Lyrics

Bilingual
Won't you give me just a minute here, for heaven's sake
Got Mother Nature burning at the stake
God is slicing up the cake like pigs in clover
Wanna soar, wanna glide, wanna run with the breeze
In circumstances such as these
It's enough to keep your sky from folding over
Oh boy, won't you give it up?
All night like the needle got stuck
D'you ever stop?
ย
Just once, could you lighten up?
You want it all with a cherry on top
I wonder what you're so frightened of
Girl, I love it, you're so free from care
You see the good in people everywhere
While me, I stare but all I see are the same patterns
Got a smile in your eyes, keeping me arm's length
If you ain't got the guile then what use is strength
You're running rings 'round me like Saturn
Oh boy, won't you give it up?
All night like the needle got stuck
D'you ever stop?
ย
Comes a time when it's kicking off
Ding-ding really cutting up rough
Are you man enough to say it soft?
ย
I'm tired of living for things that I just can't touch
A penny for your thoughts, you're not saying much
You were never one to sugar coat it
Well, damn this melody, yeah, damn this tune
Damn the lyric running 'round my head all afternoon
Damn the swooning sentimental tunesmith wrote it
Oh boy, won't you give it up?
All night like the needle got stuck
D'you ever stop?
ย
Comes a time when it's getting rough
Ding-ding really kicking off
Are you man enough to say it soft?
Boy, listen up
I heard quite enough of this fighting talk, baby
Boy, listen up
I heard quite enough of this fighting talk
And I wonder what (oh boy, won't you give it up?)
I wonder what (all night like the needle got stuck)
You're so frightened of, baby
I wonder what
I wonder what
I wonder what
ย
Oh boy, won't you give it up?
All night like the needle got stuck
D'you ever stop? D'you ever stop, d'you ever?
Comes a time when it's getting rough
Ding-ding really kicking off
Are you man enough?
Are you man enough to say it soft?
To say it soft
