Hard lyrics

The same again
Another disagreement
You dreamed of scenes
Like you read of in magazines
A new romance
Invented in the bedroom
Is this really the way it is
Or a contract in our mutual interest
Is this really the way it is
Or a contract in our mutual interest
Another disappointment
We couldn't perform
In the way the others wanted
These social dreams
Put in practice in the bedroom

Aim for the body rare, you'll see it on TV
The worst thing in 1954 was the Bikini
See the girl on the TV dressed in the Bikini
She doesn't think so but she's dressed for the H-bomb
I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for
I knew I'd get what I asked for
Aim for the country fair you read it in the papers
The worst happens any week a scandal on the front page

If I keep my eyes on it
I will have more than I might need
To have the fingers crossed for
The break that I'm not sure may be
It don't matter
It don't matter
It don't matter
Before they slip away
Just look at where I'm at today
Not bad, huh, what do you say?
If I take the chance that comes
Put life into the days
Before they slip away
Make sure that times no luxury

Your look will always find me hypnotized
Behind every cloud there's a silver lining
There's a pain in my heart
Is it for real or on show
Let's try to just make a point
Let's try to get to the point
You worry too much kid
About how to say it
You worry too much kid
About how to say it
Who's got the time to hang on?
Nobody, anymore
Who's got the time to hang on?
Nobody, anymore

This was my first night in woman town
But I somehow feel (I knew), I'd been here before
It ain't no wonder that you caught on
How long it took
I want to get all my kicks and thrills
I've seen the pictures
Enchant the eyes of all who pass by
She said it's no surprize that you wear shades
Every want rebounds from such a perfect curve
I don't need you, I'm a woman not some naming game

I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine
I would cry for you
I would cry for you
I would wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear
I would pray for you
I would pray for you
I would sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you
See your face every place that I walk in

A piece of my heart cries out loudly
For the funeral of innocence
To tell the truth, this elaborate story
Of goodness not so plausible
Stay at home at night
The mark of Cain is upon you
There's a sign on your forehead
There's no way you can stay out
A piece of my heart eyes the wheel in motion
With suspicion of coincidence
It don't grab me now, to swallow the notion

The information I was given as follows:
Take care not to fall in love
For confirmation I was given as follows:
Take care not to fall like dominoes
It's okay while we touch
It's okay while we touch
It's okay in a clutch
While we sleep what dreams may come
It's okay in a clutch
While we sleep what dreams may come
Now I'm not sure that I'm secure
And I'm not sure that I'm secure
