If you just give me time
Let me free up my mind I'll be there
You want to be the perfect lover, I know you do
But talk is cheap why does it show

With nothing much to say
I'm here to get busy
I'm here to throw down
I'm here to tell you that

Little Ghost
Here comes the little ghost
Here comes the little ghost
Here comes the little ghost
Oh what a bad mood he's in in the morning
Acting like that is the best thing that's going
Seems like he was always dancing around you
And I remember him spinning all over
I've been here but not for much longer
Go out and get me a hand full of powder
Red eyes and red lips that come up and kiss you
Sun coming up on a big broken picture
Here comes the little ghost
Here comes the freaky boy
Here comes the little ghost
Angel with nothing but make-up and fab things
Diamonds and fur coats and money and gold rings
Pictures of people who love ya and kick things
One for the blue boy and two for the dead kings
Here is an angel with wings on his shoulders
Very expressive cigarette holder
Here is an angel with a bow and arrow
Saying God doesn't know how to put on his halo
Here comes the little ghost
Here comes the freaky boy
Here comes the Rolls Royce
Here comes the little ghost
Here he comes
Here he comes
Here comes the freaky boy
Here comes the Rolls Royce
Here comes the little ghost
Here comes the little ghost
Happy Family
Happy ever after
That's the story that you're told
When you're young, your mother says it's so
But when you hear them fight
In your bedroom late at night
You wonder does she really know
Can't you see
This ain' t the way it's supposed to be
Mother Father Sister Brother
Happy family
Can't you see
I hate the way that you talk to me
Mother Father Sister Brother
Happy family
Jealousy and laughter
Noone ever told you why, oh why
But they stay together always do or die
When he looks at you
Just do as I say not as I do
No wonder that your anger, anger grows
Can't you see
This ain' t the way it's supposed to be
Mother Father Sister Brother
Happy family
Can't you see
I play no part of your misery
Mother Father Sister Brother
Happy family

American Boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
I saw a sweet set of eyes down in makeshift Hollywood
Where the black boys tap New York and the white guys wish they could
He was standing feet sweet looking good to go
I could swing this city but the traffic moves too slow
American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are sweet if you handle it trick or treat
American girls stand tall but American boyz
I saw some crying eyes down on C 'n' 79
There was a hitman on the phone he was try'na crush a friend of mine
Me and Merri were flying just above the flame
Oh lord he was pretty but he loved to smoke cocaine
American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue, yeah
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are so sweet but don't ever be too scared to speak
American girls stand tall but American boyz
Talking about american boys
I made out in the back of a yellow taxi
God it was cold but I took the safest route
I was high, heridity, all the lights poked fun at me
Acid makes you feel like you're in a movie
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall
American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue, yeah
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are so sweet but don't ever be too scared to speak
American girls are cool but American boyz
American boyz are studs on the highway
And life is a quest without recreation
God is a beach so glad you could make it
American boyz one chance better take it
All American
All American boyz
How American is American?
After The Love
After the love has gone
Some kids, only sweet sixteen
Think they're really tough
You could give them everything
It wouldn't be enough
Mothers crying all alone
What did I do wrong?
Raising up a family
You've got to be so strong
After the love has gone
How can we carry on?
After the love has gone
How can we carry on?
Father is a broken man
He drinks to forget
He's searching for the higher gound
But he ain't found it yet
Everyday just like the last
Poverty and lust
So hateful of the richer man
Because he ain't like us
After the love has gone
How can we carry on?
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Like walking into a storm
Walking into a storm
Strangled by religion
Those that still believe
When you don't have nothing
The lord he will relieve
Television lifestyle
People come on down
Welcome to the future
Your feet won't touch the ground
Your feet won't touch the ground
After the love has gone
How can we carry on?
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Like walking into a storm
After The Love was the first single to be released by Boy George's project "Jesus Loves You". This song was written by "Angela Dust", a pen name used by Boy George during his time with Jesus Loves You, and Culture Club's drummer Jon Moss.
Siempre Te Amare
Siempre te amare amare amare
I give her lovin' everyday
And in my heart I always say
There's not enough love in this world

I wait at night for you to come
You are the moon, you are the sun
Siempre te amare

I give my love to you and say
Oh won't you take this pain away
Don't leave me here to die alone
'Cause you are everything I own
I give my love to you
Is that a foolish thing to do?
I walk the streets I call your name
Don't turn our love into a game
Don't turn our love into a game

