I'll Deal

Of course I'm listening to the new Radiohead (which, incidentally, we paid going market CD rate for) over and over and over like my daughter with a new My Little Pony video. I had to look up lyrics, but after reading his slightly tired retread of some 60s cocktail party scenario, I decided I prefer MY version:

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
No matter how it ends
No matter how it starts
Forget about your house of cards
And I'll deal mine
Forget about your house of cards
And I'll deal mine
Throw your keys in the bowl
Cause you're spending the night

It's more Prince/Bryan Ferry this way, isn't it? There are advantages to partial hearing loss. Misheard lyrics are the sweetest.
