The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day

Magic!, "Gloria" from Primary Colours (The Last Angry Man)

Commentary:
"My friends told me not to trust that Gloria,
'She’s got ill intentions right from the start.'
I said, 'You don’t understand my Gloria.
Complicated yes, but pure at the heart.'
Today, I came home a little early
To find a stranger in my bed,
And I said—

"Gloria!
Why do you play with me?
If I’m the only one
Then who the hell is he?
Did you have sex all day
Just to tease me all night?
Whoa oh-oh, Gloria!
Can you just tell me why?

"Why?
Gloria, why?
Gloria, why?
Gloria, why?

"I decided to forgive my Gloria,
Said she would never do it again,
So I went on a ten day cruise with Gloria
Hoping to get back to where we began.
Then one night I came back with some red wine
Just to find two sailors in my bed
And I said—

"Gloria!
Why do you play with me?
If I’m the only one
Then who the hell is he?
Did you have sex all day?
How could I be so blind?
Whoa oh-oh, Gloria!
Can you just tell me why?…"
