Drop that coke in that hot water. And tell that bitch to hold her nose. . Man I'm richer than a bitch, ho (you must think I'm lyin'). Wake up, gotta get dough (you must think I'm lyin').
Some day he'll come along, the man i love. And he'll be big and strong, the man i love. And when he comes my way. I'll do my best to make him stay. He'll look at me and smile, i understand.
Think of all the luck you got. Know that it's not for naught. You were beaming once before. But it's not like that anymore. . Count all the moods you've known.
I won my lips at the county fair. A thousand years ago. They're made of glass, but they get the job done. And they shudder at the sound of your name. .
How much can you fill up before you start crying?. All the word start spilling out. I cant stop them from flying. Well Im just trying to get them back.
Brothers got room to talk. Messin' round on the block. Corner shops, stares, and stops. Mother rather not. You're young enough to say what you feel. So say what you feel, say what you feel.
I' ve been away so long. And father I. Don't know where I have gone. Time- brought me here. I called it home. A Place- I have never known,. It seems,.
I haven't heard a voice that I can trust. And all this sweetness turns a throat to rust. I'm standing on a quay, wrapped up in mist. The steamer's left with someone that I miss.
She walks me home. There's a Mercedes parked in our street. So we stop and we discuss. Who on earth the owner could be that's just like me. . I'd evade waking up.
Never thought I'd ever hear from you. My slapped face has healed, so has the misunderstanding. And what brings, what brings you around. Amidst this torrid time with your heart near mine?.
A trader in furs living in exile. Boy, what a kook, look at that passport. Stale bread and paper without privilege. If you live here learn the language.
Lord I feel you made the hills, watch them roll.. I've seen the promised land, and that is all.. Please be kind. Please be kind. What the others take; I let them believe..
A ruby waistcoat won't hide my fear. At 12:31 watch my teeth disappear. People buy watches. then tell the time. By the punctual keeling. and crack of my spine.
You and I together, with nothing showing at all,. In a darkened cinema, I'll give you pleasure in the stalls.. Want to give you tenderness, and my affection too..
It took you a week to say. One day you were. . A virtuoso, a virtuoso. The girls have moved. . Some brass band and a marching girl. She likes it that way.
A widow's life is no life at all. Look said the ghost, "There in the hall. Her big brown eyes and northern beer. Pulled her through her living years".
I don't wanna let you out of my sight. Don't wanna let you onto your flight. The fortune teller might have been right. The bad old world can turn your hair white.
Candles and tambourines shine in the dusk. Monkeys and Spoonful float through the musk. Why when you come here does the rainbow turn black?. Spitting and burning, the vision attacks.
They had problems with their father's law. They sleep in the back of a feminist bookstore. The Clarke Sisters. . The eldest sister keeps a midnight vigil.
Lyrics: Grant. in search of a new voice. you burnt all your lyrics. and flew to a new town. "one of the has beens". that was your phrase. but what about show-biz?.
