Scritti Politti - The Word Girl lyrics

To do what I should do to long for you to hear I open up my heart ... and watch her name appear A word for you to use a girl without a cause A name for what you lose when it was never yours The first time baby that I came to you I'd do things that you want me to The second time baby that I came to you Oh you found my love for you The third time baby that I came to you Oh oh oh I knew The last time baby that I came to you Oh how your flesh and blood became the word A name the girl outgrew the girl was never real She stands for your abuse the girl is no ideal It's a word for what you do in a world of broken rules She found a place for you along her chain of fools The first time baby that I came to you I'd do things that you want me to The second time baby that I came to you Oh you found my love for you The third time baby that I came to you Oh oh oh I knew The last time baby that I came to you Oh how your flesh and blood became the word (ad lib to end)
