George Michael Şarkı Sözleri

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
monkey
With a monkey
monkey
lalala

Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
Do it again
I've had the rest
Now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore

Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
monkey
with a monkey
monkey
lalalalala

Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do it again
Do you want him now like you did back then?
Do it again
I tried my best
But your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore

Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
monkey
with a monkey
monkey
lalalalalalala

Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you

So you tell me that you won't do anymore

If I keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
monkey
with a monkey
monkey
lalalalalalala

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me? (oh)
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

I've been in and out of favour with lady luck
I gotta tell you
I've seen things I never wanted to see

I've got to get back on my feet
I feel like I've been sleeping
sweet, sweet time
has been a real good friend of mine

waiting for that change of season
of the winter's been so long
searching for that rhyme or reason
you've just got to

move on
hold it together, move on
life's so short, move on
only time will set you free

you put your fears behind you better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights I spent crying
and I move on

I've been in and out of favour with love
because I gotta tell you
I've been things I never wanted to be
and then some angel called me up
he told me I was sleeping
said don't waste time
cos even angels say goodbye

waiting for that change of season
oh the winter's been so long
searching for that rhyme or reason
you've just got to

move on

and oh, there goes another season
getting hard to find a decent song to play
but oh, I guess I got my reasons
everybody thinks I'm doing aok
they ought to know by now

chorus

you put your tears behind you
better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights I spent crying
before my angel set me free

I'm gonna be lucky in love someday
(return to top)

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand
And lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Goes to minus silver screen
And not exactly goodbye

I'm never gonna dance again
Gifted feet have got no rhythm
Well it's easy to pretend
I know I'm not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Wasted chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never make careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart in mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is the heart you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
Gifted feet have got no rhythm
Well it's easy to pretend
I know I'm not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Wasted chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that beat could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt eachother with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have been in this dance forever
But no one's gonna dance with me
Please stay

I'm never gonna dance again
Gifted feet have got no rhythm
Well it's easy to pretend
I know I'm not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Wasted chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
What did I do so wrong that you had to leave

I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go

'Cos teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go

And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go

And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try

I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try

Papa Was A Rollin` Stone

It was the third of September
That day I`ll always remember, yes I will
`Cause that was the day that my daddy died

Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothin` but bad things about him
Mama, I`m depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said

Chorus
"Papa was a rollin` stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone" (repeat)

Hey, Mama, is it true what they say
That Papa never worked a day in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin`
Papa had there outside children
And another wife
That ain`t right

Heard some talk about Papa and his storefront
Preachin`
Talkin` about saving souls and all the time
Leaching
And dealing in dirt
Stealin` in the name of the Lord

But Mama she just said

Chorus

Say, I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills
Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin`
Spent most of his time chansin` women and drinkin`
But Mother, I`m depending on you to tell me the
Truth

But my mama she just said
