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 |

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. |

Last night you breathed the deepest sigh
Turned away with those cold cool eyes You said won't you give me space to breathe And my tears gave you confidence to leave Now you say I'm just to much for you There are things you'll never know If you lie and cheat so easily You'd better go, go go go, yeah All I know is how I feel And my heart was always yours to steal But you take and never give to me Your kisses are charity Your kisses are charity, yeah Yesterday you were my brightest star But even when you're near I don't know where you are I was wrong to show my weaker side Now it's much too late to cry cry cry I was blind to put my trust in you If you leave me I'll fall apart Did you plan to make a fool out of me From the start, yeah yeah yeah, yeah All I know is how I feel And my heart was always yours to steal But you take and never give to me Your kisses are charity Your kisses are charity, yeah, yeah Now you say I'm too much for you There are things you'll never know If you lie and cheat so easily You'd better go, go go go, yeah All I know is how I feel And my heart was always yours to steal But you take and never give to me Your kisses are charity Your kisses are charity, yeah, yeah |
