Peaceful Afternoon
Rufus Wainwright
[Intro] [Verse 1] Well it’s coming onto 13 years together babe I pray that it’s the luck... a lucky lucky number And although I know I’ve brought you joy and happiness babe I’ve also been a fec-- a fecund resource for anger [Chorus] ’Cause it’s all a part of the game Yeah it’s all a part of the symphony And I pray that your face is the last I see On a peaceful afternoon [Verse 2] And now that our machine is running at full steam I pray that nothing shucks a wrench into the matter But between sex and death and tryin’ to keep the kitchen clean Remember wild the roses bloom best in ruins forever after [Chorus] ’Cause it’s all a part of the game Yeah it’s all a part of the symphony And I pray that your face is the last I see On a peaceful afternoon Leaving the living room [Non-lyrical Vocalizing] (x2) [Chorus] Yeah it’s all a part of the game Yeah it’s all a part of the symphony And I pray that your face is the last I see On a peaceful afternoon [Chorus] And just in case you go before me Rest assured that of this I can guarantee That my face that my face is the last you’ll see On a peaceful afternoon Leaving the living Living room
