Hi,
From my perspective this is an exploration of 'Gentlemen Vs Womaniser' and how men's values are influenced by other men.
The narrator (gent) falls for a women who he pursues madly, only to be betrayed by his best friend Tom (Womaniser).
I'm interested to know how clearly these ideas come across and whether others can follow the plot or are confused. Any other feedback welcome though.
I wasn't planning music myself but i'm always open to collaboration if someones interested!
V1
We swapped shy sides in Tom’s kitchenette,
An alter ego I’d never met,
But in wrong hands,
She was contraband,
So like a beagle I chased her steps,
Tom set me up swear I’ll never forget
CHORUS
Square the snare with the middleman,
Lips that share when he’s outta town,
Boys turn to men when they’re afraid,
‘cus men are man made.
V2
Contract’s up. We move into Tom’s spare,
Don’t worry he’s many nests to share,
In fact he’s good company,
When I’m not around,
Promise it’s just a new pal you’ve found,
CHORUS
Square the snare with the middleman,
Lips that share when he’s outta town,
Boys turn to men when they’re afraid,
‘cus men are man made.
V3
Late for flat mate drinks,
Floating through the cloud of lynx,
See your face,
Smiling,
Tom’s hand on your waist.
BRIDGE
Tom teach me before you fly away
What it takes to be a man today
CHORUS
Square the snare with the middleman,
Lips that share when he’s outta town,
Boys turn to men when they’re afraid,
‘cus men are man made.
