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

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

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

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