Generations Of Love
I don't know much but I know what I feel
There's too many people fighting, tied to the wheel
I don't know much but I know what i see
There's too many people crying washed out to sea
And there's much more we can say
And there's much more we can do
And there's much more we can learn
Generations of love
I don't know you but you know what I am
Hey I don't need redemption or no government plan
No big AIDS sensation no 28 clause
The end of aparteid no message of war
The jew and the gentile, the black and the gay
The lost and the futile, they've all got something to say
The african nation, the sword of Islam
The rebels in china, the sikhs and the tams
The house of our father, the volumes of guilt
The luck of the Irish,the blood that we've spilt
The angels and martyrs, the lovers and saints
The sisters of mercy, the brothers of pain
Generations Of Love went to No. 35 in the UK and became a worldwide smash. Although it never charted in the US, it became a hit in dance clubs there. The video clip featured Boy George as a London prostitute!
One On One
One on one that's what I need
A woman sweet like the morning dew
Walked in and took your love away
But when bad times come-a-haunting you
Will she stick around or walk away
I tried to love you but my love you couldn't take
You couldn't stand up to the promises you made
Just like a Judas you took my love and run
But could you love somebody one on one?
One on one is two, two and two is four
Keep your love away from me
I can't take it no more
One on one is two, two and three is five
Keep you love away from me
If you want to stay alive.
One on one
One on one
Another time you would have come to me
And I would have begged you please to stay
It's time to hit that little bed you made
And let her wipe your tears away.
I tried to love you but my love you couldn't take
You couldn't stand up to the promises you made
Just like a Judas you took my love and run
But could you love somebody one on one?
One on one is two, two and two is four
Keep your love away from me
I can't take it no more
One on one is two, two and three is five
Keep you love away from me
If you want to stay alive.
One on one
One on one is two, two and two is four
One on one
One on one is two, two and three is five
That's what I need
One on one is two, two and two is four
Keep your love away from me
One on one is two, two and three is five
One on one
One on one is two, two and two is four
What I need
One on one is two, two and three is five
Keep your love away from me
One on one
One on one is two, two and two is four
That's what I need
One on one
One on one
One on one
One On One was the second release for George under the name Jesus Loves You. A remix by Massive Attack features on the 12".

Love Hurts
Love hurts
You know love hurts
Not everybody knows the way a river flows
Not everybody sees the sun up in the sky
Maybe you and I should not try to plan our lives
If only what we could see what we hold in our hands
Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Feel some pain now, still you wanna try it again
Everybody cries until the day they die
And everybody feels like they're the only one
Maybe you and I should not try to plan our lives
If only we could see what's in front of our eyes, yeah
Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Love hurts every night and day
Love feelings never go away
Real love, it is here to stay with you
Feel some pain now, still you wanna try it again
You're dreaming, you got me scheming
You got me freaking, ooh love hurts
Love hurts, ooh yeah
Maybe you and I should not try to plan our lives
If only we could see what's in front of our eyes
Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Love hurts every night and day
Love feelings never go away
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for you
Love hurts I guess it's useless to say
Love hurts why won't this pain go away
Love hurts
Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Love hurts that's true
Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Love hurts every night and day
Love feelings never go away
Real love, it is here for you
Love Hurts featured on Bow Down Mister's 7" and 12", and a remix later appeared on the compilation album "At Worst, The Best Of Boy George and Culture Club" and EP "The Devil In Sister George" (The original title for the Devil In Sister George EP was "The Pyramids of Sacrifice")
Too Much Love
Too much love
Too much love
Too much, too much love
Too much love
Hey yeah
Too much love
You'll get over it they say
Plenty fishes in the sea
But ooh my life has changed
Since you put your love in me
All my friends with their advice
Trying to help me with my life
And it's sadder
Than the movies that I see
Let me tell you now
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much
Too much love is a bad thing
When I see you on the street
With that sorry looking face
Saying how I done you in
But you know that's not the case
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
It seems like nothing I ever say
Ever pleases you
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much love it's a bad thing
Too much love
Too much love
Too much
You'll get over it they say
Plenty fishes in the sea
But ooh my life has changed
Since you brought your love to me
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
It seems like nothing I ever say
Ever pleases you
Let me tell you now
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much love is a bad thing
Too much love it's a bad thing
Wherever I go
Whatever I do yeah
It seems like nothing I ever say
Ever pleases you
I'm weak and you're strong
I'm wrong and you're right
Too much love
Too much
Too much love
Too much love
Too much love
It's a bad thing yeah
It's a bad thing
It's a bad thing
Sweet Toxic Love
Oh Lord, gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
Oh Lord, gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
I'm not your lover, I wanna be your friend
But I need something, do you comprehend?
It took a long time for this heart to mend
There's something wrong with the love you send
Oh give me strength Oh Lord above
I need some of that sweet toxic love
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up to make me insane
I'm not your punch bag I'm not your floor
You can't walk on me 'til you get bored
Before you break it, you must be sure
That you can't use this love no more
Oh give me strength Oh Lord above
I need some of that sweet toxic love
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up, to make me insane
God would have loved you but he never had the chance
Love it means nothing 'til it's slipping through your hands
And all the people with their problems and their plans
Though it's nothing new for me and you, I still know who I am
Oh give me strength, Oh Lord above ( My sweet Lord)
I need some of that sweet toxic love (Just give me love)
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up, to make me insane
Oh Lord (oh Lord), gimme stregth
Sweet Lord, gimme love (gimme love)
Oh Lord (oh Lord), gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
(just gimme love)
Am I Losing Control?
Sometimes I sit and contemplate
The bitterness of my lonely state
I know, I know I do create
These feelings in my heart
I look to you but you're confused
I feel like I can only lose
Stand a while inside my shoes
Feel the rain come down
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
Sometimes I sit and contemplate
The hatred that I generate
Tell me it is not my fate
To lose before I start
Oh you with eyes like thickened skies
When did ya start to mesmerise
Loving words a thin disguise
You know you are a star
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
I should've changed that stupid lock
I should've made you leave me be
If I'd known for just one minute
You'd become a part of me
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
Oh Lord
Here I clutch my rosaries
And picture God a man
Yes he's standing right in front of me
Yes he knows just what I am
I am frightened by these moments
And the things I can reveal
He says 'Hold on'
You know I love you still
It don't matter
What the good book says
Whether it's good or it's right
I'm gonna do it anyway
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Take me to the river
'Cause the desert is too dry
I'm not asking for redemption
For the things I feel inside
When you found me here in darkness
I was cursing at my fate
Before you leave me standing
It is not too late
Redemption
I don't need no cure
Be your healing hands
On the sick and the poor
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord
Funtime
Baby, baby, we like your lips
Baby, baby, we like your pants
All aboard for funtime

