Marc Almond - The Animal In You lyrics
Your rating:
I was always a lonely boy I hid little toys in my pockets Friends to help me through the heartache I never acted like a boy All boys were cruel and so was I And my breathing detonator pum-pum-pumping And we’d fight in the dust and dirt Both of us revert to the animal in us I noticed your eyes today, avoiding me today You humor me, smile, try to keep me at bay I know you mean well Or so you justify by the words You are attempting to say And what have you ever done for me? What have you ever done for me? Weeks between love are so long and cool Keeping me together is using up the fuel The fire is eating up the furnace inside I use up the last flames loving you Your love is tender when it’s cruel Your love is my door to the unreal Your love is the key, feel, the way I feel The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I... What have you ever done for me? What have you ever done for me? When you smash up my room When you smash up my room When you twist my arm When you twist my arm Always testing, trying, testing Trying to find out if I’m lying, you shout What have you ever done for me? (x4) Your love is tender when it’s treating me cruel Flashing around the animal in you What have you ever done for me? What the hell have you ever done for me? Tell me you love me, it makes me cry All my nerve endings curl up and die And that’s no way to act for a boy (x2) Not another twisted love (x4) What have you ever done for me? (x5) Not another twisted love (x4) Dream of a million tortures And they’d all be too good for you
