"Answered Prayers" lyrics
"Answered Prayers"
It was a difficult time
And I was in the right place
Your boyfriend was suicidal
And you were looking vulnerable
I took you for a spin
I tried you on for size
I knew you'd fall for me
'Cause people always do
I want your money
I want your money, honey
I want your money
I want your money, honey
You had me on the side
That's how I had you too
You weren't the only one
You shouldn't kid yourself
That's how it is with me
And how it's always been
You shouldn't kid yourself
The rest is up to you
I'm feelin' fickle
A little Travis Bickle
I'm feelin' fickle
A little Travis Bickle
Hammer and sickle
It's either slap or tickle
Your wooden nickel
You found a wooden nickel
I don't want you
I don't want you
I don't want you
I don't want you
You come home from your day job
And now your work can start
These nights turn so nasty
If you keep actin' smart
I'm on fire, it's no secret
I'm way too hot to hold
Razor wire, I don't need it
You're under self-control
I want your money
I want your money, honey
I want your money
I want your money, honey
I was your answered prayer
I feel the yearnin' need
Now you depend on me
So you can go to hell
I don't want you
I don't want you
I don't want you
I don't want you (I don't want you)
I don't want you (I don't want you)
I don't want you (I don't want you)
I don't want you (I don't want you)
I don't want you

Boy & Bear - "Work Of Art" I can feel it in the back of my mind
It took an amnesia from the back of my mind
So buried for so long

Just in time we'll go dancing
Through the work of art...

Put together Holdens or a foundry job at worst
I can hear the noises coming from the Karawara deep into the night
The roads were filled with...

Birds Of Tokyo - "The Greatest Mistakes" It was thirteen years ago
When I thought I knew it all
I made the greatest mistakes
It doesn't always go to plan
But I'd played whatever hand

Time and again I'd keep on...
Pretenders - "Hate For Sale" Hate for sale
Hate for sale
He won't get hung or go to jail
He's got a curly tongue and a curly tail
But mostly he has hate for sale
Call it luck or inherited title
A guy like that is arrogant,...
