Patience lyrics

[V1]
You got yourself some action
Said you got yourself a body
You got yourself an ass with
Mind of it's own bring something
to the party You got yourself addicted
You shoot up, it saves you time
You got yourself a paycheck
Faces in the places where the sun don't shine

[CH1]
I'll be your sexual freeek (freeek)
Of the week

You got yourself some action
Said you got yourself a body
You got yourself an ass with a mind of its own
Brings something to the party

You got yourself addicted
You shoot off, it saves you time
You got yourself a pay cheque
Faces in the places where the sun don't shine

I'll be your sexual freak (freak), of the week
I'll be your inspirational brother (sister), yo momma can't you see

(George Michael)
[Instrumental]

(George Michael)
Is that enough?
I think it's over
See, everything has changed
And all this hatred may just make me strong enough
To walk away
They may chase me to the ends of the earth
But I've got you babe
And they may strip me of the things that I've worked for
But I've had my say
So hear me now
I've enough of these chains
I know they're of my making

(George Michael)
Some people said, if I could only care for you
Some people said, he will never love again
Some people said, you can see it in his eyes
He keeps it all inside and yet . . . .
Some people say, in time, we all teach ourselves to live this way
And for a thousand days, I was lost
I thought never to be found,
Underground
And don't you think I'm ready now?

(George Michael)
In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
From the stars to my home, down through the stone,
I could have been so alone,
Without my precious box
Have I a family? I guess not
I've never seen a lot of beauty
In my life.
Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone, they never
leave you alone

(George Michael)
Bless the day you came into my life, I still remember
Horny cowboy with your stars and stripes
Bringing the light into my day
With that Texan smile
Too afraid to love, to hope that you would stay
So broken that I never saw you chase the past away
My American Angel, he doesn't want to fight (doesn't need to fight)
My U.S of Angel, holds me in the dead of night

(George Michael)
'Cause you're beautiful (Like no other)
'Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)
Beautiful .... beautiful
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting
You've got to go to the city

(George Michael)
My mother had a brother
They say that I was born on the day that he died
Someone to cling to, she said
When all the noises and the shame came calling
My mother had a brother
I thought I knew them all, I thought I knew
But she lied
I said, "Show me his face again, tell me again why he died"
She said he couldn't wait for the things that I've seen

(George Michael)
Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, it won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely
And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door

(George Michael)
My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walking and she took his name
Round here
There was dancing in the afternoons those days
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same, love felt the same
Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of... something better
Round here

(George Michael)
Close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since '75
Then one day he just, what do you know
I guess God just called his number
He called me up he called me up and said
"I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about asking the doctor
If he could put me back to sleep"
Then he laughed and said
"Hey all the girls they look the same"

(George Michael)
It's like a conversation, where no-one stops to breathe
Is it my imagination, or did God already leave the table?
Such destruction, and pure white castles in the sand
No time for introduction
With all that money changing hands
And the satellite says, "Take a look at all we have"
But the old man says,
"You want my family, for your liberty...I can't do that."

GTi, Hot Shot,
He parks it there,just to piss me off.
Bullyboy, gonna show ya who's tough,
I'm gonna shoot the dog, I'm gonna shoot the dog
It's party time, everyday
I spent Saturday night on Novocaine
Called the pigs, but nobody came
I'm gonna shoot the dog, I'm gonna shoot the dog (come on ladies)
Nine nine nine gettin' jiggy
People did you see that fire in the City?

I was mixed up when you came to me
Too broke to fix
Said 'daddy get you gone, I'm missing my baby'
Still missing my baby
I was stitched up by the hands of fate
Said how you gonna make it on your own
If luck is a lady?
Maybe luck is a lady
I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken I was not open
To your suggestions
I had so many questions
That you just kissed away

The long and winding road that leads to your door,
Will never disappear,
I've seen that road before It always leads me here,
Leads me to your door.

The wild and windy night the rain washed away,
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day.
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way

Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried
