They wanted me here
Just to show you my face
But when it comes to the crunch

I just hide in disgrace
You're calling me mad
But I know you're the same

Cause you got to be seen to be playing the game
Yes we got to be seen to be playing, the game.


It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now

Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise

I thought that you were wise
But you were otherwise.


A specimen like you
I would love to obtain
I asked a tedious guy if he'll tell me your name

I'd love to impress you
With a back somersault
I want to take out your love

But it's locked in a vault
I wanna take up your love
But it's locked in a vault

It ain't gonna hurt now.
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now

Everytime you criticise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise

I thought that you were wise
But you were otherwise.


When I open my mouth
I'm so brutally honest
And I can't expect that kind of love from you

When you open your mouth
Your teeth are beautifully polished
And I can't extract the pain you're going through

No I can't explain
The pain you're going through.


It ain't gonna hurt now
If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now

Everytime you womanise
I'm under your curse now
But I call it compromise

I'm under your curse.

It ain't gonna hurt now

If you open up your eyes
You're making it worse now
Everytime you criticise

I'm under your curse now
But they call it compromise
I thought that you were wise

But you were otherwise.