Want to get some and run around
All aboard for funtime
Baby, baby, we like your lips
Baby, baby, we like your pants
All aboard for funtime
Everybody we want in
We want some we want some

Genocide Peroxide
Beautiful child in razor heels
Sashays into the room
All the boys, they catch their breath
And the mirrors swoon
Now she's running down the hall
Head scarf and a Hollywood smile
She's got a dagger in your back
And a killing style
Love and hate, it's all the same your way
Just another twisted game to play
Evil, child star, movie queen
Evil, sweet charm, Mabeline
Evil, no one gets the better of me
Your father's rage and a cocktail dress
With a bullet proof heart
Why is your life in such a mess
If you're so damn smart
Judy Garland, Jimmy Dean
You tragedy queen
Give me fat girls, give me rough boys
Give me what I dream
Love and hate, it's all the same your way
Just another twisted game to play
Evil, child star, movie queen
Evil, sweet charm, Mabeline
Evil,such a pretty boy that I've never seen
Love and hate, it's all the same your way
Just another twisted game to play
Evil, child star, movie queen
Evil, the sweet charm, Mabeline
Evil,noone gets the better of me
Evil
Evil
Evil
noone gets the better
noone gets the better
noone gets the better
Your Love Is What I Am
You scare me sometimes
Cause you take my breath away
Our love is measured
By the foolish games we play
Don't talk of romance
When there's blood upon your hands
You can teach me nothing
Cause your love is what I am
Your love is what I am
Can I eat it?
Your love is what I am
Can I swim in it?
Your love is what I am
Did I dream it?
Your love is what I am
Sweet blood of Jesus
Let me cry into my tears
You're always leaving
And I'm buying all your fear
Now you're walking around
Like some broken apostle
Don't you know that regret is a poisonous thing
This is not a crucifiction
Blindman
White lines on a dirty mirror
My reflection haunting me
Dead eyes and desperation
And my hyprocrisy
You think you're so immune
Go dry your mother's tears
I disconnect from you
Your lying and your flying
I know you love me but keep away
I'm feeling more like myself today
I don't need this drug
I don't need this fix
You better believe I can handle it
Blindman blindman
Dark room strange company
You're making the devil twitch
You look like a corpse tonight
So you think death is hip
I disconnect from you
Your lying and your dying
You're my kind of circle
You're my kind of freak
You're my kind of loser
Let's be incomplete
Same Thing In Reverse
How does it feel, what do you do
When he's all alone with you
Do you kiss him, hold his hand
Who's the woman who's the man
Is it twisted it is sick
Mother nature's little trick
I don't have to feel no shame
In God's image I am made
Your brother doesn't understand
How you could love another man
Your poor father thinks we're cursed
It's the same thing in reverse
It's the same thing in reverse
Nothing better nothing worse
It's the same thing in reverse
It's the same thing it's the same thing
Love is! La de dah
What can you say where do you go
Do you want the world to know
Make a prison of your fear
Be a kamikaze queer
Bite my lip hold my tongue
Hope I'm not the only one
I don't have to be afraid
In God's image I am made
Your brother doesn't understand
How you could love another man
And your poor father thinks we're cursed
It's the same thing in reverse
It's the same thing in reverse
Nothing better nothing worse
It's the same thing in reverse
It's the same thing it's the same thing
Do I love him, yes I love him
So don't question my affection
This is not some damn affliction
It's just love in contradiction
It's the same thing, it's the same thing
Black boys in cars (it's the same thing)
White boys with poisonous hearts (it's the same thing)
Even on the one eyed guru (it's the same thing)
And why the hell you looking at me (it's the same thing)
I never wanted to be part of the gang (it's the same thing)
I never saw this as part of my plan (it's the same thing)
I walk down the street with pride (it's the same thing)
Happy that you're by my side
Unfinished Business
Boy I know your secrets
Though you brag and swagger
And you lay women down
You're the same tough guy
That cried in my arms
And kissed me when the lights went down
I hear you married some Danish girl
I'm so glad that it wasn't me
Cuz you're like so many of those boys I've known
You break your promise easily
Unfinished business, fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business, crawling out of the woodwork
You know how to ruin a good dream
See your life reflected in my painted eyes
These memories are hard to shake
I pressed my lips against your trembling flesh
And waited for your back to break
You liar, you coward, you sleeping fool
Don't you know that secrets kill
Heaven and hell are right here on Earth
Decided by your own free will
Unfinished business, fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business, crawling out of the woodwork
I know how to ruin a good dream
Now go tell your friends that I'm mad in my head
That I don't know what I mean
You walk like Jack and you love like Mary
And you're more than a bit of a queen
Unfinished business, yeah tough guy
You know exactly what I mean
You lie, you lie, you lie
You lie, you lie, you lie
Unfinished business, yeah
You know exactly what I mean
Cheapness and Beauty
This is a real addiction, confusion and cheap tattoos
A princess, a car thief, and a lost shoe
Lonliness, laughter, lust, the promise of pain
Judas in blue jeans tell me your name
Eyes across the room, unspoken
Eyes, glitter promise
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
Glue for the broken toy, the wings for the saint
A buddah, a false God, and some war paint
Wasting your wisdom, yes, but who can you trust
Love holds a mirror up to all of us
Eyes across the room, unspoken
Eyes, glitter promise
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm weak sometimes
It's much too late to say goodbye
Despite all good advice
This pain is such a part of me
I won't apologize
For running to your rescue
Though you slap me in the face
It doesn't really matter
'Cause we always fall in love again
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness
I won't apologise
Cheapness and beauty
I see it in your eyes
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
God Don't Hold A Grudge
Mother hold your breath
'Cause I will never be
Any of the things
