Ich Bin Kunst (I Am Art) Lyrics – Boy George

Hahahahaha

Ich Bin Kunst
Can't you see?
Look at you
Then look at me
I am art
You're parody!
Ich Bin Kunst

Je suis art (tres tres debonair)
Because you don't
Because I dare
I blow your mind
C'est mon plaisir
Ich Bin Kunst

It started when I was only a boy
I couldn't kick a ball, climb a tree, play at war
I took pleasure in the things that make men shudder
I dressed up in the wardrobe of my mother!

My father said 'Don't panic, it's a phase'
Phase One, I said and snipped and sewed for days
I dreamed of London town, ardent fashion was my thing
I arrived and took a job in Burger King
(it was nothing!)

Ich Bin Kunst
Can't you see?
Look at you
Then look at me
I am art
Ha, you're parody!
Ich Bin Kunst

Je suis art (tres tres tres debonair)
Because you don't
and because I dare
I blow your mind
C'est mon plaisir
Ich Bin Kunst

St. Christopher Lyrics – Boy George

Sexual attraction, its all in the eye
Like oil on water, aint no reason why
Somebody rejects you, don't you feel like you could die
Oh spare me don't give me non of that, you knew crap
Cos your lying here with your pretty head in my lap

Stripped to the waist, higher than the stars
We all need tenderness sometimes, so we know who we are
Just for a moment I looked in the mirror and saw
my ugliness looking so insecure

I know whats up fool you got the bug
You're drunk on the stuff you're in love with love
Don't be no sucker your heart is tough
It ain't about him your in love with love

Sweet St. Christopher you got a cheeky grin
And you took me home instead of him
But in love or war no one ever wins
Oh do me a favour spare me all that crap
You ain't no spider in a web and you were'nt trapped
Just for a moment I thought I had really scored
Then I felt like a devil and you looked extremely bored

I know whats up fool you got the bug
You're drunk on the stuff you're in love with love
Don't be no sucker your heart is tough
It ain't about him your in love with love

Your in love with love
Everyones in love with love
Im in love, Im in love with love

Didn't someone once tell ya you're a god damn flirt
But what you refuse to hear, it can never hurt
But I still dig you baby, for what it's worth
And please think of me next time your poor heart hurts

She Was Never He Lyrics – Boy George

Natasha was a stunning vision
Painted eyes with such precision
Longer legs than any girl i know
Switching down on Old Kent Road
With her lips on overload
Making sure the loneliness don't show
She was never he
For as long as I remember
She was never off her gender categorically
She was never he
Though the boys at school were cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
That she was never...
Jody she was 'quelle surprice'
Fooled the boys with such a breeze
But inside her heart the terror flows
What if he should realize
Break her heart or black her eyes
These things are so important for a girl to know
She was never he
For as long as I remember
She was never off her gender categorically
She was never he
Oh this world can be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
And the government says you no longer excist
It's a kick in the eye, it's the final twist
Of the Surgeons Knife
Welcome to my glamorous life
Oh the big dark man will he turn a blind eye
Love me for who i am turned me out and made me cry
She was never he
For as long as i remember
She was never off her gender categorically
She was never he
Oh this world can be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
That she was never he

Cheapness And Beauty Lyrics – Boy George

This is a real addiction
confusion and cheap tattoos
A princess
a car thief
and a lost shoe
Loneliness
laughter and 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
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 need you 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
Thoug you slap me in the face
It doesn't really matter
cos we always fall in love again

Fat Cat Lyrics – Boy George

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 sighing 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

If I Could Fly Lyrics – Boy George

Stone by the river
got no wind in my sail
No revolutions in my soul
Hey, revelation's just
a moment away
Soon I'm gonna be old
soon you're gonna be old
Remember love is not
something you can keep
It just takes the wind
to blow it away
You look so ugly
as you lie there asleep
Boy you're pretty today
so pretty today
When I was born they poisoned my mind
They told me to fight but I'm not that kind
They said I was meek but I did not mind
It's a case of the weak chasing the blind
I see the stars have spelt
your name in the sky
I wrote it too down
here in the sand
When I first met you
you stirred nothing at all
See the cards in your hand
see the cards in your hand
And
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
I'd take to the sky
I feel so special when
I'm making you cry
I regret the things
I throw in your face
This drug will kill you darling
this is no lie
This dragon we chase
this dragon we chase
And
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
I'd take to the sky

Unfinished Business Lyrics – Boy George

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
'Cause 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
Hey 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
You know exactly what I mean
You lie, you lie, you lie
You lie, you lie, you lie
Unfinished business, yeah tough guy
You know exactly what I mean

Julian Lyrics – Boy George

Felt like my live revolved behind your hazel eyes
Those scatter-cushion lips, eyelashes that flutter like a butterfly
Your arms around me in the morning oh in the catalogue of life
So many things just don't add up
your just a child why should I be surprised
Why can't you pick up the phone
Oh how gutless can you be
Run as far as you can
You'll never escape me

Oh Julian don't tell me it was all just lies
Oh Julian don't keep it all internalized
Oh Julian your just a small boy in a big mans world

I said some foolish things but you took my voice away
Like an audience of one, such a lonely game to play
Hey you feel so much, have you nothing more to say
Except just leave me alone
we'll both laugh about this one day
Don't tell me the world is changing
You're living proof of just how uptight it can be
And a fag who hates himself is her own worse enemy

Oh Julian was it anything for fame
Oh Julian will ya do it all again
Oh Julian the fizz has gone from your champagne

I hold nothing back, I give it all away
I am the Thunder 317
blue eyed, vulnerable seeking and similar
Camp-acting, very scene, Im flaming, Im screaming
looking for someone brave enough to love me

Oh Julian don't tell me it was all just lies
Oh Julian don't keep it all internalized
Oh Julian your just a small boy in a big mans world

Wrong Lyrics – Boy George

Allow me my own diginity...

