Killing Time

  • Albums: Sleight Of Hand

When you're pleasure seeking
I'm left killing time

It's a homicide
A ritual
Don't treat a human like that

You're very smart
You ignite my flame
After all is said and done
Baby you're the only one

I don't get jealous
But when you say you love me
I only half believe
But baby
I could never leave

Right now is all I want
Right here
Here is where you belong
With me
As long as you stay
With me
You'll see
I'm real good company

Sleight of hand
The way you play your tricks

You cheat on me
All the time
But I turn my back
Cos we had
Some
Good times

Here is where you belong
With me
As long as you stay
With me
You'll see
I'm real good company

Key (The)

  • Albums: The Key

I want the key to your heart

You tell me that you need
My loving
But when you gonna
Give me the key
To the basement
Every other lover
You had before
Got a key to the door

You say you're gonna
See me on Sunday
But when you gonna
Give me the key to your heart
All of my friends
Have walked down the aisle
Now we're miles apart

They say that love is often blind
And I'm blind I'm blind
I know I'm blind
They say that love will fool us all
And I'm fooled I'm fooled I know I'm fooled

I want the key to your heart

You tease me cos you know I need you
But how much waiting
Can one girl do for
One boy
To look at your now
Why am I waiting at all

Kind Words (And A Real Good Heart)

  • Albums: Sleight Of Hand Classics


Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get respect
Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get the best
It doesn't mean they won't get brutal
It doesn't mean they won't assault you
With a kind heart
With a kind heart

Bad guys sometime hard to find
Cos they don't all dress in black
Good guys sometime make mistake
I say don't look
Don't look back
Be mindful how you get used up
You can't always
Trust an honest man
Be mindful how you get used up
You can't always
Trust an honest man

You gotta make your own beginning
Mark it down
Growing pains
With a kind heart
With a kind heart

Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get respect
Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get the best
It doesn't mean the whole world loves you
It doesn't mean more than it means
A kind heart
A kind heart

Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get respect
Kind words and a real good heart
Doesn't mean you get the best

Kissin And A Huggin

  • Albums: Show Some Emotion Steppin' Out (live)


Took my babe walking
We went down to the sea
You know I talked of loving
And you talked of love to me

We sat down under a bus shelter
And talked of other things
But bit by bit by bit by bit
It came round again
How much in love are we

It was a fine thing
We were young
So much love to give
It was the right thing
We were alone
Under the stars


Getting in the mood
Kissing under the
Big
Bright
Shiny stars
That light up the sky
Kissing in front of that old lady
Who just walked past our seat
Getting in the mood
Kissin' and a huggin'
Because