That you have planned for me
Mother hold your tears
'Cause I am happy now
My free and independent spirit
Curses me somehow, but I say
You're not the only one
Who lives and breathes this pain
Don't be the holy one
'Cause if he comes again
You're not the only one
And God don't hold a grudge
Father hold your fist
'Cause I will never be
An image of yourself
No perfect family
Father it's too late
To make a man of me
I love against the gods
But I don't scare too easily and I say
You're not the only one
Who lives and breathes this pain
Don't be the holy one
'Cause if he comes again
You're not the only one
State your number and your cause
Your black skin or your menopause
Your cancer your identity
You're not so different to me
You're not the only one
State your number and your cause
Don't be the holy one
Your black skin or your menopause
You're not the only one
Your cancer your identity
Don't be the holy one
You're not so different to me
Sad
Sorry about your life
Sorry about your face
I didn't break your heart
Or tamper with your brakes
You were headed for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you had a difficult life
Maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
My name in neon lights
You got what you deserved
Your sad and miserable life
Sad sad sad sad sad sad
And worse than that you think you're so bad
I could beat ya
I could teach ya
I'm not coming down to meet ya
You're so sad
You're so sad
Sorry about your lies
So who are you calling thief
I didn't cry your tears
And I did not lose your sleep
You were headed for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you had a difficult life
Maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
My name in neon lights
You got what you deserved
Your sad and miserable life, that's right
Sad sad sad sad sad sad
And worse than that you think you're so bad
I could beat ya
I could teach ya
But I'm not coming down to meet ya
You're so sad
You're so sad
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest hipocrite of all
I say you, you say me
Either way we disagree
I won't forget your treachery
So easily
No way
No way
I'm so sorry about your face
I'm so sorry about your life
Your bitterness your spite
So sad
Hateful love sweet enemy
All over me
Sister you wear a freak disguise
Satan's Butterfly Ball
Look at you you're insecure
Running down the street
Screaming for attention
Jokers lips and padded hips
Everybody's laughing
But you don't care
You're sick and you're twisted
Irreverent, so beautiful
Look at me don't stare
I'm already out there
Goodbye butterfly
Goodbye Satan's child
Ah look at you you've got no shame
Enemas, blood, cocaine
Caviar and piss
Disco monster terrorist
Hanging in the tate with
Turner and Van Gogh
Tell me pretty fat boy
Is there something you don't show
Look at me don't stare
I'm already out there
Goodbye butterfly
Goodbye Satan's child
We love the big girls
With tattoos on their wrist
Sweet toys with lost eyes
And big red lips
Give me sadness and badness
Don't ever bring me round
Elevator going up
Reality is a come down
Goodbye butterfly
Goodbye Satan's child
Goodbye
Evil Is So Civilised
Far out across the rooftops
Where the televisions sleep
Behind the perfect picture
Lie fanfitical beliefs
White sheets and burning crosses
Strange fruit, blood on the land
Free will twisted religion
Do you love your fellow man
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I weep
Sometimes I cry
'Cause evil is so civilised
Weak minds and shallow prophets
Send your money and spare your doom
Fear rides the silver bullet
From the pulpit to the womb
Death on the blood red clay
Under the tears moon
Queer killers, redneck saints
Oh God I pray for you
You make me run from God
You make me terrified
I pray the lord your soul to keep
I hope you wake before you die
Dream
To the beat to the beat to the baby baby boom
Whatcha gonna do, gonna please me?
Some black night, who's lurking in the shadows
Full sweet lips, who's gonna take my love
Yeah you hang around here full of promise and deception
Talk is cheap when you're gonna give it up
Every night you know I need you so badly
You've got me dreaming, scheming, loving, hating, complicated
I'm so sick and tired of waiting
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad dream
This ain't no good dream
I hate the way you're treating me
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love will bring me back to you
Can't go to sleep, the demons keep on beating
My heart drum, my heart drum is banging out for you
Feel your hand on my shoulder and a breeze on my spine
Some pain, some pain, give me a good time
Every night you know I need you so badly
You've got me dreaming, scheming, loving, hating, complicated
I'm so sick of waiting
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love gonna bring me back,
Gonna bring me back to you
Got a gun, fix me in, make my head spin
Aw!
Give it up!
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad dream
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Oh oh give it up, give it up
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad bad dream
Night and day, day and night
Is this a good dream?
I hate the way ya .........but I'm coming back
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me
Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love gonna bring me back,
Gonna bring me back to you
Is this a good dream...
No Clause 28
Won't you be elated
To tamper with our pride
They say to celebrate it
Is social suicide
I'm not your average beat boy
I'm not your rebel guy
You want to make us hated
You want to make us slide
No Clause 28
No Clause 28
Brother you're much too late
Don't need this legislation
You don't need this score
Don't need this facist groove
Just to show pornography the door
Don't mean to be too precious
I don't mean to be uptight
But tell me iron lady
Are we moving to the right?
No Clause 28
No Clause 28
Brother you're much too late
They talk about AIDS they call it a curse
But brothers we know it's gonna get worse
You know you won't cure it with TV campaigns
Or telling those mothers what to put in their veins
I'm telling you suckers start using your heads
By putting the money in hospital beds
You're clamping our cars the streets are a mess
Look what you've done to the NHS
Not Tory, not Labour, not SDP
It's all the same from a factory
Don't talk to me about political choice
I don't like your tone and I don't like your voice
No Clause 28

