1993-1994 Including Songs From Watusi

So Long, Baby

No, this is me!
Well, are you still there?
Well, tell me now, who did you think it would be?
Oh, why do I care?

I'm just kidding myself
Stop trying to be kind
Well, you really thought it was somebody else
Oh, never mind

I got it all wrong, maybe, but I'm saying "so long", baby!

Aside from all that I still think you're dreamy
You say you'll try harder (we both know you won't)
But where are you at girl, why won't you see me?
Maybe you love me and maybe you don't

I don't want to fight but we've got things to discuss
Like why you don't come home every night
And what about us?

You're not going to win (I know you too well)
You've already been to bed with him
Oh, I can just tell

I got it all wrong, maybe, but I'm saying "so long", baby!

Aside from all that I still think you're dreamy
You say you'll try harder (we both know you won't)
But where are you at girl, why won't you see me?
Maybe you love me and maybe you don't

I really need to ask you whether you and I can sleep together
I guess I never thought it mattered
Now, suddenly, I'm feeling flattered

Here's every last bit of me
No in-between, just take whatever you see
I need you to love me and no one could mean as much as you do to me

I want to breathe the air that you breathe
I want to follow you when you leave
I want to take you home and hide you
I want to always be inside you

Every last bit of me
No in-between, just take whatever you see
I need you to love me and no one could mean as much as you do to me

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I really don't believe that this is happening
I've tried and tried and tried to think it through
Oh, I heard what you said, I'm just not answering
I guess I'm scared of what I'll have to do

Because you know that I'll come running to you, when you call
You know I'll come whatever you've got planned
You know you mix me up; I can't think straight at all
My head tells me I shouldn't be here and my heart says "yeah!"

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

You've hypnotised me with those crazy eyes of yours
You've cracked me open like a coconut
You've got me crawling round and round you on all fours
My head tells me I shouldn't be here but my heart says "yeah!"

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I want you now; let's just take it all the way
I don't care how; I'll do anything you say
I want you now; let's just take it all the way
I don't care how; I'll do anything you say

And how on earth did I get myself into this?
And how much stranger is it going to get?
And how do you hold me prisoner with just a kiss?
My head tells me I shouldn't be here yet my heart says "yeah!"

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yes yes yes yes yes

Let Him Have it

Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him

I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't really care enough about it
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't really care enough about it
The light is getting dim

Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him

You don’t want me
You don’t need me
You don’t really care enough about me
You don’t want me
You don’t need me
You don’t really care enough about me
The light is getting dim

Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him

I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't really care enough about it
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't really care enough about it
The light is getting dim
Give it to him
The light is getting dim

Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him
Give it to him

Gazebo

I knew it was you from the minute you strolled into the gazebo like you'd never been gone
And if this is a game, well, you'll win it
Oh, there were others but you're still the first one
Your chair's right there (I guess you've seen it)
It's funny how the years have gone and slipped away
Oh, but you haven't changed a bit
No, I mean it!
You still say things that no one else would say

Oh, sure, you amused me but you also confused me
Then you turned round and used me
I thought I'd forget you
I didn't want to upset you so you went and I let you

You wouldn't believe all the time that I've wasted staring at the photographs you sent to me
But I remember, oh, exactly how you tasted and just how much you really meant to me
Oh no, I'm seeing someone here (you don't know her)
She's one in a million but she isn't you
And it could never be, well, quite as close as we were
I hate to say it, but I think it's true

Oh, sure, you amused me but you also confused me
Then you turned round and used me
I thought I'd forget you
I didn't want to upset you so you went and I let you

Shake It

We've been through this already and I don't care what you've seen
I've changed so much since then
You want to take it steady, sure, but how long does that mean?
Don't go home again

Why don't you keep your eyes closed and just take a giant bite?
What makes you so scared?
Well, I guessed he just supposed that you'd be sleeping here tonight
I don't think he really cared

Now won't you please give in and say you'll stay?
You can't win if you won't play

Shake it; you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight

There's so much I need to tell you but I just can't find the words
I've never felt like this before
And, if I say "I love you", you pretend that you've not heard
What are you waiting for?

Oh, won't you please give in and say you'll stay?
You can't win if you won't play

Shake it; you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight

Shake it; you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
I’ll die

Spangle

I'm glad you found the time to ring
Oh, I just spent all day waiting
I need to know what's happening
Well, at least we both agree

I really don't know where to start
Well, did you say you met some neighbour?
I guess I'm heading for a broken heart
Why are you doing this to me?

