Shakespears Sister - Stay (Acoustic version)

 

If this world is wearing thin
And you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
Just wrap me up in chains
But if you try to go alone
Don't think I'll understand

Stay with me, stay with me

In the silence of your room
In the darkness of your dreams
You must only think of me
There can be no in between
When your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more

Stay with me, stay with me

You'd better hope and pray
That you'll make it safe
Back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you'll wake one day
In your own world

'Cause when you sleep at night
They don't hear you cries in your own world
Only time will tell if you can break the spell
Back in your own world

Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me... 

 

Shakespears Sister - I Don't Care

 

Walking through the rooms in my head
I came across your image
You looked at me with that sweet smile and said
Something they won't let me repeat
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of compliment

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Mark the spot you hate with an x
Then shoot your bow and arrow
Do your worst get it all off your chest
I'll hold my breath and swallow
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of discipline

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Out of the alley, I spoke came Victoria
Queen Victoria sitting shocked upon the rocking horse
Of a wave said to the laureate
This minx a course as sharp as any lynx
And blacker deeper than the drinks
As any hottentot without remorse
For the lynx said she and the drinks you can see
Are hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me
Hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care 

 

Shakespears Sister - Are We In Love Yet

 

It's just another day in this crazy place
Well, don't you ever feel like you're losing the race
We're all on the same long road
To get where we want to go

Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that's what it's all about
Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that's what makes the world turn round

Don't need a crystal ball to see what's going on
I can see the signs so come on everybody, let it shine
Cause love makes you love somebody
Love turns you into somebody

Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that's what it's all about
Are we in love yet?
That's what makes the world turn round

Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that's what it's all about
Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that makes the world go

Love's spinning, love's spinning round
Love's spinning, love's spinning round
Cause love makes you love somebody
Love turns you into somebody

Are we in love yet?
Don't you know that's what it's all about
Are we in love yet?
That's what makes the world go round 

 

Shakespears Sister - The Trouble With Andre

 

Some people say he has a deathwish
Trouble is he tends to agree
Let's not ask too many questions
It's nothing to do with you or me

He remembers a time when even going home was sweet
Now he can't feel the ground under his feet

And she said
"The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he hides everything"
But I know the trouble with Andre
Is he's a liar

Inside the dresser by the table
Something he keeps beside the bed
Living with Andre can't be easy
Some things are better left unsaid

He remembers a time before the waters got so deep
When he found it easier to sleep

And she said
"The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he hides everything"
But I know the trouble with Andre
I he's a liar

And you know
The trouble with Andre
Is he thinks he fools everyone
But I know the trouble with Andre
Is his disguise 

 

Shakespears Sister - Stay

 

If this world is wearing thin
And you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
Just wrap me up in chains
But if you try to go alone
Don't think I'll understand

Stay with me, stay with me

In the silence of your room
In the darkness of your dreams
You must only think of me
There can be no in between
When your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more

Stay with me, stay with me

You'd better hope and pray
That you'll make it safe
Back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you'll wake one day
In your own world

Cause when you sleep at night
They don't hear you cries in your own world
Only time will tell if you can break the spell
Back in your own world

Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me...

 

Shakespears Sister - Hello (Turn Your Radio On)

 Woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars
All bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from Mars
And as I stumbled through last nights drunken debris
The paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street

Another war and now the pound is looking weak
And tell me have you read about the latest freak?
We're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete
Why do I feel bitter when I should be feeling sweet

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
La la la life is a strange thing
Just when you think you learned how to use it
It's gone

Woke up this morning and my head was in a daze
A brave new world has dawned upon the human race
Where words are meaning less and everything's surreal
Gonna have to reach my friends to find out how I feel

And if I taste the honey is it really sweet
And do I eat it with my hands or with my feet?
Does anybody really listen when I speak
Or will I have to say it all again next week

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Tell me what went wrong
La la la life is a strange thing
Life is a strange thing

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
La la la life is a strange thing
Just when you think you learned how to use it
It's gone
