I Don’t Like Your Tone

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Stephin Merritt] You sigh that I should try your love I'll never be alone That you are true, you coo, my dove But I don't like your tone [Verse 2] You were, you murmur, further just a child But now you're grown You hiss that this is bliss, not lust But I don't like your tone [Bridge] What's with all this purring? Are you a cat? Why are we whispering? Love's not like that [Verse 3] When near I hear how clear you make Your so called feelings known It's queer, my dear, I fear heartbreak But I don't like your tone
