Scritti Politti the word girl flesh blood version

Select language to translate this lyric

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)
