Watching the stars on Primrose Hill
The moon is high and the city's still I came here to escape the chill Of your cold shoulder Evil sometimes the things you say If you really wish I would just go away Why do you cry? Like a little child All your world That's what you say I am I'm working so hard to be a better man You know I'd never ever lie, Never play those games with my mind You'll be the loser You might find Questions lead to answers in time While you're so cold So cold inside (To reach you baby) Remember that fight in Amsterdam When I made you cry 'cause I know I can You could not escape the chill Of my cold, cold shoulder All your world That's what you say I am I'm working so hard to be a better man You know I'd never ever lie, Never play those games with my mind You'll be the loser You might find Questions lead to answers in time While you're so cold I know you're hurting inside Want someone to pay for the tears you've cried Ain't gonna be me Not this time Never lie Never play those games with my mind You'll be the loser You might find Questions lead to answers in time While you're so cold So cold inside Never play those games with my mind You'll be the loser You might find Questions lead to answers in time While you're so cold So cold inside I know you're hurting I'm hurting too But I don't wanna hurt you baby 'Cause I love you But my head says not this time Oh yeah |

(Rap intro by Derick Johnson)
Dangerous lover With the blue-green eyes Slides into the room He's got trouble on his mind Maybe you're misunderstood So come and lie here by my side 'Cause your love it hurts so good Every time, every time Maybe I'm a fool for loving you Maybe I'm a fool Maybe I'm a fool for wanting you Maybe I'm a fool But love's so hard to find I keep searching every time Foolish words spoken Forgotten in the night When the sun meets the ocean I wanna be here by your side Let me give you all those things That money just can't buy 'Cause your love it hurts so good Don't ask me why, don't ask me why Maybe I'm a fool for loving you Maybe I'm a fool Maybe I'm a fool for wanting you Maybe I'm a fool Maybe I'm a fool, but I love you baby, baby... (Rap by Derick Johnson) (I keep searching everytime) Maybe I'm a fool Maybe I'm a fool Baby you're misunderstood So come and lie here by my side Cause your love it hurts so good Don't ask me why, just don't ask me why Maybe I'm a fool for loving you Maybe I'm a fool, I'm a fool, I'm a fool, yeah Maybe I'm a fool for wanting you Maybe I'm a fool, I'm a fool for your loving Right now Love's so hard to find I keep searching every time All the time, all the time Cause I can't live without you Can't live without you Maybe Maybe baby I'm a fool for your loving (repeat until end) |

How can I love you boy when you don't even love yourself?
I'm useless now as I have always been Just like some worthless love song dying on the radio We talk in circles 'til we don't know what we mean No happy ever after, no big dark man Ain't no perfect situation, can't you understand Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you is some strange voodoo How can I help you boy when I can barely help myself? I'm useless now as I have always been Your lying eyes, your thieving hands, you're such a rogue at times But you will always be a part of me No happy ever after, no big dark man Ain't no perfect situation, ain't no master plan Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you I keep loving you yes I do Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you is some strange voodoo No happy ever after, no big dark man, no Ain't no perfect situation, can't you understand Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you I keep loving you yes I do Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you is some strange voodoo Loving you Loving you Loving you |

Another song of woe
Woe sounds like this You say nothing's changed, where were you when my world Was spinning into masquerade You claim it's just a question of mathematics I shut the door on your amateur dramatics Then you think too much And you talk too much, vicariously Yeah you think too much And you talk too much Every word is substance free You're the dirt on my collar You're the hole in my favourite shoe You're the last dying breath of love You're the weight that I need to lose And you hurt yourself You say I'm deranged, I'll admit to being strange But I just can't stop loving you If the light in your eyes Addiction came as a surprise Didn't think I'd be so into you Then you think too much And you talk too much, so carelessly Yeah you think too much And you talk too much Every word is substance free You're the dirt on my collar You're the hole in my favourite shoe You're the last dying breath of love You're the weight that I need to lose You're the dirt on my collar You're the hole in my favourite shoe You're the last, last dying breath of love You're the weight that I need to lose You're the dirt on my collar You're the hole in my favourite shoe You're the last dying breath of love You're the weight that I need to lose |

Never meant to hurt you, I don't know why
You come with your lawyers and your alibi How can you look me straight in the eye When you know The clock on the wall is singing our song The love in my heart is all dead and gone You know why You know why There you go with your confidence trick I'm much too wise, you don't fool me a bit Feeling so low and looking so high We both know that your truth is a lie I never really knew you all these years You lied to my face while I undressed your fears Then you set me a-sail on an ocean of tears Said goodbye The clock on the wall is ticking real slow There's nothing to say and there's nowhere to go You know why You know why There, there you go with your confidence trick I'm much too wise, you don't fool me a bit, no no Feeling so low and looking so high We both know that your truth is a lie It's a lie Looking up to the truth of what you are Blinding all colours and beauty And the sparkle in your eye is blinding The clock on the wall is singing our song The love in my heart is all dead and gone You know why You know why Why, why, why, why, why, why There, there you go with your confidence trick I'm much too wise, you don't fool me a bit Feeling so low and looking so high We both know that your truth is a lie It's a lie, lie (The truth is, the truth is a lie) (repeats in background) And you never stopped loving me Choaking back tears for you So lovable And we never go And we never know See I'm over But I'm under I don't ever wanna come down I don't ever wanna come down I don't ever wanna come down To where you are |

Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low
I leaned back on my radio Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul, he said Then the loud sound did seem to fade Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase That weren't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me - Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie I had to phone someone so I picked on you Hey, that's far out so you heard him too! Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel Two Look out your window I can see the light If we can sparkle he may land tonight Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me - Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie Starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me - Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la-la (repeat until end) Culture Club faithfully covered this David Bowie hit (it reached No.10 in the UK and No.65 in the US in July 1972) on their '98 Re-wind Tour so well that it has become a fixture at Culture Club concerts, got a joint A-Side single with Cold Shoulder and also features on the new album, Don't Mind If I Do. |

I know a song ain't good enough to let you know how I feel
I'll sing it hard, I'll sing it sweet, to let you know that it's real If I change my attitude, maybe I can conquer you completely All the things I say and do, everything I learn from you defeats me And I let you down I let you down I let you down I let you down I know it's wrong to blame the past for everything that I do I fool the world most of the time but there's no fooling you If I change my attitude, maybe I can conquer you completely Everything I say and do, all I learn from you defeat me And I let you down I let you down I let you down I let you down I let you down Let you down What you see ain't always what you get No matter how clear it seems One minute lovers, then the next... Oh oh no Oh no I let you down, yeah yeah I let you down I let you down I let you down I let you down I let you down Let you down Let you down |
