Mrs. Peacock

from Look! by Sanchez 77

lyrics

In a place you don’t expect
She will be right at your service
It’s a marital regret
But she understands your purpose
She smells your weakness as you let her in
You try to know her but you won’t get in

She will always be discreet
Understands a reputation
She will sweep you off your feet
It’s a part of her vocation
She knows your history, you let her in
You try to know her but you won’t get in

Spending hours in the dining room
Smell the flowers in the drawing room
You’re tied up and it isn’t what you asked for
A new life in the living room
You want to end it in the bedroom
Time’s up and she isn’t what you asked for.

You are just another part
In her 9-5 collection
She will never show her heart
Plays her role with such perfection
She shows a smile and you let her in
You try to know her but you won’t get in

(chorus)

You never planned it, now she’s taking advantage
And this new behaviour...they never expect
She’s like a model but she’s changing your morals
And this new behaviour...they never expect

You’re a peacock in everything but beauty