I came to the city with my head so full of dreams
The city was safe alright but not from me
See I've been in trouble since I lay my suitcase down
I love the sound of my own voice, but now I want it drowned

I've got nothing to be proud of
There's so little I possess
I gave away my love and my, my diginity
And somehow I covered up the rest

How did it all go so wrong?
It was nothing like this in the magazines
I can hear my fathers voice, hear his laughter in the wind
saying boy you'll never amount to anything

I clutched at desire I never listened to my heart
I didn't know I had one, that it could beat so fast
Oh I've been a user, such a liar, such a fake
Always thinking of myself, always on the make

Now I've got nothing I can give you
Except self-pity and regret
but if you let me prove I love you
I'll be the one boy you'll never forget

How did it all go so wrong?
It was nothing like this on the Tv screen
I can hear my mothers voice, hear her crying in the wind
saying boy, baby boy, you can be anything

How did it all go so wrong?
It was nothing like this in the magazines
I can hear my fathers voice, hear his laughter in the wind
He was right, I'll never be anything
He was right, I'll never be anything

Letter For A School Friend Lyrics – Boy George

I read your letter and I wept inside
You and me were so much alive
So much pain so many tears to hide
But I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now

Your mother rejected you and your brother died
and your old man had such brutal pride
he just couldn't take your sensitive side
But I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now
I hope your happy

I read your letter and I laughed out loud
You were crazy then and you're still crazy now
A schoolgirl rebel not some face in the crowd
But I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now

Your daddy was cruel you mothers spirit was free
She left you alone to go and dance on the beach
Yeah and we were the freaks who they could not teach
But I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy now
I hope your happy

I wish you love cos your heart is pure
From the hell of school to the closet door
They said we were fools but we need so much more yeh yeh
I hope your happy now

I read your letter and I wept inside
You and me were so much alive
So much pain so many tears to hide
But I hope your happy now
Yes I hope your happy
Yes I hope your happy now
I hope your happy
Yes I hope your happy now
Hope your happy
Hope your happy now

The Deal Lyrics – Boy George

Black woman on the street with attitude
Spits through her teeth and stares at you
White boy with the living blues
Spreads his hatred on a crowded tube
Some days I feel removed
But all I can do is think of you
I feel like I am being used yeh yeh

Well you bruise me and you batter me
and you make me feel the twist
I try to convince myself
that im strong because of this
My friends say Im beautiful
But it's time to get real
I try to find some hatred
But I can't change the way I feel

And this murder happens all around my heals
But it aint real you are the deal
And theres poison flowing all around my head
And here I am all alone in bed

OId queen on the ship of fools
you're worried that it might sail for you
White lies from the broken youth
Who hasn't got the nerve to counsell you
Some days I feel amused
But all I can do is think of you
I feel like I've been such a fool yeh yeh

Well you bruise me and you batter me
and you make me feel like dirt
And just for one minute
I've forgotten what I'm worth
My friends say you're beautiful
But it's time I got real
Im staring at your picture
But I can't change the way I feel

And this murder happens all around my heals
But it aint real you are the deal
And this poisons flowing all around my head
And here I am filled with regret

Is it not enough
to just feel the love
and give it
why cant you give it
Is it not enough
to just feel the love
and live it
why cant you live it
why cant you give it
oh why cant you give it
why cant you give it
oh why cant you give it
You are the deal
You are the deal
You are the deal
You are the deal

Losing Control Lyrics – Boy George

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?

Same Thing In Reverse Lyrics – Boy George

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
is it 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
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
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 feel no shame
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
Do I love him
yes I love him
So don't question my affection
This is not some damn afliction
It's just in contradiction
Black boys in carsm and
White boys with poisonous hearts
Even on the one eyed guru
Why the hell are you looking at me now I say
I never wanted to a part of the gang
I never saw this as part of my plan
I walk down the street with pride
Happy that you're by my side

Il Adore Lyrics – Boy George

Mother clutches the head
of her dying son
Anger and tears
So many things to feel
Sensitive boy
Good with his hands
No one mentions the unmentionable
But everyone understands
Here in this cold white room
Tied up to these machines
It's hard to imagine him
as he used to be
Laughing, screaming
tumbling queen
Like the most amazing light show
you've ever seen
Whirling, swirling
never blue
How could you go and die
what a lonely thing to do
Silence equals death
this is what they say
But the anger and the tears
Cannot take the pain away
How far must it go
How near must it be
Before it touches you
Before it touches me
Here in this cold white room
Tied up to these machines
It's hard to imagine life
as it used to be
Laughing, screaming
tumbling queen
Like the most amazing light show
you've ever seen
Whirling, swirling
never blue
How could you go and die
what a selfish thing to do
Did you ever ask those strangers
what they're searching for
Did they laugh and tell you they're not really sure
You were hurt by love
But still you came right back for more
Il adore
Il adore
Il adore

Bow Down Mister Lyrics – Boy George

From Bombay to Bangalore
Al the Hindus know the score
If you wanna live some more
Hare, hare, hare
If you do not take the vow
You can eat the sacred cow
You'll get karma anyhow
Hare, hare, hare
Bow down mister
Hare rama, Hare krishna
Bow down mister
We say radha syam
Do the right thing with your hands
Lay down on the pleasing sands
Whatever else your faith demands
Hare, hare, hare
From Bombay to Rajastan
Nitai guara, radha syam
Hare krishna hare ram
Hare, hare, hare
In the desert Jahshamire
They put kun kun in their hair
At the westemers they stare
Hare, hare, hare
Paint a tilak on your brow
Open like a lotus flower
It's time to check your karma now
Hare, hare, hare

"The Unrecoupable One Man Bandit" (1998)