Big Dark Man (Waiting)
Someone said that love
Was a double handed glove
But we need it al the time
Alice she's got mark
Warren's in the dark
Because his body's superfly
Me I'm just a sucker
Waiting for a lover
Someone with a wicked smile
What's a boy to do
What's a girl to do
What's the point to underline
Waiting for a big dark man
She's waiting for a big
Dark man
Someone said that sex
Was a physical contest
But I don't believe a word
They say love is cool
Then they must be fools
Because of all the things
I've heard
Someone said that hippie
Was a little trippy
But he is a friend of mine
Jeremy he throws
But he might overdose
If he finds a girl tonite
Lies
Lie, you live and then you die
When I was seventeen
I used to fool myself
That I was on my own
That there was no one else
I took a look around
And I began to see
The world is full of fools
That feel the same as me
That feel the same as me
Lie all you ever do is lie
Lie all you ever do is lie
I know the road goes up
I know the road goes down
No need to act so tough
Just stay above the ground
You turn your tricks and say
That I should use my eyes
Why don't you move on out
Stop telling me your lies
Stop telling me your lies
What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted
As I walk this land of broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of piece of mind
Help me, please
The roots of love grow all around
But for me they come tumblin' down
Every day hearts grow a little stronger
I can't stand this pain much longer
I walk in shadows searching for light
Cold and alone, no comfort in sight
Always searching for someone to care
Always moving but going nowhere
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of piece of mind
Help me, please
Help me, please
Oh yeah baby won't you help me, please
Help me
I'm searching though I don't succeed
For someone's love there's a growing need
All is love there's no hope for beginning
All that's left is an unhappy ending
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I've been searching everywhere
Just to find someone to care
I've been looking everywhere
I know I'm gonna find it
I know that we'll find it
'Cause we're standing right behind it
Live My Life
I tell you baby, this is no way to live
Make sacrifies, 'til there's nothing to give
Everyone says there's rules to obey
I can't follow when things never change
Holding my chequebook, got a leak in the pipe
Food on the table, but the landlord's knocked twice
I want more than the shit on my back
I've worked too hard just to repeat the past
Satisfaction can be hard to find
I go crazy keeping it all inside
Ain't nobody's business
How I live my life
I learnt my lesson
Whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody baby
Gonna tell me how
I should live my life
Do live my way now
The roof is leaking, stack of pillows on my bed
No way to wake up, all the dreams in my head
Phone don't ring, got no man on the line
Things could be better but I still feel fine
Who can say what tomorrow will bring
You give nothing, expecting everything
Ain't nobody's business
How I live my life
I learnt my lesson
Whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody baby
Gonna tell me how
I should live my life
Do live my way now
Satisfaction can be hard to find
I go crazy keeping it all inside
Ain't nobody's business
How I live my life
I learnt my lesson
Whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody baby
Gonna tell me how
I should live my life
Do live my way now
Live My Life was featured on the soundtrack of Hiding Out, and was George's first solo hit in the US, reaching 40.

I Love You
Love you, blimey, some men are funny
(I love you
Do you love me?
I love you
Do you love me?)
Take a look at yourself my darling
Don't ya like what you see
Dip your foot in the pool and wonder
Is it colder than me?
Take a look at my arms oh baby
See the wounds of my youth
There were times when I could not take it
Seek the negative truth
I love you
Like the stars love the sky
And they're never lonely
I love you
'Cause you're weak, incomplete and
You're never phoney
I love you
Yes I do, yes I do
But you'll never own me
I never said I'd be good in bed
Take a look at me golden hooker
Just you swallow your pride
Take a look at me my good looker
There's a devil inside
Never sleep with your windows open
Never tell them you cry
Never tell them that you feel lonely
Coz they'll spit in your eye
I love you
I used to dream of a stream
But I need an ocean
I love you
Falling head over heels
With the slightest notion
I love you
You can stay for a while
But don't pledge devotion
I never said get inside my head
I love you
I love you I hate you
Don't mean to frustrate you
I love you
I love you I hate you
Don't mean to frustrate you
(Do you love me?)
See the queen
And his old reminder
That you've never been cool
Turn your back 'cause
The spite will blind you
It's incredibly cruel
Take a look at the fools around you
See the beggar inside
There were times when I got so holy
Now I wish I had lied
I love you
Like the stars love the sky
And they're never lonely
I love you
'Cause you're weak, incomplete and
You're never phoney
I love you
Yes I do, yes I do
But you'll never own me
I love you
I love you
I never said I'd be good in bed
I love you
I love you
I never said get inside my head
I love you
I love you
I used to dream of a stream but I need an ocean
I love you
Girl With Combination Skin
Her mother called her angel
So imagine her surprise
When she walked into the party
With a black boy by her side
She said you don't understand me
I can never win
Sometimes I get angry
I'm the girl with combination skin
Her mother called her angel
So imagine her surprise
When she walked out of the bedroom
With a black boy in her eyes
She said you don't understand me
I can never win
Sometimes I get angry
I'm the girl with combination skin
Her mother called her angel
So imagine her surprise
When she walked into the party
With a black boy by her side
She said you don't understand me

