Lletres: Taking Back Sunday. New Again. Cut Me Up Jenny.

On a borrowed mattress you were stopping time
I've been watching you, I've been watching you
For hours and hours before you knew

You are the satin noose
I've been saving up to buy you
You are the polished pearl grips of your father's 45

Give me all those gory details
Do tell, do tell

So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently

Well, I took full advantage
Of being taken full advantage of
Yeah, I took what I could get
And eventually it took the place of love

The matchmakers in heaven
Oh, they got a one-track mind
So in our case, I don't think they mind

Fingerprints' are a perfect match
And you didn't have to leave the way you did
I've been watching you, I've been watching you
Most times you never knew

You are a Sunday afternoon with nothing to do
You are Manhattan in June
As the population's wearing next to nothing

So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently

Well, I took full advantage
Of being taken full advantage of
Yeah, I took what I could get
And eventually it took the place of love

The matchmakers in heaven
Oh, they got a one-track mind
So in our case I don't think they mind
No, in our case I don't think they mind

So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently

[Incomprehensible]
[Incomprehensible] yeah
Come on [Incomprehensible]

Give me all those gory details
Do tell, do tell
So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently

I took full advantage
Of being taken full advantage of
I took what I could get
And eventually it took the place of love

Matchmakers in heaven
Oh, they've got a one-track mind
So in our case I don't think they mind

So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently
So cut me up, Jenny
Well, cut me up gently

So cut me up, Jenny
Cut me up gently
Cut me up, Jenny
Cut me up gently
Cut me up gently