G.I. Josefine Lyrics – Boy George

I serve my country well
In slingbacks and beret
I march on your hypocrisy
Cause I am feeling queer today
As bright as all your medals
And shiny epaulettes
But I can't go to war right now
Cause my hair is a mess
Ah don't ask don't tell
Dominate me with your smell
Perfume powder treachery
Loaded guns and sodomy
Soak me down with your desire
In the shower under fire
Wave the white flag keep it clean
Call me G.I. Josephine
The dykes are on the starboard
There polishing the guns
There battening the hatches
As tough as any mothers son
Ain't no pro-creation
No baby cribs at sea
No friggin' in the riggin'
You can leave the boys for me
Ah don't ask don't tell
Dominate me with your smell
Perfume powder treachery
Loaded guns and sodomy
Soak me down with your desire
In the shower under fire
Wave the white flag keep it clean
Call me G.I. Josephine
Come on
come out
And it's one two three
I don't live by the book
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
I don't wanna be a man
And it's five six seven
Open up the pearly gates
Ain't no time to wonder why
Anyone can die
Ah don't ask don't tell
Dominate me with your smell
Perfume powder treachery
Loaded guns and sodomy
Soak me down with your desire
In the shower under fire
Wave the white flag keep it clean
Call me G.I. Josephine

Mr. Strange Lyrics – Boy George

I never liked you much
It's true
It's true
But forgive the hateful
Things I say and do
'Cos I do
The world is a mirror
And I see the things I hate
Every accusation that I dare to make
Here comes Princess Julia
Looking like a godess
'Til she opens her mouth
Lola Hola is spinning round
Stella wants vodka
And she wants it now
Oh Mr. Strange
Oh Mr. Strange
Oh Mr. Strange
You're very weird
I never liked myself it's true
Well it's true
That's why I took my bitterness on you
Well I do
I look into the mirror
And I see the things I hate
Love to change the picture
But it's much too late
Here come Princess Julia
Looking like a godess 'til she opens her mouth
Lola Hola is spinning round
Stella wants vodka
And she wants it now
Oh Mr. Strange
Oh Mr. Strange
Oh Mr. Strange
You're very weird
Sister Philip bitchin' on the telephone
Some handsome scary creature
Followed Missy home
It's a dangerous game you play
So hide those wedgewood plates today
'Cos all the love is take away
I know
I know
Told you this was lie
So very strange
Superstar strucked
Mr Strangeways
Strangeways
Oh Mr. Strange

Number One Lyrics – Boy George

I'm no Norma Desmond
Though I live for the applause
I know fame is a symptom
Of a far greater cause
Oh rock'n roll is tragedy
'Cause all the gals get old
You weep into the mirror
Cause the record never sold
If you loved me
I'd be No.1
If you loved me
I'd never come undone
If you loved me
I'd be Madonna rich
If you loved me
I'd be one lucky bitch
If you loved me
you really love me
I don't really care
About the frailty of fame
I laugh at my reflection
Even when I play the game
Oh rock'n roll illusion
Temporary master plan
You scrutinize the picture
But do you ever see the man
But if you loved me....
He's too damaged you're too needy
turn your back and call his bluff
Falt apart love ain't gready
Loneliness is not enough
Not enough
Not enough
But I need that stuff
If you loved me....
About the lawyers and the taxman
And the boys from my past
Are the rumours really true
Well I thought you'd never ask
Are you taking me to bed uh
Are we dancing in the rain
If I really feel your hurt
I won't ever call again

Spooky Truth Lyrics – Boy George

Come on down and meet yourself
All your former glory
You should know the rules by now
That's another story
Can I look beyond your promises
To where my future lies
Can I rise to your dishonesty
Too much compromise
This is the spooky truth
Ain't no hope ain't no use
This is the spooky truth
And my heart won't be denied
One more night
There's no use denying
We can write the ending now
All the tears and the frustration
All the why, and what, and how
Can I look into the future
See your spirits rise
Can
We advise on truth and passion
All our sorry lies
This is the spooky truth
Ain't no hope ain't no use
This is the spooky truth
Ain't no love ain't no proof
This is the spooky truth
And my heart won't be denied
One more night

In Maya Lyrics – Boy George

Boy I like the way you stand
there's no blood upon your hand
you turn the world around for me
chased the fools out of my life
when I'm wrong you'd set me right
you are really waisting me
When I'm lying here afraid and full of fear
My heart is telling me our love is insincere
You smile that wicked smile like you know everything
And I hear oh yes I hear I can hear the angels sing
In maya
In maya
In maya
In maya
you're in maya
Blessed is the heart of man
so many ways to understand
you know everything I fear
oh boy you breath a lot of pain
and you make the oceans sway
it's so good to have you near
In maya
In maya
In maya
In maya
you're in maya
when I'm scared I protect myself
I put the blame on to some forfaith
wicked words just to make you cry
if i am true I apologise
boy I like the way you stand
there's no blood upon your hand
you turn the world around for me
chased the fools out of my life
when I'm wrong you'd set me right
you are really waisting me
In maya
In maya
In maya
In maya
you're in maya
don't you know you are
in maya

Vanity Case Lyrics – Boy George

Do you like my hair
Do you like my shoes
These shallow promises shot through these eyes of blue
Do you like my mind
Do you even care
If there's anyone up there
Beauty beauty look at you
I wish to God I had it too
Your so pretty do you swing
Guess you can't have everything
Oh my soul
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful
Oh my soul
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful
Do you like my hips
Do you like my teeth
Hey would you notice me if I walked down the street
A vanity case with a switch on smile
Is there anyone up there
Beauty beauty look at you
I wish to God I had it too
Your so pretty do you swing
Guess you can't have everything!

