EIGHTH WONDER

Take these dogs away from me

Your life's a mystery, mine is an open book
If I could read your mind, I think I'd take a look
I'm not scared
Baby, I don't care

What have you got to hide? What do you need to prove?
You're always telling lies, and that's the only truth
I don't care
Baby, I'm not scared

Tonight the streets are full of actors
I don't know why
Oh, take these dogs away from me
Before they, they bite

What have you got to say of shadows in the past?
I thought that, if you paid, you'd keep them off our backs
Where do we have to be, so I can laugh and you'll be free?
I'd go anywhere
Baby, I don't care
I'm not scared
I'm not scared

Tonight the streets are full of actors
I don't know why
Oh, debarasse-moi de ces chiens
Avant qu'ils mordent
Avant qu'ils mordent
Tonight I fought and made my mind up
I know it's right
I know these dogs still snap around me
But I can, I can fight

If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do ; you
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do ; you

I'm not scared
Baby, I don't care
I'd go anywhere
Baby, I'm not scared
J'ai pas peur
J'ai pas peur
I'm not scared

I've been walking in the rain
Just to get wet on purpose
I've been forcing myself
Not to forget just to feel worse
I've been getting away with it all my life
(Getting away)

However I look, it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see
I love you more than you love me

I hate that mirror
It makes me feel so worthless
I'm an original sinner
But when I'm with you I couldn't care less
I've been getting away with it all my life
Getting away with it
All my life
(Getting away)

However I look, it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
More than you love me

I thought I gave up falling in love
A long, long time ago
I guess I like it, but I can't tell you
You shouldn't really know
And it's been true all my life
Yes, it's been true all my life

I've been talking to myself
Just to suggest that I'm selfish
(Getting ahead)
I've been trying to impress
That more is less, and I'm repressed
(I should do what he said)

However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
Get away with it
Get away with it

The Patience Of A Saint
Taken from the album ELECTRONIC
 

Talking of my attributes
The things I do so well
As anyone who's in cahoots
With me will readily tell
I've lived up here, I've been down there
I've bought so I could sell
And if I drove a faster car
I'd drive it bloody well
How could I change?
I live without restraint

And I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint

Thinking of my attitudes
Talking one-on-one
I may disagree with you
But look where you've come from
And all that you've got
I thought that I would faint

But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint

I'm talking to myself (I'm talking to myself)
Talking to myself (myself myself)
I'm talking to the one that I know best
I'm talking to the one that I know best

Bury me with gratitude
You can't go to hell
Why should I care?
I'd rather watch drying paint

But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint

Now, my head is spinning
At the back of my mind, I think I'm winning
I was somebody falling for one who was not
Somebody tired of dreaming
Now it's already dawning that this time I've got
Someone who won't leave me feeling

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

Listen, as you call my name
Just one syllable said, then spoken once again
From the sound of your voice, the promise you make
You're somebody I can believe in
Someone who won't leave me feeling

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

At the back of my head
I believe what you said
Dreaming

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

BOY GEORGE

I know all there is to know, about the crying game
I've had my share of the crying game
First there are kisses
Then there are sighs
And then before you know where you are, you're saying goodbye

One day soon, I'm gonna tell the moon, about the crying game
And if he knows, maybe he'll explain
Why there are heartaches (Heartaches)
Why there are tears (So sad)
And what to do, to stop feeling blue, when love disappears

First there are kisses (Kisses)
Then there are sighs (So sad)
And then before, you know where you are, you're saying goodbye

Don't want no more, of the crying game (Don't want no more)
Don't want no more, of the crying game (Don't want no more)
Don't want no more, of the crying game (Don't want no more)
Don't want no more, of the crying game

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Street is like a jungle
So call the police
Following the herd
Down to Greece, on holiday
Love in the nineties
Is paranoid
On sunny beaches
Take your chances, looking for

Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Avoiding all work
'Cause there's none available
Like battery thinkers
Count your thoughts on one, two, three, four, five fingers
Nothing is wasted
Only reproduced
You get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schoen
but we haven't been introduced

Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Looking for
Girls! Boys! Boys! Girls!
Boys! Girls! Girls! Boys!
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Girls, who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do
Boys like they're girls, who do girls, like they're boys

If I fall, moondust will cover me, moondust will cover me
If I fall, moondust will cover me
If I fall, moondust will cover me

Spaceboy, you're sleepy now
Your silhouette is so stationary
You're released, but your custody calls
And I wanna be free
Don't you wanna be free?
Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you

So bye bye love
Yeah, bye bye love
Hallo spaceboy
This chaos is killing me
Hallo spaceboy
(Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo)
(Moondust will cover me)

Ground to Major, bye, bye, Tom
This chaos is killing me
Dead the circuit, countdown's wrong
This chaos is killing me
Planet earth, is control on
So sleepy now
Do you wanna be free?
Don't you wanna be free?

Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you

So bye bye love
Yeah, bye bye love
Hallo spaceboy
(Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo)
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
This chaos is killing me
This chaos is killing me

So, bye bye love
Yeah, bye bye love
Do you wanna be free?
Yes, I wanna be free
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you
So bye bye love
Yeah, bye bye love
Hallo spaceboy
(Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo)
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
Hallo spaceboy
(Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo)
Hallo, hallo

Tina Turner

CONFIDENTIAL
Taken from the album WILDEST DREAMS

You don't need to give me reasons
I understand
Some things are best kept secret
And you've done all you can
I want no recompense
Just as much as you can give of yourself
If that makes sense

And I'll keep it confidential
It's secret, confidential
It may come as some surprise
But I can stay secret from prying eyes
So don't worry I'll keep this condifential
Between you and me

Go on, tell me that you love me
Show me you dare
We may not venture out in public
At least I know you care
It can't be guaranteed
Just give me what you can of yourself
That's all I need

And I'll keep it confidential
It's secret, confidential
It may come as some surprise
But I can stay secret from prying eyes
So don't worry I'll keep this condifential
Between you and me

(It's secret)
No one will know who I am
I think it's possible
Only to love
(It's secret, confidential)
(It's secret, confidential)

You play such silly games
But if everyone knew about us
I'd feel no shame

But I'll keep it confidential
It's secret, confidential
It may come as some surprise
But I can stay secret from prying eyes
So don't worry I'll keep this condifential
Between you and me
Between you and me

(It's secret, confidential)
(It's secret, confidential)
(Rpt)
