if this is a ghetto, I'm in it with you
if it's just a prison, I'm locked in it too
I tried to leave you, but after all that we had said
I went to pieces
if it's just a prison, I'm locked in it too
I tried to leave you, but after all that we had said
I went to pieces
when I should have shouted and screamed instead
'so sorry', I said
your powers of persuasion, those quizzical eyes
have tired and tied me, with innocent guile
I would have walked out, and after all the tears we shed
I should have stalked out, gone and painted the town bright red
but instead 'so sorry', I said
how tough it gets, don't talk to me about it!
to pay off your debts, I worked on overtime
and you say you never believed in luck
if you need a reason, consider me mad
an old retainer, loyal and sad
I bought my freedom, but after all that we had shared
I couldn't leave you think of the skins I'd have to shed
instead, 'so sorry', I said
THE MOST LUSCIOUS AND AMAZING

The artwork is great--it's the eyes that do it, huh?
I'll have to give another listen to the tune...worthy of listening to more than once.
What a great tune for her.
I really like the stuff she does with the Pet Shop Boys
with eyes like that on a face like that with a voice like that, it's no wonder she was so many people's icon, eh
probably still is!
With a 'z'.....she's awesome. And really--what a great performance!