Broken Spirit Lyrics – Boy George

I stand accused of loving you despite the crime
I must forgive to protect my broken heart
I see the vultures like dark angels as they swoop
But only God will ever really know the truth
If the Lord can forgive why can't you
Though I know it ain't such an easy thing to do
Will you keep me in your prayers
Cause I know the good Lord cares
If the Lord can forgive why can't you
You call it evil
I disagree
So hard to face the darker parts of you and me
You point the finger
And you cast the stone
But you have secrets and confessions of your own
If the Lord can forgive why can't you
Though I know it ain't such an easy thing to do
Will you keep me in your prayers
Cause I know the good Lord cares
If the Lord can forgive why can't you
Broken spirit
I know your name
So lift your head high
I can feel your shame
Your mind is twisted
This crazy fear
But your in my heart and
I'm gonna keep you there
Gonna keep you there

Suffragette City Lyrics – Boy George

Hey man
Oh leave me alone you know
Hey man
Oh Henry get of the phone I gotta
Hey man
I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed boy just put my spine out of place
Hey man
Oh my school days insane
Hey man

Hey man, he's totally wham bam
he said he had to squeeze it, but then he - and then he -
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
Back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it

He's alright
Hey man

Hey man, I can't take it this time no way
Hey man, ah droogie don't crash here
There's only room for one and here
He comes
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
Back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it
you know my Suffragette City
It's alright

Who Killed Rock 'N' Roll Lyrics – Boy George

The DJ spins the records on WRKO
But you must forgive him
For the things he does not know
The world it has changed so much
Corporation damn my soul
Tell me who killed rock'n roll
Tell me who killed rock'n roll
Everyday on MTV you can see the same thing twice
Corporation brainwash put my mind into a vice
Jokers on the airwaves
Pretenders on the throne
Tell me who killed rock'n roll
Tell me who killed rock'n roll
Ziggy play guitar for me
Give me my T-Rex-tacy
These plastic gods and wannabe's
Will never blow my mind
The DJ spins the records on WRKO
And you must forgive him for
The things he does not know
Tell me who killed rock'n roll
Tell me who killed rock'n roll

"Cheapness And Beauty" (1995)

Funtime Lyrics – Boy George

Baby, baby, we like your lips
Baby, baby, we like your pants
All aboard for funtime
Baby, baby, we want in
We want some we want some
All aboard for funtime
Last night I was down in the lab
Talking to dracula and his crew
All aboard for funtime
Oh I feel lucky tonight
Want to get some and run around
All aboard for funtime

Satan's Butterfly Ball Lyrics – Boy George

Look at you
you're insecure
Running down the street
Screaming for attention
Joker's 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
Look at you
you've got no shame
Enemas, blood, cocaine
Caviar and piss
Disco monster terrorist
Hanging in the tate
With Turner & 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 boys with lost eyes
And big red lips
Give me sadness and badness
Don't ever bring me around
Elevator going up
Reality is a come down

Sad Lyrics – Boy George

Sorry about your life
Sorry about your face
I didn't break your heart
Or tamper with your breaks
You were headed for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you've had a difficult life
Or maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
my name in neon lights
You got what you deserve
your sad and miserable life
Sad sad sad
you're 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
Sorry about your lies
So who are you calling a thief
I didn't cry your tears
And I did not lose your sleep
You were heading for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you've had a difficult life
Or maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
my name in neon lights
You got what you deserve
your sad and miserable life
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest hypocrite of all
I say you
you say me
Either way we disagree
I won't forget your treachery
So easily
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

God Don't Hold A Grudge Lyrics – Boy George

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
State your number and your cause
Your black skin or your menopause
Your cancer your identity
You're not so different to me

Genocide Peroxide Lyrics – Boy George

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 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 you 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
And 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

If I Could Fly Lyrics – Boy George

Stone by the river
got no wind in my sail
No revolutions in my soul
Hey, revelation's just
a moment away
Soon I'm gonna be old
soon you're gonna be old
Remember love is not
something you can keep
It just takes the wind
to blow it away
You look so ugly
as you lie there asleep
Boy you're pretty today
so pretty today
When I was born they poisoned my mind
They told me to fight but I'm not that kind
They said I was meek but I did not mind
It's a case of the weak chasing the blind
I see the stars have spelt
your name in the sky
I wrote it too down
here in the sand
When I first met you
you stirred nothing at all
See the cards in your hand
see the cards in your hand
And
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
I'd take to the sky
I feel so special when
I'm making you cry
I regret the things
I throw in your face
This drug will kill you darling
this is no lie
This dragon we chase
this dragon we chase
And
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
Oh if I could fly
I'd take to the sky

Same Thing In Reverse Lyrics – Boy George

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
is it 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
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
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 feel no shame
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
Do I love him
yes I love him
So don't question my affection
This is not some damn afliction
It's just in contradiction
Black boys in carsm and
White boys with poisonous hearts
Even on the one eyed guru
Why the hell are you looking at me now I say
I never wanted to a part of the gang
I never saw this as part of my plan
I walk down the street with pride
Happy that you're by my side

Cheapness And Beauty Lyrics – Boy George

This is a real addiction
confusion and cheap tattoos
A princess
a car thief
and a lost shoe
Loneliness
laughter and 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
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 need you 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
Thoug you slap me in the face
It doesn't really matter
cos we always fall in love again

Evil Is So Civilised Lyrics – Boy George

Far out across the rooftops
Where the televisions sleep
Behind the perfect picture
Lie fanatical 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 civilized
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 Texas moon
Queer killers, redneck saints
Oh God I pray for you
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I weep
Sometimes I cry
'Cause evil is so civilized
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

Blindman Lyrics – Boy George

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

Your Love Is What I Am Lyrics – Boy George

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 hand
You can't teach me nothing
'Cause your love is what I am
Your love is what I am
Can I eat it
Can I swim in it
Did I dream it
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

