lyrics

You speak kindly and your words are warm
From courtesy you never waver
But that’s the total of the lexicon
For I am not your flavour

I think one time you might have thought of me
As a potential saviour
My priestly face could offer advice
But I am not your flavour

I’ve never been one to sense the chemistry
Never open to a woman’s quaver
But whatever dullness is my wont
It’s clear I am not your flavour

Oh, you were bruised, your fingers bent
I came to you as a first aider
You thanked me, oh, so graciously
But I was not your flavour

Your daddy wants the best for you
After all, you’ve been an A grader
My clothes, my age, my job, my class
Means I am not your flavour

You ask me to do whatever you wish
And I’d drop anything to provide a favour
But that’s me, putting off the certainty
That I am not your flavour
