Another night, a striptease, a heart-to-heart, 'cause we do just what we please
Behind the scenes, our pillow talk that we'd never tell anyone else
What have you done to me tonight, my love?
What have you done?
Know what I mean? Our tete-a-tetes that border on obscene
Our green eyes in the half light that make them jealous but oh
What have you done to me tonight my love?
What have you done?
We found it too hard to resist
We found it too hard to resist, resist, resist
We talk for hours and hours and hours and hours and leave it all unsaid
But this time is ours, this time is ours, this time is ours
We talk for hours and hours, this love of ours keeps it all unsaid
But this time is ours to put it to bed
We found it too hard to resist
We found it too hard to resist, resist, resist
I don't know where I belong, it couldn't matter any less, when all is said and done
Our crazy love, our untold told love is never gonna be eclipsed oh
What have you done to me tonight my love?
What have you done?
We found it too hard to resist
We found it too hard to resist, resist, resist
We talk for hours and hours and hours and hours and leave it all unsaid
But this time is ours, this time is ours, this time is ours
We talk for hours and hours, this love of ours keeps it all unsaid
But this time is ours to put it to bed
We talk for hours and hours, this bond of ours keeps it all unsaid
But this time is ours to climb in to bed
We talk, we talk, we talk, we talk
We found it too hard to resist, resist, resist.

They've got tricks and schemes and ways and means
The pleasure's always theirs, it's just the thrill of the chase
He's got the cashflow basking in the afterglow wide open
He's counting up the price they pay for all the lays
And though their lives are chaotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
Cash and Thrills are hypnotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
And he said 'My girl with you I know I'm riding my luck'
But she knows what makes him tick - bang, bang, bang
He knows he's lucky to have her with her legs up to the sky
And she's happy in his arms
As he's counting all the tips, she's fixing up her red lipstick on the back seat
He said 'I'll take you places money cannot buy'
And though their lives are chaotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
Cash and Thrills are hypnotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
And he said 'My girl with you I know I'm riding my luck'
But she knows what makes him tick - bang, bang, bang
He knows Cash is king, he keeps her close with diamond rings
Oh no, she's done it again, she's gone and blown everything
He said 'If they come for us, I promise I'll save your skin'
But she said 'My skin's in the game and your name's on everything'
Oh no, she's done it again, she's gone and blown everything
He said 'Cash is king - please don't let them in'
And though their lives are chaotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
Cash and Thrills are hypnotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
And he said 'My girl with you I know I'm riding my luck'
But she knows what makes him tick - bang, bang, bang
And though their lives are chaotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
Cash and Thrills are hypnotic, you know you get a bang for your buck
And he said 'My girl with you I know I'm right out of luck'
But she knows what makes him tick - bang, bang, bang
Bang bang bang
Bang bang bang
Bang bang bang

In five years' time when I've lost my mind because it got too full of you
All the trouble I caused because I was bored trying to get with you again
But you're playing around
Will you ever come home?
Trying to get you home
As they grab at your frame and pretend to be sane the knives are out tonight
As the cheap seats smile, the hardest mile is getting you back on your feet again
When you're playing around
Will you ever come home?
Trying to get you home
I'm going hard to get you locked down 'cause I know they'll lock me up
Oh oh oh
I'm going hard to get you locked down 'cause I know they'll lock me up
Oh oh oh
Stop playing around
Will you ever come home?
Trying to get you home
I'm going hard to get you locked down 'cause I know they'll lock me up
Oh oh oh
I'm going hard to get you locked down 'cause I know they'll lock me up
Oh oh oh
I'm going hard to get your locked down but before they lock me up
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