Unfinished Business Lyrics – Boy George

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
'Cause 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
Hey 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
You know exactly what I mean
You lie, you lie, you lie
You lie, you lie, you lie
Unfinished business, yeah tough guy
You know exactly what I mean

Il Adore Lyrics – Boy George

Mother clutches the head
of her dying son
Anger and tears
So many things to feel
Sensitive boy
Good with his hands
No one mentions the unmentionable
But everyone understands
Here in this cold white room
Tied up to these machines
It's hard to imagine him
as he used to be
Laughing, screaming
tumbling queen
Like the most amazing light show
you've ever seen
Whirling, swirling
never blue
How could you go and die
what a lonely thing to do
Silence equals death
this is what they say
But the anger and the tears
Cannot take the pain away
How far must it go
How near must it be
Before it touches you
Before it touches me
Here in this cold white room
Tied up to these machines
It's hard to imagine life
as it used to be
Laughing, screaming
tumbling queen
Like the most amazing light show
you've ever seen
Whirling, swirling
never blue
How could you go and die
what a selfish thing to do
Did you ever ask those strangers
what they're searching for
Did they laugh and tell you they're not really sure
You were hurt by love
But still you came right back for more
Il adore
Il adore
Il adore

"Jesus Loves You: The Martyr Mantras" (1991)

Generations Of Love Lyrics – Boy George

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
Generations of love
Have done you wrong
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 twenty-eight clause
The end of apartheid
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
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
Generations of love
Generations of love
Generations of love
Have done you wrong

One On One Lyrics – Boy George

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 ran
But could you love somebody
One on one
One and one is two
Two and three is five
Keep your love away from me
If you wanna stay alive
Another time you would have come to me
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

Love's Gonna Let You Down Lyrics – Boy George

Sure I know so much
If I know so much what am I doing here
You say that I'm a fool
But you say so many things
I used to be a boy
But now it seems I'm a man
Pick myself up off the floor
For another game of who's gonna hurt me now
Love's gonna let you down
Keep your feet on the ground
Sure I know so much
If I know so much why are you treating me this way
You say that I'm a fool
But then you say so many things
I used to be a boy
But now it seems that I'm alone
Pick myself up off the floor
For another game of who's gonna use me now
Love's gonna let you down
Keep your feet on the ground
You say that I'm a fool
But you say so many things
Love's gonna let you down

After The Love Lyrics – Boy George

Some kids only sweet sixteen
They 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 is gone
how can we carry on
After the love is gone
how can we carry on
Father is a broken man
He drinks just to forget
Searching for the higher ground
But he ain't found it yet
Every day just like the last
Poverty and lust
So hateful of the richer man
Because he ain't like us
After the love is gone
how can we carry on
After the love is gone
what used to be right is wrong
Like walking into a storm
Strangled by religion
Those that still believe
When you don't have nothing
The Lord he will relieve
Television lifestyles
People come on down
Welcome to the future
Your feet won't touch the ground

I Specialise In Lonliness Lyrics – Boy George

When I first met you
you had scars much deeper than my own
I know I was weak
But I feel I have grown
In the back of my mind
I know the difference
between wrong and right
so if you should decide to leave
I won't put up a fight
I specialize in loneliness
In loneliness
I specialize
If you were a diamond
I wouldn't want you now
If you were a pearl
I'd throw you back somehow
I could never love in that superficial way
And I'm much too proud
To ask you if you'll stay
I know these are dangerous times for love
Shouldn't we stick together
I specialize in loneliness
In loneliness I specialize

No Clause 28 Lyrics – Boy George

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
Brother you're much to late
I read about my future
And it don't look like fun
Now would you be so careless
to give a fool a gun
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 uptight
I don't mean to be precious
But tell me iron lady
are we moving to the right?

Love Hurts Lyrics – Boy George

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
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
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
I guess it's useless to say
why won't this pain go away

Siempre Te Amare Lyrics – Boy George

I give her lovin' everyday
And in my heart I always say
There's not enough love in this world
For you and me girl
I climb the mountains to your heart
I swim the seas that would keep us apart
I wait at night for you to come
You are the moon
You are the sun
siempre te amare
siempre te amare
amare 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 away 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

Too Much Love Lyrics – Boy George

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 I see
Let me tell you now
Too much love
is a bad thing
Too much love
is a bad thing
When I see you in 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 can ever say
ever pleases you
I'm weak and you're strong
You're wrong and right
Too much love

Bow Down Mister Lyrics – Boy George

From Bombay to Bangalore
Al the Hindus know the score
If you wanna live some more
Hare, hare, hare
If you do not take the vow
You can eat the sacred cow
You'll get karma anyhow
Hare, hare, hare
Bow down mister
Hare rama, Hare krishna
Bow down mister
We say radha syam
Do the right thing with your hands
Lay down on the pleasing sands
Whatever else your faith demands
Hare, hare, hare
From Bombay to Rajastan
Nitai guara, radha syam
Hare krishna hare ram
Hare, hare, hare
In the desert Jahshamire
They put kun kun in their hair
At the westemers they stare
Hare, hare, hare
Paint a tilak on your brow
Open like a lotus flower
It's time to check your karma now
Hare, hare, hare

"Boyfriend" (1989)

Don't Take My Mind On A Trip Lyrics – Boy George

I never thought you'd feel
this way
The way you feel about me
I just wanna to hold you tight
Real tight, close to me
And the things you used to say
And the things you used to do
I let it go 'cause I love you so
And though things never go
my way
Why do you always have
to play
With my feelings
Cause
Don't take my mind on a trip
Cause to play me for a fool
You don't love me
that ain't cool
no no
Don't take my mind on a trip
Don't take my love for granted
'Cause that's not the way we
planned it
Always going out at night
Playing games on me
Telling me all those lies
'Cause you've been seen with
another guy
Everybody makes mistakes
Don't you know that it's ok
I still love you so
I just can't let you go
And it's not that I'm a fool
I'm just so in love with you
I can't stand the
blues.. cause...
It's not the way we planned it
Don't take my mind on a trip
Cause to play me for a fool
You don't love me that ain't cool

