebite type
Yeah they call you the crueler kind
And you're living up to the hype

Yeah I need you on my wavelength
I can't read you, drunk on the pavement

So hook up or hang up
Can I see you?
Put it all down to a pocket dial
And when it's time to pay the toll
You're gonna need an ace in the hole
Is your heart as full as the moon like mine?

They call you the crueler kind
You've known it all along
And as for these crude little rhymes
This is far from your last song

Yeah I need you on my wavelength
I can't read you from the pavement
Yeah I need you on my wavelength
I can't read you from the pavement
