The Futureheads - Cabaret Lyrics

Amnesty night the joke's on you
About as much use as a Pulitzer Prize photograph
Irony here is lost on you
What sells sells and we can never change that

I won't be your leading lady
You can't ask me to pose like that
Don't you think it's pretty scary
When they ask her to pose like that?

I can't understand you
If we can't talk then how can we express ourselves?
No one here cares if you lose
Everything, nevermind your clothes in those photographs

In the finest tradition, cabaret is back in fashion
No use for these guitars
About as much use as a risqué photograph, photograph, photograph, photograph

I won't be your leading lady
You can't ask me to pose like that
Don't you think it's pretty scary
When they ask her to pose like that?