You Found Another Guy Lyrics – Boy George

You found another guy tell
Me why
You found another guy
Why didn't you tell me that
You didn't want me
In the beginning things were
Just fine
I was so romantic I thought
You were mine
I was so happy now I'm
Depressed
I'm so tired of this loneliness
You packed you bags then
You went away
I haven't seen you since that
Cold cold day
I gotta have you back no
Matter what it takes
So tell me why girl you found
Another guy
I've been walkin around
Things ain't the same
Since you been gone I'm feeling
This pain
In my hart it's so strong
Please come home
I've been waiting for you all
Night long

Whether They Like It Or Not Lyrics – Boy George

I'm a total experience
This is how I play
I'm not one of those people
With nothing much to say
I'm here to get busy
I'm here to throw down
I'm here to tell you that the
Boy's back in town
I want to tell you something
That you don't know
Don't know about me
They are much too blind to
Ever know the truth
Why can't they see
I don't care what people say
I don't care what people do
I can do what I want to do
Whether they like it or not
Satisfaction guaranteed
That's the way to go
Ain't no use in telling you
What they don't need to know
Some people are chilling
Some people are fly
That is what I'm telling you
Just don't believe the hype

I'm Not Sleeping Anymore Lyrics – Boy George

Why do you make it hard to
Love you
You know sometimes it's hard
To care
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
I know one day you're
Gonna find
That all lovers, they're blind
You know that they are
But I'm not sleeping anymore
I'm not sleeping anymore
You see I woke up to find
You were still on my mind
You know that you are
Yes you know that you are
You say that you need me
Give me time
You know that you'll always
Always be mine
Cause I woke up to find
You were still on my mind
You know that you are
But I'm not sleeping anymore
I'm not sleeping anymore
You know one day you're
Gonna find
That all lovers, they're blind
You know that they are
You know that you are
I'm not sleeping anymore
I'm not sleeping anymore

Lies Lyrics – Boy George

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

Big Dark Man (Waiting) Lyrics – Boy George

Someone said that love
Was a double handed glove
But we need it all 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 tripy
But he is a friend of mine
Jeremy he throws
But he might overdose
If he finds a girl tonite

Girlfriend Lyrics – Boy George

I came in here tonight
Just like all of you
Looking for some fun
Something nice to do
Yeah, something nice to do
I've got the feeling
You must be screaming
Your love is walking away
I've got this feeling
You must be screaming
But I just wanted to say
Girlfriend, everybody needs
A boyfriend
Cos when you've got
A boyfriend
You've got something
Else to do
I'm throwing down tonight
Just like all of you
I'm looking for some fun
Nothing less to lose
No, nothing else to lose
I've got the feeling
You must be screaming
Your love is walking away
I've got this feeling
You must be screaming
But I just wanted to say
Girlfriend, everybody needs
A boyfriend
Cos when you've got
A boyfriend
You've got something
Else to do
If you want to keep your man
Be a devil if you have to
Hold on to him girl
There are those that will
Defeat you
There are others that will leave
You dry
Go on girl
Take your love and wrap it
Around
The first sucker that you meet
What's the mattery honey
Did your neck throw up
Just get off my face

Live My Life Lyrics – Boy George

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 it 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 doesn'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

"Tense Nervous Headache" (1988)

Don't Cry Lyrics – Boy George

You say that you're misunderstood
But you like it that way
Then you say you're lonely
Well that's the price you pay
And I don't think I love you
That's the cruelest game we play
But I love you that way
You're a perfect lover
Why don't you stay?
You're a perfect lover
Ain't always that way
You feel a little twisted
You feel a little pain
You feel a little hateful
Don't worry you'll feel that way again
Cry, don't
Cry, don't cry for me
You say that you're not beautiful
But you are in my eyes
You say my love's too heavy
Well that comes as no surprise
It's already over
There's nothing to say
It's already over
But you need love To show you your way

You Are My Heroin Lyrics – Boy George

It's great to by young
Didn't anyone tell you
That life was a lousy substitute
You're not packing with angels now
In your undertakers suit
It's funky down in gutter
That's what all the bitches say
I'll just call it a celebration
If the devil walks my way
You are my heroin
Welcome into the garden Sarah
Come see how my roses die
We were looking for heaven
Couldn't bear to pass you by
There are stories of bad luck, yeah
But they come to bless us all
If it's true that you doubt it
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall
I was talking to sweet thing
She said hang your horses high
There are jokers & tokers
Here's some pills you ought to try
Some say it's a vacation
Some say I will never die
God won't stop at my station
Hear all the mothers cry
You are my heroin
You know that it's true
You keep saying kick it, quit it
Lord but did you every try
To turn your sick soul inside out
So that the world can watch you die
Home is where I live inside
My home is filled with pain
And it might not by such a bad idea
If I never went home again

I Go Where I Go Lyrics – Boy George

Baby I know
This ain't perfection
But you're good to me sometimes
Holding on to love for those moments
Some would say
Is a waste of my time
When I hold you up
People say I'm sad
Sad & lonely
When you put me down
People say I'm sad
But they don't know me
I go where I go
You don't need to let me know
I go where I go
You don't need to tell me so
People tell me
Boy, it's foolish
Always got so much to say
Lovers, dreamers, come between us
But we always find our way
If you break my heart
I will still be here
Like a broken fool
Told you from the start
Pain won't make us part
That's the golden rule
They don't tell us nothing new
We're as bright as day
Live on love
That's what we do
This is what I say

