lyrics
You asked if I could lend an ear
But you took mine last week
You asked if I could lend a hand
But you took mine last week
You asked if I could give a shoulder to lean on
You took it last week
Once said that I could be your light
‘Cos your cigarette needs fire
All you say is “Gimme gimme,
Gimme gimme all of you.”
“Yeah all of you”
Everyone says your cheeks look rosy
And you look great, you look great
Everyone says you’re looking sunkissed
And you look great, you look great
You say that I should see how great you feel
On the inside
You’ve taken all my looks, my youth
And a thank you would be nice
I’m so tired of your trifles
I just want some restful sleep
Not wondering if you’re in too deep
Well are you in too deep?
I’m so tired of your trifles
All you say is “Gimme gimme”
But you took mine last week
You asked if I could lend a hand
But you took mine last week
You asked if I could give a shoulder to lean on
You took it last week
Once said that I could be your light
‘Cos your cigarette needs fire
All you say is “Gimme gimme,
Gimme gimme all of you.”
“Yeah all of you”
Everyone says your cheeks look rosy
And you look great, you look great
Everyone says you’re looking sunkissed
And you look great, you look great
You say that I should see how great you feel
On the inside
You’ve taken all my looks, my youth
And a thank you would be nice
I’m so tired of your trifles
I just want some restful sleep
Not wondering if you’re in too deep
Well are you in too deep?
I’m so tired of your trifles
All you say is “Gimme gimme”
