You should be stronger than me
You've been here 7 years longer than me Don't you know you supposed to be the man, Not pal in comparison to who you think I am, You always wanna talk it through - I don't care! I always have to comfort you when I'm there But that's what I need you to do - stroke my hair! Testi Canzoni Cos' I've forgotten all of young love's joy, Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy, You should be stronger than me, But instead you're longer than frozen turkey, Why'd you always put me in control? All I need is for my man to live up to his role, Always wanna talk it through - I'm ok, Always have to comfort you every day, But that's what I need you to do - are you gay? Cos' I've forgotten all of young love's joy Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy He said 'the respect I made you earn - Thought you had so many lessons to learn' I said 'You don't know what love is - get a grip!' - Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime I just wanna rip your body over mine So tell me why you think that's a crime I've forgotten all of young love's joy Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy You should be stronger than me… |

<Verse 1>
Lent you outsidaz and my new Badu while I was thinking you didn`t have a clue tough to sort files with your voice in my head So then I bribed you downstairs with a malboro red So now I feel so small discovering you knew How much more torture would you have put me through? you probably saw me laughing at all your jokes or how I did not mind when you stole all my smokes <Chorus 1> And although my pride is not easily disturbed you sent me flying when you kicked me to the kerb With you battered jeans and your beastie tee Now I can`t work like this you next to me <Verse 2> And although he is nothing in the scheme of my years it just serves to blugdeon my furile tears And I`m not use to this, I observe, I don`t chase So now I`m stuck with consequences, thrust in my face And the melodramas of my day delivery blows that surpass your rejection it just goes to show a simple attraction that reflects right back to me so I`m not as into you as I appear to be <Verse 3> His message was brutal but the delivery was kind maybe if I get this down I`ll get it off my mind It serves to condition me and smoothen mi kinks despite my frustation for the way that he thinks and I knew the truth, when it came, would be to that effect At least you`re attracted to me which I did not expect didn`t think you get my number down and such but I never hated myself for my age so much <Chorus3 > And although my pride`s not easily disturbed you sent me flying when you kicked me to the kerb With you battered jeans and your beastie tee Now I can`t work like this with you next to me |

When you walk in the bar,
And you dressed like a star, Rockin' your F me pumps. And the men notice you, With your Gucci bag crew, Can't tell who he's lookin' to. Cuz you all look the same, Everyone knows your name, And that's you whole claim to fame. Never miss a night, Cuz your dream in life, Is to be a footballers wife. You don't like players, That's what you say-a, But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire. You don't like ballers, They don't do nothing for ya, But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller. You're more than a fan, Lookin' for a man, But you end up with one-nights-stands. He could be your whole life, If you got past one night, But that part never goes right. In the morning you're vexed, He's onto the next, And you didn't even get no taste. Don't be too upset, If they call you a skank, Cuz like the news everyday you get pressed. You don't like players, That's what you say-a, But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire. Or them big balers, Don't do nothing for ya. But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller, You can't sit down right, Cuz you jeans are too tight, And your lucky its ladies night. With your big empty purse, Every week it gets worse, At least your breasts cost more than hers. So you did Miami, Cuz you got there for free, But somehow you missed the plane. You did too much E, Met somebody, And spent the night getting cane. Without girls like you, There'd be no fun, We'd go to the club and not see anyone. Without girls like you, There's no nightlife, All those just go home to their wives. Don't be mad at me, Cuz your brushing thirty, And your old tricks no longer work. You should have known from the job, That you always get dumped, So dust off your F me pumps. |

I couldn't resist him
His eyes were like yours His hair was exactly the shade of brown He's just not as tall, but I couldn't tell It was dark and I was lying down You are everything he means nothing to me I can't even remember his name Why are you so upset? Baby, you weren't there and I was thinking of you when I came What do you expect? You left me here alone I drank so much and needed to touch Don't over react I pretended he was you You wouldn't want me to be lonely How can I put it so you understand? I didn't let him hold my hand But he looked like you I guess he looked like you No he wasn't you But you can still trust me, this ain't infidelity It's not cheating oh, you were on my mind Yes he looked like you But I heard love is blind |

There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you No sweeter song, no heart so true There is no greater thrill Than what you bring to me No sweeter song Than what you sing, sing to me You're the sweetest thing I have ever known And to think that you are mine alone There is no greater love In all the world, it's true No greater love Than what I feel for you |

Wish I could say it breaks my heart
Like you did in the beginning It's not that we grew apart A nightingale no longer singing It's something I know you can't do Separate sex with emotion I sleep alone, the sun comes up You're still clinging to that notion Everything is slowing down River of no return Recognize my every sound There's nothing new to learn You'll never get my mind right Like two ships passing in the night In the night, in the night Want the same thing when we lay Otherwise mine's a different way A different way from where I'm going Oh, it's you again Listen this isn't a reunion So sorry if I turn my head Yours is a familiar face But that don't make your place safe In my bed, my bed, my bed I never thought my memory of what we had could be intruded but I couldnt let it be I needed it as much as you did Now it's not hard to understand Why we just speak at night The only time I hold your hand Is to get the angle right Everything is slowing down River of no return You recognise my every sound There's nothing new to learn You'll never get my mind right Like two ships passing in the night In the night, in the night Want the same thing where we lay Otherwise mine's a different way It's a different way from where I'm going Oh, it's you again Listen this isn't a reunion So sorry if I turn my head Yours is a familiar face But that don't make your place safe In my bed, my bed, my ba ba dee dee bed |

