Billy Bragg - Love Gets Dangerous lyrics

Right now what are you thinking

Paddle with the spoon and you came up sinking

Too fast then it gets faster

Downward spin don't think you're gonna last

You're drowning in a pool so shallow

Eating at the soul until the body is hollow

Hazing so you won't see

You're nothing but a whore boy to the monkey

Faith in me

Decay

Shine on

Weakness voluntary sickness

Learn when you burn it's the wrong way to fix this

Digression turns into obsession

Lesson number one hooks you in the profession

So you say you're not addicted

The lies in your eyes of the pain you've inflicted

Feel it crushing through your veins

You're loosing yourself monkey on the brain

Consumer repair buyer beware

Sunk your fortune for it

Punk

Hate this solitary turmoil

Off in the corner like a snake in a coil

Shaking for what you're not taking

Say you're gonna quit but you know that you're faking it

Too cool who are you trying to fool

Gonna need help boy take you back to school

Clean you of what you can't see

Or just die trying to kiss the monkey