Where Are You Now? (When I Need You?)
I'm right where you found me
Someone left me on the street
Life moving around me
I said that I could not be beat
I said I was lonely
On my own I could not stand
You said ain't you only
Everybody's got it bad
Why talk about it
When you know you're gonna lie
Why talk about it
You can't even give me a reason why
Where are you now when I need you?
Where are you now when I need you?
Where are you now when I need you?
I said I was lonely
On my own I could not stand
You said ain't you only
Everybody's got it bad (Everybody's got it bad)
Life's moving around you
Everybody's on the street
Those beggars that found you
They're the ones that say defeat, they do
Why talk about it
When you know you're gonna lie
Why talk about it
You can't even give me a reason why
Where are you now when I need you?
Where are you now when I need you?
Where are you now when I need you?
Don't talk, don't ever talk about it
Don't talk, don't ever talk about it
Don't talk, don't ever talk about it
Where are you now when I need you?
Where Are You Now (When I Need You) was the B-Side for the 7" and 12" of To Be Reborn.
We've Got The Right
Saying sorry
Would mean I've apologised
And you know I was good to you baby
There were very few lies
Now that you ask me
I'm no saint inside
The same things you feel little darling
I don't try to hide
When I think about the laughter
Directed at me
I don't give a damn anymore
If they don't see what I see
We've got the right to love
We've got the chance to make it work
We've got the right to love
Yes we got the right
That's where you get me, yes you do
Almost every time
When it comes down to making love
It has to be right
When I think about the laughter
Directed at me
I don't give a damn anymore
If they don't see what I see
We've got the right to love
We've got the chance to make it work
We've got the right to love
Yes we got the right
Don't put the blame on me
I won't tell you no lies
Don't put the blame on me
Got no time for compromise
We've got the right to love
We've got the chance to make it work
We've got the right to love
Yes we got the right
Keep Me In Mind
You got, you got, you got everything
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to wait around in line
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to waste a lot of time
Love will find the answer
In every little thing you do
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind
'Cause there may not be a second time
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to use words like love
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to put myself above
Love will find the answer
In every little thing you do
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind
'Cause there may not be a second time
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind

I Pray - '87 Remix
You walk sidewalk
And I pray, I pray
And I pray, I pray
I've been on my knees all day
Jerk faced pop star
Driving in your big car
Good looks, strong hooks
Only get you so far
High life, rich wife
Cut you like a knife
And I pray , I pray
I've been on my knees all day
And I pray, I pray
I hear every word you say
Cadillac, club knack
You look red, do drugs
Holler 'cause they're mean thugs
Hot wheel, better deals
Who's been holding his wheels
High life, rich wife
Cut you like a knife
And I pray , I pray
I've been on my knees all day
And I pray, I pray
I hear every word you say
I've got all my money
I've got all my money
I've got all my money
I've got all my money
Jerk faced pop star
Driving in your big car
Good looks, strong hooks
Only get you so far
High life, rich wife
Cut you like a knife
And I pray , I pray
I've been on my knees all day
And I pray, I pray
I hear every word you say
And I pray , I pray
I've been on my knees all day
And I pray, I pray
Don't you hear a word I say
What you say?
I Asked For Love
There might be a question
That you ask before too long
I won't have the answer
But I promise to be stronger
You lied to me, you lied to me
Like I was some fool, yes you did
You lied to me, you cried for me
I told you to keep your cool
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
And to be strong, to be stronger
There was a time
I felt no shame
In asking please, please me
But your rejection
Has brought me to my knees
You lied to me, you lied to me
Like I was some fool, yes you did
You lied to me, but that's history
I told you to keep your cool
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
And to be strong, to be stronger
All the people
Are ready to hold your hand
All the people
Are ready to understand
The things you do
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
But your love has gone
I asked for love
And to be strong, to be stronger
Everything I Own
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, you kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to cry
I don't know why, just don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And is taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Use Me
Waking up beside you
Felt a slap that made you cry
Nowhere else to hide those
Dirty little thoughts of mine
No angel trying to love you, no way
I wouldn't put that by your side
I ain't, I ain't above you, no
I let my morals take a slide
When you know it's over
Why then waste my time, yeah
When you know it's over
Don't tell me it's just one more mountain to climb
Use me
Use me like you found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
No angel trying to love you, no way
I wouldn't put that by your side
I ain't, I ain't above you, no
I let my morals take a slide
When you know it's over
Why then waste my time, yeah
When you know it's over
Don't tell me it's just one more mountain to climb
Use me
Use me like you found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Use me like you found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Use me 'cause you've found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Use me like you found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Use me like you found the time
Use me
Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
Use me
Just Ain't Enough
When you said that you were leaving
I thought I was gonna die
But I'm sick and tired of grieving
I've got to find a reason why
If love is not the answer
Then tell me what it's gonna be
If love is not the answer
Why the hell did you give it to me
Because it ain't enough
Just to call it love
It ain't enough
Just to call it love
When you said that you were leaving (goodbye)
I thought I was gonna die
But I'm sick and tired of grieving
I've got to find a reason why
If love is not the answer
Then tell me what it's gonna be
If love is not the answer
Why the hell did you give it to me
Because it ain't enough
Just to call it love
It ain't enough
Just to call it love
If love is not the answer
Then tell me what it's gonna be
If love is not the answer
Why the hell did you give it to me
Because it ain't enough
Just to call it love
It ain't enough
Just to call it love
Freedom
I read it in the bible
I told you not to waste my time
Why should I be liable
For every situation, and every crime?
I know it's a long way home
When you haven't got a ride
I know it's a long way home
And you know we've been fighting for the longest time
Ain't no freedom like your own
Ain't no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain't no freedom like your own
And you know we've been fighting for the longest time
I told it to some people
But they said the fault was mine
I know it's never easy
I know it's never easy when you walk in line
I know it's a long way home
When you haven't got a ride
I know it's a long way home
And you know we've been fighting for the longest time
Ain't no freedom like your own
Ain't no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain't no freedom like your own
And you know we've been fighting for the longest time
Why do we live this way
Wasting our lives?
Why are the things that we say
Seen as a crime?
I have to live my way
This is my life
I get on my knees and pray
Most of the time
Ain't no freedom like your own
Ain't no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain't no freedom like your own
And you know we've been fighting for the longest time
You Are The Deal
Black woman on the street with attitude
Spits thru her teeth and stares at you
White boy with the living blues
But it's hatred on a crowded tube
Some days I feel real moved
When all I can do is think of you
I feel like I am being used hey-yeah
Well you bruise me and you batter me and you make me feel the tricks
I try to convince myself that I'm strong because of this
My friends say you're beautiful but it's tI'me I got real
And I read my Robert Johnson but I just can't change the way I feel
This murder happens all around my heels
But it ain't real, you are the deal
This poison's flowing all around my head
And here I am alone in bed
Old queen on a ship of fools
You worry that it might sail for you
White lines for the broken youth
Who hasn't got the nerve to question you
Some days I feel real moved
When all I can do is think of you
I feel like I've been abused hey-yeah
Well you bruise me and you batter me and you make me feel dirt
And just for one minute I'd forgotten what I'm worth
My friends say you're beautiful but it's tI'me I got real
And I read my Robert Johnson but I just can't change the way I feel
This murder happens all around my heels
But it ain't real, you are the deal oh yeah
This poison's flowing all around my head
And here I am filled with regret
So is it not enough to just feel the love and give it
Why can't you give it?
And is it not enough to just feel the love and live it
Why can't you live it?
Why can't you give it?
Why can't I give it?
This murder happens all around my heels
But it ain't real, you are the deal oh yeah
This poison's flowing all around my head
And here I am alone in bed / filled with regret
Up And Down
You say the gods don't work for you well they work for me
You've got a wicked lack of faith and it's drowning me
Don't criticise just visualise the colours that you see
The signs of love is strong enough I'm not your enemy
Up and down, up and down we go
Always saying yes really meaning no
It's the game you play I'd love to say
Let go, let go
Up and down as you watch me fall
If you wanted it you could take it all
Shall I kiss your face you're in my space
Let go, you're in my space let go, let go
You say the gods don't work for you well they're lifting me
And you live your life behind my back so I cannot see
I realise to compromise would be a drag for you
Your god is wise your eyes are wide don't treat me like a fool
Up and down, up and down we go
Always saying yes really meaning no
It's the game you play I'd love to say
Let go, let go
Up and down as you watch me fall
If you wanted it you could take it all
Shall I kiss your face you're in my space
Let go, you're in my space let go, let go
Sometimes love just starves away....
You say the gods don't work for you well they work for me
You've got a wicked lack of faith and it's drowning me
Don't criticise just visualize the colours that you see
The signs of love is strong enough I'm not your enemy
Up and down, up and down we go
Always saying yes really meaning no
It's the game you play I'd love to say
Let go, let go
Up and down as you watch me fall
If you wanted it you could take it all
Shall I kiss your face you're in my space
Let go, you're in my space let go, let go
You Fill This Room
The fear of detashman unmeasurable
The beautiful sky has clouded too soon
It's strange how it takes you so long to decide
Well is this love or is it pride
You fill this room
Tough empty hearted
I find it hard to say goodbye
You fill this room
What have you started
There is a force I can't deny
No mather how far you run
The damage is done
You've hurt someone
And so you fill this room
The fear of destruction I can't let it go
I can't live without it but I want it too much
It's strange how it takes you so long to decide
Well is this love or is it pride
You fill this room
Tough empty hearted
I find it hard to say goodbye
You fill this room
What have I started
There is a force I can't deny
No mather how far you run
The damage is done
You've hurt someone
And so you fill this room
Days wrapped up in all the glory
A kiss or a telephone call
When I said you truly bore me
I didn't mean it
I didn't mean it
I didn't mean it at all
No mather how far you run
The damage is done
You've hurt someone
And so you fill this room
You fill this room
You fill this room
Petrified
I hate the way you look at me but you can melt the ... of my life, my life
Such a hateful ...............
Don't you know I'm just a lot like you
I need all the godless things that you do
When you're alone at night, do you run and hide
Are you strong inside, are you full of pride or just petrified
I hate the way you look at me but I can see the terror in your eyes, your eyes
.................... but I don't kill these memories ................, it's alright
Don't you know I'm just a lot like you
I need all the godless things that you do
When you're alone at night, do you run and hide
Are you strong inside, are you full of pride or just petrified
Don't you know I'm just a lot like you
I need all the godless things that you do
When you're alone at night, do you run and hide
Are you strong inside, are you full of pride
When you're alone at night, do you run and hide
Are you strong inside, are you full of pride or just petrified.
It Doesn't Happen Everyday
Look at me and say I'm a victim of desire
A hypocrite in every bit an ordinary liar
Scars will not deceive I will take to my grave
Though I told you many tI'mes this is the wrong way to behave
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday not to me
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
Now we could track the lonely and the last would track the thread
The miss are never easy coz there's plenty and a lot for sale
You are frightened by rejection you're so scared to be alone
You act like you're so free but you're just waiting by the phone
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday not to me
I was trying to be pure but my senses took control
I was weakened by your smile but my heart broke out my soul
Oooh can you forgive me baby
Oooh can you forgive me darling
Oooh can you forgive me baby
Oooh can you forgive me darling
Look at me and say I'm a victim of desire
A hypocrite in every bit an ordinary lier
Scars will not deceive I will take to my grave
Though I told you many tI'mes this is the wrong way to behave
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
It doesn't happen everyday
Dumb Dumb Boys
Excuse me will you smile