(Woohoo, woohoo, Woohoo, woohoo)
I really don't know why I held you close, why I told you all that
Where is Antonio? Woohoo woohoo
I really don't know why he started to growl, what is happening now
Where is Antonio? Woohoo woohoo
The plot is thickening all the time, it's hiding our perfect crime
It's all written up in code
We never use each other's names, don't want it any other way
I sign "Yours" but I mean "Love"
It's just a four letter word - Told, Hard, Lies
I run from everyone but you're not just anyone I'm done at last (at last), at last (at last), at last (at last), at last
I run from everyone but you're not just anyone I'm done at last (at last), at last (at last), at last (at last), I sign "Yours" but I mean "Love" (Love, Love)
It's just a four letter word - Dark, Bang, Lost
Where is Antonio? Woohoo woohoo
The questions only you could ask with your arms wrapped around my heart
As we remember those we've lost
Your blue eyes tell me "That's La Vie" in the shadow of LA Mangerie
I sign "Yours" but I mean "Love"
It's just a four letter word - Take, Ours, Home
I run from everyone but you're not just anyone I'm done at last (at last), at last (at last), at last (at last), at last
I run from everyone but you're not just anyone I'm done at last (at last), at last (at last), at last (at last)
I run from everyone, woohoo
I run from everyone, woohoo
I run from everyone but you're not like anyone I'm done at last (at last), at last (at last), at last (at last), at last

I don't know how to explain who's gonna shoulder the blame for it all
They say to have no regret and yet, and yet we always do
I threw everything at it and everything came out at night
And I told you I loved you - try as I might
You never mean what you say and you kissed and told
And I'm walking away from you, and to have and to hold
I won't be your prey 'cause you kissed and told
And I wanted to stay awake but I'm overawed
Oh what a web that you weave, I find it hard to believe that you cared
And though you're never alone, you're on your own with your heavy heart
I wish my affection had an effect on you
But a call and response won't get me through
You never mean what you say and you kissed and told
And I'm walking away from you and to have and to hold
I won't be your prey 'cause you kissed and told
And I wanted to stay awake but I'm overawed
And so I smile and walk away
Is this what's left on Christmas Day?
Under the sky of leaden grey
Don't tell me life won't be the same
It's all a guilty crying shame
And I don't expect to live in vain
How can there be no other way?
I just can't look the other way
I can't even begin to say
And so I smile and walk away
I smile and walk away
I smile and walk away

He kept me up all night when I was uptight
He knocked me dead of my feet with his drunken narration (I'm lost)
His magnetic charm, his persuasion
I knew my time was up with his serenade
And I was starstruck by his sense of occasion (I'm lost) and his gallantry
What was I to think of this magnificent man? I couldn't blame the drink for my intoxication (I'm lost)
He said he'd stay with me when we're down and out
Asked me casually if I give into temptation (I'm lost) so easily
Touche, I was lost but I was enthralled by Antonio
I was lost but I was adored by Antonio
I was lost and now it's til death do us part
I said I'd take him up on his proposal
Try to understand all of our preoccupations (I'm lost) that come at night
Is it too far fetched to meet a perfect man?
Well always bet on the outside chances (I'm lost)
So I gave in and he carried me out
Never doubt when love is unexplained (I'm lost) and phenomenal
Touche, I was lost but I was enthralled by Antonio
I was lost but I was adored by Antonio
I was lost and now it's til death do us part
What was I to think of this magnificent man that takes my breath away?
I don't want to blink and miss this outré man that takes my heart away
Touche, I was lost but I was enthralled by Antonio
I was lost but I was adored by Antonio
I was lost and now it's til death do us part
I'd like to present this remarkable man - Antonio.

