I Confess Lyrics - Tom Tom Club

Who gives a damn about love and happiness 

You've got your drug wars and of course your politics 

You got your money, to buy somebody else's baby 

Like your sneaking affairs with a certain young lady, 

And your doings, your plans and your brotherhoods 

Who can forget about your local gun club 

You got your mother, your daughter 

Playmates in the pose, 

I'm a ball of confusion, seems like nobody knows 

She's going to break it, like I'm into groove 

Deep down a possible thing she's got voodoo 

I confess that I'm an optimist 

And while when I choose love and happiness 

I love S.E.X. and all that's best 

in a world where every day's a test 

You can dream ah-ha if you want to (YO!) 

You can scream ah-ha if you want to (HEY!) 

You can choose ah-ha if you want to (RIGHT!) 

You can use your head if you want to (HOOH!) 

Take me to your leader 

Let's not mess around 

Make us call for pizza 

We're from out of town 

I chew my lips to pieces over this 

Every night they sit like zombies watch the news 

A certain lady's tummy tuck has gone all wrong 

Now her navel is off center so you know she's got to sue 

Bigger and better seems to be a give-in 

But making her kill is just not her living 

Madison invades our private living room 

Now you want to know who was fooling who 

She's going to break it, like I'm into groove 

Deep down a possible thing she's got voodoo 

I confess that I'm an optimist 

That's while when I choose love and happiness 

I love S.E.X. and all that's best 

In a world where every day's a test 

You can dream ah-ha if you want to (yo!) 

You can scream ah-ha if you want to (hey!) 

You can choose ah-ha if you want to (RIGHT!) 

You can use your head if you want to (HOOH!) 

(repeat) 

Take me to your leader 

Let's not mess around 

Make yourself a pizza (?) 

We're from out of town