Girl With Combination Skin Lyrics – Boy George

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

Whisper Lyrics – Boy George

You bet that I cannot resist it
When you move inside my life
Touching souls I feel restricted,
And I know that it's not wise
I can tells so much is changing,
But I'm blinded by desire
Won't some god come down from heaven
And set me, set me on fire
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone
No comfort in sight
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Too afraid & much too uptight
When you say that it's forever
I believe it every time
But out of reach
That ain't together
I need someone to be mine
I'm just shouting at the devil
And my kind of love is greed
But don't show too much affection,
Cause I'm willing, yeah
I'm willing to let you bleed
Don't believe that you're invincible
There'll be others just like you
You know that love won't save you
Cause those kind of feelings
You know they never do

Something Strange Called Love Lyrics – Boy George

Oh you slide so good
But just take your time
Drink the blood of fools
I've got to make you mine
Speak in devils tongue
Fake the spoken word
Play with silence now
Well that's what I've heard
I've felt this love
I felt this pain
I felt this heartache too
I came so close
But no one knows
The love I felt for you
Oh you slide so good
With your bones so fair
You've got the universe
Reclining in your hair
Say my love I good
Say we're not too old
I call you jaguar
If I may be so bold
They say that we're much too young
To fall in love
Well, what do they know?
They say that our kind of love
Just ain't enough
Well what do they know?

I Love You Lyrics – Boy George

Love you, blimey some men are funny
Take a look at yourself my darling
Don't you 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
cos 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 my 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 fell 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
See the queen
And his old reminder
That you've never been cool
Turn your back coz 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 died

Kipsy Lyrics – Boy George

Kipsy

Saying check it out
Find the duchess on Duchess street
Come on check it out

Mama Never Knew Lyrics – Boy George

Those early days
Who said, patience never pays?
It's a man's world you're living in
But that don't mean
You have to start giving in
When he says, woman there's a place for you
That don't mean that's what you have to do
There's a gift somebody gave to you
It's called talking
And saying out loud
My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew
Oh she never knew
But I do, yes I do
Oh my mama she never knew
It was late in life
When my mama started to fight
She said man, boy what the hell are you
Gonna break up this room with a word or two
If it seems I ain't good enough for you
Then you know just what you have to do
Pack your bags honey, take you life with you
Go on walk out that door
I won't say it no more

"Sold" (1987)

Sold Lyrics – Boy George

Last night my mother said to me
I'm sick of making history
There's got to be another way
But we've got all these bills to pay
And they ain't just gonna go away
Like a factory
about to be shut down
Sold - did you hear it - I'm Sold
Sold - did you hear it - I'm Sold
You're gonna like this one - I do
See if Mr Botha was a man
He'd tip the hat
he'd pass the can
But he dont talk for you and me
I saw him on the BBC
His eyes looked like a factory
With the lights out
About to be shut down
Sold - did you hear it - I'm Sold
Sold - did you hear it - I'm Sold
Last night my mother said to me
I'm sick of making history
There's got to be another way
for you to be
Last night my mother said to me
When you grow up
what will you be
If not the white minority
At least protect me
I'm not a factory about to be shut down

I Asked For Love Lyrics – Boy George

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
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
All the people
Are ready to hold your hand
All the people
Are ready to understand
The things you do

Keep Me In Mind Lyrics – Boy George

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
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
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

Everything I Own Lyrics – Boy George

You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm
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
I don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free
Set me free
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

Freedom Lyrics – Boy George

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
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

Just Ain't Enough Lyrics – Boy George

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
Why, oh why, oh why
Because it ain't enough
Just to call it love
I said 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
Yes I am
I've got to find a reason why
Oh why

Where Are You Now (When I Need You) Lyrics – Boy George

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
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
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

Little Ghost Lyrics – Boy George

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 around 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 shoulder
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

Next Time Lyrics – Boy George

Next time I sing a ballad
And they say that I'm too pop
What the hell
If it gets me to the top
Next time I'll be handsome
Or pretty at least
I will have big muscles
I'll lay on the beach
Next time I'll paint pictures
Like a real Van Gogh
Wear little black hats
Hang my cigarettes so low
Sit in French cafes
Drinking French Pernod
Next time gigolo
Next time we go
Next time, next time, next time
Ooh next time, next time
Next time I'll be full blooded
'Stead of half-cherokee-woo
I'll put on my warpaint
And they'll listen to me
Next time I'll tell my mama
With a baby on my knee - (Say gay)
I'll sweep and clean and dress my dream
Kick that broke down washing machine
Next time, next time, next time
Ooh next time, next time
Next time I'll be kinder
And I'll be tougher too
I won't worry half as much
And neither will you
But for now I've got to go
On and strut my stuff
I'll sing my song and swing along
Tomorrow I'll be better off next time
Next time, next time, next time
Ooh next time, next time
No no next time
Wop, bob a loo bop bam
Next time
Anyone here seen Ray Charles
James Brown

We've Got The Right Lyrics – Boy George

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
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

To Be Reborn Lyrics – Boy George

Get off your knees
Don't apologise
Cause I ain't got no time
For no more lies
You know the answer
I gave it to you
But you carry on
With the things that you do
Yes I have tried
I could live
I could die
I could be reborn - in your arms
I, I could laugh
I could cry
I could sigh if you're there
Keep me warm
Talk to me
Open your eyes
Talk to me
Loose the disguise
We had good love
Most of the time
Give it back
That love is mine
Give it back
Just one more time
I know the answer
What can we do
I know the answer
So do you
I gave you love
I gave it to you
I gave you love - something new
I gave you love

Are You Too Afraid Lyrics – Boy George

Watching you walk away right out of my life
Hearing the things that you say love overdrive
So what are these special feelings you have for me
Am I an all time loser why can't you see
Only your love can make me feel the way I do
Only your love can make me keep on loving you
gonna keep on loving you
baby, are you too afraid you found it
baby, are you too afraid you found it
baby, are you too afraid you found it
baby, are you too afraid you found my love
If you should say my affection is a waiste of your time
If you shold walk away well I'd say that's fine
Only your love can make me feel the way I do
Only your love can make me keep on loving you
gonna keep on loving you
Don't put it off
Why don't you sense your pillow
Ain't got no time to waiste
In your case baby

Only your love can make me feel the way I do
Only your love can make me keep on loving you

Stay, won't you put your arms around me
Stay, cos you'll be so glad you found it
Stay, won't you wrap your arms around me
Stay, cos you'll be so glad you found me
Stay with me tonight
Why don't you?

