Are you still talking to
All of those dead film stars
Like you used to?
And are you still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes and perfect crimes
Like you used to?
And if you're still alive when you're twenty-five
Oh, shall I kill you like you asked me to?
If you're still alive when you're twenty-five
Oh, would I kill you? You told me to
But I really don't want to
I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man and I was Calvary
And you said, ah you said,
New love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows - New love grows on trees
If you please
(And if you don't please)
That makes perfect nonsense to me
That's the price of being free these days
It's ridiculous
Are you still shaking out
All of the deadwood from your bed, love
Like you used to?
Well times don't change
Are you still thinking of
All of those perfect lines for love to bind?
You really don't have to
And if you're still alive when you're twenty-five
Oh, shall I kill you like you asked me to?
If you're still alive when you're twenty-five
Shall I kill you?
You told me to, but I really don't want to
I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man and I was Calvary
You said, New love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on - New love grows on trees
