Yes, that seems much, much more likely than "That Daddy loved a little more" or "And I died and loved you no more". Thanks for the link, and the suggestion! I've decided to put up the current lyrics at http://lyricwiki.org/Regina_Spektor:Love%2C_You%27re_a_Whore so anyone who wants to can directly edit the lines and try to improve our interpretation. It's come a long way already, I think there are just a few lines (like "While you danced all down the drain") that need significant touching up.

ugh, i think you people killed my webspace
jeeze

Was a bright, and sweet, and hot summer day
The day I didn't love you anymore
Some little kid wound up my fire engine's watch
As I walked to the grocery store

All the people linger although they didn't know
And they smiled at me as I passed
Cus they've been there before
And they've come back again
And they always go right back for more

Love, love, love
You're a whore
You're a whore
You're a whore
Love, love, love, love
'Cause we beat you and mistreat you
But time after time
You take us back
And kiss us hard on the mouth

Oh, kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Who-oh-oh-oh-ore
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kiss us hard
Hard on the mouth

Was a bright, and sweet, and hot summer day
The day I didn't love you anymore
Couldn't see your face
Couldn't taste your kiss
Couldn't hallucinate your embrace
Or all the actions I have traced

Love, love, love
You're a whore
You're a whore
You're a whore
Love, love, love, love
'Cause we bruise you and abuse you
But time after time
You take us back
And kiss us hard on the mouth

Kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Who-oh-oh-oh-ore
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kiss us hard, hard on the mouth

Was a bright and sweet and hot summer day
The day I didn't love you anymore
Some little kid wound up my fire engine's watch
As I walked to the grocery store

All the people linger although they didn't know
And they smiled at me as I passed
Cus they've been there before
And they've come back again
And they always run right back for more

Love, love, love
You're a whore
You're a whore
You're a whore
Love, love, love, love
'Cause we cheat you and mistreat you
And beat you and bruise you
And use you and abuse you
And cruise you and lose you
But time after time
You take us back into your bed and
Kiss us
Hard
Hard on the mouth
Kiss us harder
Harder
Hard on the mouth
Kiss us hard, ha, hard, ha, harder on the mouth
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Who-oh-oh-oh-ore
Kiss us hard on the mouth
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Kiss us hard
Hard
On the mouth

//I edited the lyrics, but the line wound up my fire engine watch still isn't right, and I'm not sure if "all the actions I have traced" is either. Anyone else want to take a stab at it?