As I wandered into you did you notice it all change?
When I said we'd fool them all
Cause it's unbelievable
It's incredible, it's the one thing we never called
Unforgettable, thanks for it all.
Could you wreck it all, your living?
Could you obliterate all you have?
Could you, could you love me now?
And laugh as your world gets blown apart again, again
So what, it's hard. Could you, could you love me now? Oh
Do you want to fantasize in LA in the fall
Cause they said when we locked eyes, our downfall
It's unthinkable, it's the last thing we'd ever do
It's irrational but it's true
Could you wreck it all, your living?
Could you obliterate all you have?
Could you, could you love me now?
And laugh as your world gets blown apart again, again
So what, it's hard. Could you, could you love me now? Oh
So it's hard to leave and it's hard to believe we're here
And it's hard to leave
So it's hard to leave
And it's hard to believe we're here
And it's hard to leave
And it's hard to believe we're here
So what, it's hard
So what, it's hard
Could you wreck it all, your living?
Could you obliterate all you have?
Could you, could you love me now?
And laugh as your world gets blown apart again, again
So what, it's hard. Could you, could you love me now? Oh
Could you wreck it all, your living?

On mon amour, what have you done with my lover, my friend, my foe
Your face is drawn, you're on the ropes tied up in yourself
Well I don't like her and I don't like them or the rumor I heard today
So I'll see you in bed and I'll tell you how to get away tomorrow but
I never did, I never said 'Hold my hand, I'll take take take take you out of there'
I never said, I never did hold your hand and take take take take you out of there
Take take
Take take take all I love
My darling love, I took too long to get you off the hook and now
The ink is dry, you're all alone with your eyes closed
And I don't like her and the way she dragged you down to earth with ease
So I'll see you in bed and I'll tell you how to get away tomorrow but
I never did, I never said 'Hold my hand, I'll take take take take you out of there'
I never said, I never did hold your hand and take take take take you out of there
Take take
Take take take all I love
We'll serve them right and we'll die laughing in the aisles
Tonight tonight tonight
I never did, I never said 'Hold my hand, I'll take take take take you out of there'
I never said, I never did hold your hand and take take take take you out of there
I never did, I never said 'Hold my hand, I'll take take take take you out of there'
I never said, I never did hold your hand and take take take take you out of there
Take take
Take take take all I love

I was feeling my pulse amplified by the anarchy outside
I was warned but I couldn't even cry
I know they want me to be brave and sing 'Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart'
I know the next time that I see straight it'll be dark
And I need you here, my lifeguard
And though it's impossible now, please take me with you
I've got 31 years in the dark, I don't want to make a new start
Please take me with you, please take me with you
Please take me with you, I've got 31 years in the dark
I was feeling my bones start to ache from the weight of my mistakes
I was warned but I didn't even try
I know they want me to behave and be kind to the gathered crowds
I know the next time that I see straight it'll be dark
And I need you here, my lifeguard
And though it's impossible now, please take me with you
I've got 31 years in the dark, I don't want to make a new start
Please take me with you, please take me with you
Please take me with you, I've got 31 years
Out Cold, Skin Deep, Hard Time On Planet Earth,
Straight Up, Forever Green, and Scandal
Please take me with you
I've got 31 years in the dark, I don't want to make a new start
Please take me with you, please take me with you
Please take me with you, please take me with you
Please take me with you.

(Hey Hey Hey)
I know you're on the long road out of here
And I know I was a pretty pit stop (Hey)
You said 'forget me not'
But I know you drink a lot
And I've heard it all, keep digging (Hey Hey Hey)
You said you'd never seen a woman so alive
But you're on your knees (Hey Hey Hey)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you begged 'don't ever leave me' (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
(Hey Hey, Hey Hey Hey)
I know you're still the bed-bound booze-hound of old
And I know I was a one stop shop (Hey)
Did you think I'd fall for that?
That I'm a scaredy-cat?
So get up, dress up, show up, get out (Hey Hey Hey)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you begged 'don't ever leave me' (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
Your lifelong delusion's heroic (All Lies)
Your skin tight seduction is lonely but (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
Don't call me out, we fell in love, you thought I was (Screaming)
Don't call me out, I'm all you've got, I never was (Screaming Hey Screaming Hey Hey Hey)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you begged 'don't ever leave me' (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
Your lifelong delusion's heroic (All Lies)
Your skin tight seduction is lonely but (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was (All Lies)
I know you'll never believe it but it was all lies
