Slow To Learn
She's in the corner dealing the cards
She looks around a round
And slowly puts her poker face on
She's such a tease, a tease
Is just about the one thing she knows
The only way to get the certain thing she already owns
You know she always gets him
Somehow by the way that she moves
Is how she's reaching the goal
The goal is finally scored scored
But she is never alone
She looks again at her watch
Watch her as she will pretend
That she is harmless and nice
...
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her no, no
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her no, no
She's baffled but she swears she's secure
The insecurity has gone and gotten the best of her
The best is yet to come
We know just how this story will end
We know about the drinks, the smokes, and half-an-hour boyfriends
You think they really love you.
Loving in this case is the cure,
The cure is never really present when you're speaking with her
It's really getting to wrong and I am missing the note
The note is C flat not G sharp
She's sharp and yet she don't know
She's sinking to the bottom
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her no, no
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her no, no
Staring at a form that bleeds
This scene is dark and dreary
Tears are overflowing the mea-
ning of the ordinary
Girl that she once knew that she was
She wasn't ordinary,
Special was the meaning of course
How they would describe her
Tells the boys that this is the end
The end is come closer
Look now she is ready to go
Let's go take lots of pictures
Maybe time will tell in the end
The end is something that will
End up being quiet permanent
My god, does no one love you?
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her
Oh, oh
You're slow to learn
That you can't win with her
You're slow to learn
That you can't win, win, her.
Lento Para Aprender
Ella está en la esquina repartiendo las cartas
Ella mira alrededor en círculo
Y lentamente pone su cara de póker
Ella es una provocación, una provocación
Es casi lo único que sabe
La única forma de obtener lo que ya posee
Sabes que siempre lo consigue
De alguna manera por la forma en que se mueve
Es cómo está alcanzando la meta
La meta finalmente se logra
Pero ella nunca está sola
Mira de nuevo su reloj
Mírala mientras finge
Que es inofensiva y amable
...
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella, no, no
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella, no, no
Está desconcertada pero jura que está segura
La inseguridad se ha ido y ha sacado lo mejor de ella
Lo mejor está por venir
Sabemos exactamente cómo terminará esta historia
Sabemos sobre las bebidas, los cigarrillos y los novios de media hora
Piensas que realmente te aman
Amar en este caso es la cura
La cura nunca está realmente presente cuando hablas con ella
Está realmente yendo mal y estoy perdiendo la nota
La nota es do sostenido, no sol sostenido
Ella es aguda y aún así no lo sabe
Se está hundiendo en el fondo
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella, no, no
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella, no, no
Mirando un formulario que sangra
Esta escena es oscura y sombría
Las lágrimas desbordan el sig-
significado de lo ordinario
La chica que una vez supo que era
No era ordinaria,
Especial era el significado por supuesto
Cómo la describirían
Les dice a los chicos que este es el final
El final se acerca
Mira, ahora está lista para irse
Vamos, tomemos muchas fotos
Quizás el tiempo lo dirá al final
El final es algo que será
Bastante permanente
Dios mío, ¿nadie te ama?
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella
Oh, oh
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar con ella
Eres lento para aprender
Que no puedes ganar, ganar, con ella.
