Don't say you love me when it's just a rumour
Don't say a word if there is any doubt
Sometimes I think that love is just a tumour
You've got to cut it out
You say you're sorry for the things that you've done
You say you're sorry but you know you don't mean it
I wouldn't worry, I had so much fun
Sometimes I almost feel just like a human being
It's you
Not just another mouth in the lipstick vogue
It's you
Not just another mouth in the lipstick vogue
Oh yeah
Get to the slot machine almost dead on arrival
Just hit me one more time with that live wire
Maybe they told you you were only a girl in a million
You say I've got no feelings
This is a good way to kill them
Select the control and then insert the token
You wanna throw me away but I'm not broken
You've got a lot to say, well I'm not joking
There are some words they don't allow to be spoken
Sometimes I almost feel just like a human being
It's you
Not just another mouth in the lipstick vogue
It's you
Not just another mouth in the lipstick vogue
Not just another mouth lost in the lipstick vogue (repeats)
No digas que me quieres es un rumor
No digas nada si vas a dudar
A veces pienso que el amor es un tumor
Que mas vale recortar
Pides que te perdone por lo que haz hecho
Pides que te perdone pero no es en serio
No te preocupes yo también saque provecho
Y aunque parezca extraño paresco casi human
Tu
No solo otros labios en lipstick vogue
Y tu
No solo otros labios en lipstick vogue
Oh yeah!
No e hecho una apuestra y ya estoy moribundo
Dame otra carta para si sentirme vivo
Tal vez te han dicho que eres la única en el mundo
Dices que no siento nada, y matas lo que quedaba
Quieres control aunque no me lo digas
No estoy dañado pero igual tu me castigas
Si hay tanto que decir, veni y lo explicas
Pero hay palabras que es mejor que no se digan
Y aunque parezca extraño paresco casi human
Y tu
No solo otros labios en lipstick vogue
Y tu
No solo otros labios en lipstick vogue
Oh yeah!
Not just another mouth, lost in the lipstick vogue