Grand Scheme of Things
Let us stand hatred sins
Your fistmark on my wall
Words that cut you down the lies
Bring the ocean to your eyes
Is it you is it me
Keep your cheap philosophy
For someone who's done in love
To overdose on quickly love
Every second every hour
That you take away my power
No one knows what fortune brings
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things you and I are very small
In the grand scheme of things we know nothing at all
Let us stand knowing more
Just mystery and lies
Holding out your begging bowl
Got my teardrops in your eyes
Is it me is it you
Such a hateful thing to do
You can one love enough
To hold on to quickly love
Every second every hour
That you take away my power
No one knows what fortune brings
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things
You and I are very small
In the grand scheme of things
We know nothing at all
In the grand scheme of things
You and I are very small
In the grand scheme of things
We know nothing at all
(Rap section)
Every second every hour
That you take away my power
No one knows what fortune brings
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things
You and I are very small
In the grand scheme of things
We know nothing at all
In the grand scheme of things
You and I are very small
In the grand scheme of things
We know nothing at all
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things
In the grand scheme of things

Are We In Love or Just Killing Time
Another wrapped up clown I feel just like a child
Dizzing on the rollercoaster of desire
If opposites attract then this was meant to be
Could you find the ways in your broken heart for me
I know you think it's wrong to take the things you need
But for the upper god we're shaking through this dream
Are we in love yeah
Are we just killing time
I would do anything to fill this fake and see you cry
Are we in love yeah
Are we in love
They say there is no cure your innosence is sweet
Did you find your ways in your twisted mind for me
Away away away I'm such a patient boy
The way this room is cold are meaning to my soul
I know you think it's wrong to have the things you need
But for the upper god we're shaking through this dream
Are we in love yeah
Are we just killing time
I would do anything to fill this fake and see you cry
Are we in love yeah
Are we in love
I know you think it's wrong to take the things you need
But for the upper god we're shaking through this dream
Are we in love yeah
Are we just killing time
I would do anything to fill this fake and see you cry
Are we in love yeah
Are we in love
All Things Wise
Weakness is my child lying in the wood
Crying all the way from the cradle to the tomb
See my mother's tears roll down from her sad eyes
Wishing I could change her life
Talk about my destiny I don't understand
Maybe it's too obvious for any angry man
All things wise yearned by my eyes
All things wise
All things wise yearned by your eyes
All things wise
Suicidal boy in a darkened room
No one can convince him he'll be happy soon
No one heard his tears and no one saw the signs
They stopped to watch you all grow for you will die inside
Talk about my destiny I am more than flesh
And if Jesus will contempt me there is one thing you forget
All things wise yearned by my eyes
All things wise
All things wise yearned by your eyes
All things wise
Fill a child with hatred man don't see the madness in his eyes
Let anger be your safety god I cannot say that you are blind, you are blind yeah
Polity is a word to those who have a choice
Hunger is a season that noone should retrace
Half the demons sing the lord in your eye
The devils on the highway killed the angels in the sky
All things wise yearned by my eyes
All things wise
All things wise yearned by your eyes
All things wise
All things wise
20th Century Jesus
Spilled down on the road
You wanna know just how I feel
Self-destruction is your course
To be crucified for sure
Look at you, you've got it all
Perfect lips no selfesteem
In my mirror god's reflection
But you don't know what it means
And it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor
When you're mother's on the road
You dive to far to heas the court
You're on your own 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
Right down on your knees
It all I know just how you feel
Isolation is your fear
But you just won't let me near
Look at you, you've got it all
Pretty face is there to see
In the mirror god's reflection
But you just cannot believe
And it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor
When your father's eyes are cold
You dive to far to heas the court
You're on your own 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
When you fell from the box I didn't chose
I dried your eyes
When we suffered this crucifiction
Too many times
Nooo what have I done
Ooh god's only son
No the rays are black
Shine on you tonight
And it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor
When your father's eyes are cold
You dive to far to heas the court
You're on your own 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
Go all alone like a 20th century Jesus
