Joe Jackson - Soul Kiss lyrics

Every time I turn the TV on

It's always just the same old tease

See everything you ever dreamed that you could want

But nothing that you need

And every gorgeous girl in Hollywood could soon be mine

I got the money and from time to time I have the time

Get the image right

Party through the night

But as it's getting light

I'm still waiting for a soul kiss

Do I have to say "please"

But it's always just a near miss

Always just a big tease

Is it always gonna be like this

When you're lookin' for a soul kiss

And all the record stores

Are filled with pretty boys and their material girls

And even students vote for actors

Then they tell you it's a safer world

And all the hippies work for IBM or take control

Of faster ways to sell you food that isn't really whole

I like to wine and dine

You sure are lookin' fine

And we could kill some time

But I'm waitin' for a soul kiss

I've even said "please"

But it's always just a near miss

It's just a big tease

Is it always gonna be like this

When you're lookin' for a soul kiss
