Temperamental

Divinyls Temperamental Lyrics
1.Temperamental

Nothing ends up right when you're in a craze
Why don't you grow up come on now act your age
Oh when you lose your cool you lose your reason too
You shouldn't say those things
Oh when your face is red

Like the sun, like the wind like the weather

You're temperamental (your new car)
Temperamental (new tv)
Temperamental (stereo)
Temperamental (you and me)
Temperamental (your new dog)
Temperamental (love dog)
Temperamental (new girlfriend) (you and me)

Why don't you sit back
And just be worldly and wise
When you shoot your mouth off
You never apologise
Oh when you lose your cool
You look so stupid too

You shouldn't say those things
When your face is red

Like the sun, like the wind like the weather

You're temperamental (your new car)
Temperamental (new tv)
Temperamental (stereo)
Temperamental (you and me)
Temperamental (your new dog)
Temperamental (love dog)
Temperamental (new girlfriend) (you and me)

Like the sun, like the wind like the weather


2.Back To The Wall

We are living in desperate times
These are desperate times my dear
There's no way out of here
There's no way out my dear
I've been holding back all my tears
Just so the pressure don't show
Like a time bomb ticking away
I might blow up some day

Don't push don't shove
Better watch what you do
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all
When my back's to the wall
I might take any chance at all
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything

You've got the upper hand
Well i've got nothing to lose
When i'm trapped in a corner like this
I might light a fuse
Don't push me too far
You better watch what you do

Don't push me too far
You better run for your life

I've got nothing to lose
I might light a fuse
Yeah yeah
Don't come any closer


3.Hey Little Boy

Hey little boy
You don't have to hide nothing no more
You didn't do nothing
That hasn't been done before

Little boy thought he wouldn't get caught you see
He thought he'd get away with going out on me

Other boys did it
You didn't think of nothing new
You went out on me
So other boys did it too

You can leave little boy
I don't want you round here no more
Don't come knockin'
You won't get past my door

You've got nothing to hide
And everybody knows it too
Too bad little boy
It's all over for you


4.Punxsie

I might be in the dark but you know who you are
They say you're the strangest one in the world
But i'm not worried no, no, no i'm not worried

You're such a punxsie thing hey looking for danger signs
Hey punxsie you don't talk to strangers

Others might put you down but myself i've finally found
That you're making my whole world go around
And it's no sacrifice no, no no it's no sacrifice

Sitting here thinking, thinking well
Sometimes in life sometimes in life
There are things you want i know what i want
There are things that you need i know what i need bet you were
quite a toy when you were a baby
And baby that ain't that long ago
But you don't want no one to know
But you don't want no one to know

Chorus

Punxsie oh yeah things that you want
Punxsie oh yeah things that you need
Punxsie oh yeah
See you 'round and around see you around


5.Dance Of Love

We got feelings
We both admire the same things
We've taken chances
And we know what the pain in
Oh and i'm trying not to break
Your hear oh i'm trying

Know this before you start
You could lose your heart
In the dance of love
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Better watch your step
In the dance of love

We both agree we're in the same mess
If things get tight
Our whole world knows it's alright
Oh and i'm trying to find a place
To start oh i'm trying

Chorus

Oh, oh, oh superstitious
We had our hit and misses
If things get tight
Our whole world knows it's alright
Oh, oh and i'm trying not to break your heart
Oh, oh and i'm trying


6.Better Days

Nothing's gonna change my love
And all the things that i'm thinking of
Nothing's gonna change my world
And all the things that are in the world

I'm back, back on the corner
Back on the street back with my friends
Back on the street back with my friends
Back on my feet back in the neighborhood

Better days i'm changing those days
In so many ways for better days

Bad old days i'm changin those days
In so many ways for better days

Nothings going to break my back
Or change my perception of where it's at
No one's going to break my neck
There's people here that statement will regret

Been going forward backward forward
Backward sometimes i've been standing still

Hey

I'm back, don't need a shoulder
I'm getting older getting much bolder
Changing those dreams for facts


7.Fighting

I'm shattered to pieces there's a pounding in my chest
But there's no time to sit down and take a rest
I'm losing my resistance and i'm coming after you
I'm losing my resistance and i'm coming after you
After you - you, you, you , you

This time i gotta cause worth fighting for
Well, you know, this time
I gotta cause worth fighting for

My blood is boiling my fever is high
But i'm going to give it one more try
I'm losing my complacency and i'm coming after you
I'm losing my complacency
And i'm coming after you, after you
You, you, you, you

This time i gotta cause worth fighting for
Well, you know, this time
I gotta cause worth fighting for

Gotta stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
Is when things hurt the most that you must not quit
I'm losing my resistance and i'm coming after you
After you

This time i gotta cause worth fighting for
Well, you know, this time
I gotta cause worth fighting for


8.Run-a-way Train

Little lucy had grown quite tall
We said to her take it slow
The turnstiles turn the dress
That didn't hang quite so low
It didnt' hang quite so low

She'd hang around the railway tracks
Watching the trains go by
She got on a long red train
And the on the platform waved bye bye
The on waved bye bye

She's just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
She's just a girl, not a bad girl
She's a runaway train

We'd tried to find which route she took
Or if she's coming back
No trace of her anywhere, we looked
Ask the weeds along the track
Ask the weeds along the track

She's just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
She's just a girl, not a bad girl
She's a runaway train

We said to her, take it slower
She said, i can't i got to go
I got to go, go, i got to go go
I got to go go, i got to go go

Look out!!! look out!!!
Look out!!! look out!!

She goes on never stopping
The wind now drives her along
The road she travelled, on & on
There's always a wind-a-blowing
There's always a wind-a-blowing

She's just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
She's just a girl, not a bad girl
She's a runaway train

She's a run-a-way train
She's a run-a-way train
She's a run-a-way train
She's a run-a-way train


9.Out Of Time

We're out of time
Things don't work the way they should
These words that rhyme
Don't say things good
Out of touch
Words dont' always mean that much
Out of reach loves out of time
But something's wrong
We're out of reach
Nothing left for us to teach
These golden words
That stay unsaid
On the road danger lurks at every curve
We've hit the street
Love's out of time
Which leads to the questions
Which least to the answers
Which leads to the problems in our time

It's a no win situation (8 times)

Loves was so divine
Has now gone out of time
Love was so divine
Has now gone out of time
Which least to the answers
Which leads to the problems in our time
In our time
In our time
In our time
Aa-hoo
Aa-hoo
Da da da da
Da da da da