Your neighbours were screaming
I don't have a key for downstairs, so I punched all the buzzers hoping you wouldn't be there So now my head's hurting You say I always get my own way But you were in the shower when I got there, I'd have wanted to stay, but I got nothing to say Cos you were so beautiful before today But then I heard what you got to say...man that was ugly The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas Put it in the box, put it in the box Frank's in there and I don't care Put it in the box, put it in the box Just take it Take the box Take the box I came home this evening and nothing felt like how it should be I feel like writing you a letter but that is not me...you know me Feel so f*cking angry; don't wanna be reminded of you But when I left my sh*t in your kitchen, I said goodbye to your bedroom it smelled of you Mr False Pretence, you don't make sense I just don't know you But you make me cry, where's my kiss goodbye? I think I love you The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas Put it in the box, put it in the box Frank's in there and I don't care Put it in the box, put it in the box Now take it Take the box Just take it, take it Take the box And now just take the box Take the box Take the box |

Today my bird flew away
gone to find her big blue jay Starlight before she took flight I sung a lullaby of bird land everynight i sang a lullaby every night sung for my Ava every night Ava was the morning, now she's gone she's reborn like Sarah Vaughan In the sanctuary she has found birds surround her sweet sound and Ava flies in paradise and Ava flies in paradise With dread I woke in my bed two shooting pains up in my head Lovebird, my beautiful bird Spoke until one day she couldn't be heard she spoke until one day she couldn't be heard and she just stopped singing Ava was the morning, now she's gone she's reborn like Sarah Vaughan In her sanctuary she has found birds surround her sweet sound and Ava flies in paradise and Ava flies in paradise |

Understand once he was a family man
so surely I would never, ever go through it first hand Emulate all the shit my mother hated I can't help but demonstrate my Freudian fate My alibi for taking your guy History repeats itself, it fails to die And animal aggression is my downfall I don't care 'bout what you got I wanted all It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed And I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? My destructive side has grown a mile wide and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing And I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing And I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears for behavioural patters that stick over the years It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? My destructive side has grown a mile wide and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? |

When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused There must have been but I don't care I feel the way your soul does there Darling they empathize Looking through your bloodshot eyes And I know you you're so frustrated Above we all become what we once hated Be slight nobody can be that wise I can't help you if you won't help yourself No I can't help you if you don't help yourself You can only get so much from someone yeah You can get so much from me I can't help you if you won't help yourself You've got a degree in philosophy So you think you're cleverer than me (cause you so smart) But I'm not just some drama queen (drama queen) 'Cause it's where you're at not where you've been So what do you expect from me (what do you want) To hold your head above the sea (keep you high and dry) And there are you even though you're bigger 'Cause don't you know you crush my tiny figure And anyway we're still so young (yeah I'm so young) And this isn't yet the day I can't help you if you won't help yourself No I can't help you if you don't help yourself (You won't help yourself) You can only get so much from someone yeah I can't help you if you won't help yourself You might be twenty-five but in my mind I see you at sixteen years or most of the time And I'm just a child and you're full grown And no I'm nothing like I've ever known yeah You are like nothing that I ever knew |

Attract me, til it hurts to concentrate,
Distract me, stop me doing work I hate And just to show him how it feels I walk past his desk in heels One leg resting on the chair From the side he pulls my hair. Amy Amy Amy Although I've been here before Amy Amy Amy He's just too hard to ignore Masculine you spin a spell I think you'd wear me well Amy Amy Amy Where's my moral parallel? It takes me, half an hour to write a verse He makes me imagine it from bad to worse My weakness for the other sex Every time his shoulders flex The way the shirt hangs off his back My train of thought spins right off track Amy Amy Amy Although I've been here before Amy Amy Amy He's just too hard to ignore Masculine he spins a spell I think he'd wear me well Amy Amy Amy So where's my moral parallel? His own style, right down to his Deisel jeans Immobile, I can't think by any means Underwear peaks at the top I'll let you know when you should stop From the picture my mind drew I know I'd look good on you Amy Amy Amy Although I've been here before Amy Amy Amy You're too hard to ignore Masculine you spin a spell I think you'd wear me well Amy Amy Amy So where's my moral parallel? Creative energy abused All my lyrics go unused When I clock black hair blue eyes I drift off I fantasize Amy Amy Amy Although I've been here before Amy Amy Amy He's just too hard to ignore Masculine he spins a spell I think he'd wear me well Amy Amy Amy So where's my moral parallel? Amy Amy Amy Although I've been here before Amy Amy Amy He's just too hard to ignore Masculine he spins a spell I think he'd wear me well Amy Amy Amy Where's my moral parallel? |
