BURRS & QUEENIE What is it about her I know it's wrong That parts the waters? I know he's rough What is it about her That hoists the sail? I don't know what to do But we've been through enough
BURRS Something in her hair Instructing where to touch Why do I need her so much?
This woman makes me cry This woman makes me burn This woman's eye can cut me to the core
The hatred that I see Has been reserved for me Yet I want more And more And more
BURRS & QUEENIE And what is it about her Oooh... That pulls me closer? That way he's always there What is it about her That tips the scale? His strange and silent stare.
BURRS This girl is all I have So soft so fair, so fine And she's forever mine.
This woman builds me up This woman tears me down This woman speaks and I can break apart
Now comes another man Pretending he can win her heart Well, let him start.
What is it about her So slight, so secret? Something in the way she catches light
BURRS & QUEENIE Who's wrong? Who's right? I've never known. Should I hold my own Now - Or be alone We fall Tonight? We fight.
What is it about her What is it about him? That jumbles feelings inside? So coarse, so queer What is it about her What is it about him... That mixes passion with pride? That holds me here?
BURRS Could I live without her And let her go? How loud must I scream No!

View Lyrics
It's a lazy afternoon And the farmer leaves his reaping In the meadow cows are sleeping And the speckled trouts stop leaping up stream
As we dream A far pink cloud hangs over the hill Unfolding like a rose If you hold my hand and sit real still You can hear the grass as it grows
It's a hazy afternoon And I know a place that's quiet 'Cept for daisies running riot And there's no one passing by it to see Come spend this lazy afternoon with me

View Lyrics
I like him the way that he is He is no’innocent And Christ. He’s guilty where it counts I use him daily in increasin’ amounts And I like it like that Un-huh Un-huh Un-huh Un-huh And I like it like that Mmmhm mmmhm’ I like it like
In the morning light when he rubs his beard Then he touches me; In the afternoon. when he draws my bath Then undresses me; Come round curtain time, when he spends my dough Then he cheats on me; Come the quarter-moon; when he drinks too much Then he cries for me; Breaking a stray in ain’t so hard; Had ta teach him to play in my backyard
Black is a liar And I like it like that Thinks with his wire And I like it like that I’m in for the thrill of the kill’ If I can’t have him Then nobody will.
All I need what I need
Kate I need to feel his touch
All I need I need
Kate I need to feel his sex
All I need to feel your sex I need to hear your name I need your fire I need your breath I need your lust Lust! Lust! Lust!