It's all clear (I can hear)
And I'm not going to share you with no one
Well surprise, I've got eyes
Now goodbye

How long have you had this planned?
Well I guess it shows how much you care
No, I understand
I just played the fool

Oh, sure I'm going to let you go
Well, I was wrong to ever trust you
But I don't think that I'll ever know how you could be so cruel

It's all clear (I can hear)
And I'm not going to share you with no one
Well surprise, I've got eyes
Now goodbye

It’s a Gas

The sun's already rising
I guess that's not surprising because I find you mesmerizing
We're moving fast
But kissing and caressing and watching you undressing shouldn't be depressing
I know at last

That it's a gas but my best friend's waiting so I'm going to pass and it's so frustrating

I know how you're feeling
Oh, sure, you're most appealing but I'm not double dealing
We're moving fast
You’ve given me a fever but I will not deceive her
I'm never going to leave her
I know at last

That it's a gas but my best friend's waiting so I'm going to pass but it's so frustrating

The answer’s no (I've got to go)
Well I told you so
You won't use me
I couldn't do what you want me to because I don't love you
You just amuse me

I hope you're not offended because I never pretended
I guess this night just ended
I know at last

It's a gas
I'm not hesitating; I'm just going to pass
It's so frustrating because it's such a gas but my best friend's waiting for me now

Swimming Pools, Movie Stars

I'll stand over here and when you walk past me again I'll try and say "hello"
It doesn't look like you are here with anyone (maybe they've already gone?)
Oh I don't know

I've thought of nothing else today
The things I'd love to say if I got the chance
And, oh, how grateful I would be if you could just give me a second glance

And that's because tonight I've seen you in a different light
Bunny girls and motorcars
Swimming pools and movie stars just don't amuse me anymore
And I'm not even sure I liked them then
I feel like I'm awakening and I'll do anything
Please just say when

Oh, it's all because tonight I've seen you in a different light
Bunny girls and motorcars
Swimming pools and movie stars

They can keep it
They can keep it all
If only you would call

Tonight I've seen you in a different light
Bunny girls and motorcars
Swimming pools and movie stars

They can keep it
They can keep it all
If only you would call

Yes, they can keep it
They can keep it all
If only you would call

Big Rat

And there's something I've got to tell you and I'm not sure how to put it in words
I had a feeling you might have guessed that something's not right
Maybe you already heard

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

Oh, please don't start crying (I've not been lying)
I just didn't tell you it all
We just talked but then she stopped smiling when she asked me to give her a call

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

I'm a big rat but I get scared when you start talking like that
Why won't you see that she meant absolutely nothing to me?

I can't remember just what happened next but I'm not sure I even had any fun
Oh, she's amusing but I was so scared of losing you, well, after all that I've done

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

I'm a big rat but I get scared when you start talking like that
Why don't you see that she meant absolutely nothing to me?

I'm a big rat but I get scared when you start talking like that
Oh, why can't you see that she meant absolutely nothing to me?

Catwoman

No, I'll just lie here in your warm fur
Oh, look, I'm trembling still
I didn't mean to hurt her, oh, but I guess I will

Because the pussycat in you brings out the man in me

Oh, no, I told her last night
She said: "I don't care!" (I'm joking, of course)
But, you know, something's not right
Well, for a start, I don't feel any remorse

But how can I resist when she doesn't even know you exist?

You know, I never made love like that before
There's nothing else to think of
I just want more and more

Because the pussycat in you brings out the man in me
Hey!

Flame On

I keep calling but you're usually out and I think I know what this is all about
I don't have to be there (I know what I'll find)
Oh, I might be stupid, girl, but I'm not blind

How dare you sit there and just shake your head when you haven't listened to a word I've said
All I wanted was just one last kiss and I can't believe that I'm hearing this

Super hero
Human dynamo

Flame on!
And you just melt away
Flame on!
It's true
Flame on!
Now he wants to play
Flame on!
With you

I'd never seen him as an enemy but now he's taking you away from me
Oh, I'd love to tear him limb from limb because I still think that you're too good for him

Super hero
Human dynamo

Flame on!
And you just melt away
Flame on!
It's true
Flame on!
And now he wants to play
Flame on!
With you

Bubbles

I don't like this any more than you but there is something I really have to do
I've stayed much longer than I should
You want me to ring?
Well did I say I would?

OK I did but I'm not

Don't you think at least that we've shared one great night, whatever you believe?
I'll go, while we're still feeling good
I don't want to write; there's no reason why I should

Well, there is, but I'm not

Watch the bubbles floating away
I've got to get out
Got to do it this way and nothing you can do is going to make me stay

And please don't think that, just because I'm here in your bed, I do this all the time
Last night I already knew I should be sorry I said some of the things I said to you

I should but I’m not

Watch the bubbles floating away
I've got to get out
Got to do it this way and nothing you can do is going to make me stay