Use Me Lyrics – Boy George

Waking up beside you
Felt just like a major crime
Wherever else to hide
those dirty little thoughts of mine
No angel tryin'a love you no way
I wouldn't put that by your side
But I ain't, I ain't above you no
I let my morals take a slide
When you know it's over
Why then waiste my time
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 cozs tonight you're mine
No angel tryin' to love you no way
I wouldn't put that by your side
But I ain't, I ain't above you no
I let my morals take a slide
When you know it's over
Why then waiste my time
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 cozs tonight you're mine

State Of Love Lyrics – Boy George

Everybody's always talk talk
Talkin' about the state of love
State of love
Everybody's always talk talk
Talkin' about the state of love
State of love
Everybody's always talkin' about the state of love
Yes they do
Everybody always wants to be your friend
Oh yeah
When it comes down to give and go
Ain't nobody there
Nobody there
'Cause everybody has to say that you're ok
Yes they do
Because the state of love
Has an answer to
What you wanna say
The state of love
Has an answer to
Everybody's always talkin' about being special
Everybody always wants to hunt you down
When it comes down to give and go
Ain't nobody there
Nobody there
'Cause everybody has to say that they're ok
Yes they do

Love Is Leaving Lyrics – Boy George

So Much Regret for Such a Young Heart
But in the end who can you blame
I'm not a fool, I'm here on your side
I won't hear
your lies again
Hold Me tonight
'Cause I'm blind with uncertainty
I won't hide
this fear inside
'Cause I know
Love is Leaving Me
Yes I know.
Gone around in circles for the last time
I build you up
you pull me down
to see you strong
That's my desire
You wear the crown
You wear the crown
Hold Me tonight
'Cause I'm blind with uncertainty
I won't hide
this fear inside
'Cause I know
Love is Leaving Me

More The Likely Lyrics – Boy George

What's the use in trying
For my senses say no place is this for you
Whats the use in holding out my arms
I couldn't find reasosns
If I tried to
What's the use in floating?
If all it does is tell you someone's under you
What's the use in being if I learn to
Be neglectful to the all things that mean the most of you
But I can hear me say
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for
Find out oh yeah
And I finely understand
And I say
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for
More than likely
More than likely
What's the use in praying?
When all the things that mean so much
To none of you
What's the use in pouring out my heart
Into the situations I could cry through
Oh what's the use in closing
All the doors that let the loving into you
What's the use of loving if I learn
Not feel anything at all
Even if it means the most of you
I can hear me say
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for
Find out I am
Then I'll finely understand
More than likely
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for
Even if you find
That I'm transcending most of my mind
To the often closing doors
What's to come and what's in store
Even if because
I find them sending most of my love
To the often closed mess
You must require
What you're living for
What's the use in clinging (let go)
All the hosts that leave you somewhere next to lies
What's the use in buying all my time
Try to figure out the fame
Likes to communicate the size
I can hear me say
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for
Find out I am
And I can finely understand
More than likely
More than likely
I'm the one you're living for

Try Not To Be Afraid Lyrics – Boy George

Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Try not to be afraid
So many things can happen
But nothing's ever quite as bad
As it might appear
I'll give you all I've got
You know I can't protect you
And try and stop you shading
Even one more single tear
Shelter from the storm
Refuged from the world outside
Safty from the danger
Escape from all the disapointments
the time has passed
Healing all the wounds
A wanishing of nightmares
And enter when this tortured night
Untroubled sleep at last
This is the waul I make
I see it all come true now
And all you have to do for me
Try not to be afraid
I swear I'll be with you
As long as that I may
You will always be with me
Try not to be afraid
Think of everything you've got
Try not to be afraid
Try not to be afraid
Try not to be afraid

When Will You Learn Lyrics – Boy George

When Will You Learn
From your tears and your sorrow
When will you see
Destiny is in your hands
When Will You Learn
You say you're gonna change
But day by day
Our lies remain the same
Glowing hot and crude hate
And you need someone to blame
And You'd do the same
Giving hate a name
Yes, You do the same
When Will You Learn
From your tears and your sorrow
When will you see
Destiny is in your hands
All of your tricks and lies
Boy, will count for nothing
When Will You Learn
I know you'll never change
But day by day
Our lies remain the same
Glowing hot and crude hate
And you need someone to blame
And You'd do the same
Giving hate a name
Yes, You do the same

Why Go? lyrics - boy george

Don't go
I didn't know you'd be here
And I wasn't into come
I'd be sitting watching TV
If there was anything decent on
If I'd missed the taxi
Or found nothing good to wear
But for some uncertain reason
Some strange uncertain reason
This is how it all
It all begun
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
If I made some coffee
Would you sit and talk some more
I know words are usually pointless
When you've used them all before
The way your smile fills the room
Stay a while
Kick of you shoes
Don't go
Please stay
It always happened this way
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
The way your smile fills the room
Stay a while
What's there to loose?
The way you laugh
When I say
Don't go
Please stay
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
Why go
Why go
When you could stay a while
When you could stay with me - tonight
Tonight
