The Blow Monkeys Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.You Don't Own Me

Lyricist:John Madara, David White

You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys

Don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
Please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

'Cause you don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay

Oh, I don't tell you what to say
And I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free, yeah, and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please

You don't tell me what to do
And you don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

'Cause I don't, I don't tell you what to say, baby
And I, I don't tell you what to do
That's all I ask of you
That's all I ask of you


2.Digging Your Scene

Lyricist:Robert Howard

I just got your message baby
So sad to see you fade away
What in the world is this feeling, catch a breath and leave me
reeling?
It'll get you in the end, its God's revenge

Oh I know I should come clean
But I prefer to deceive
Everyday I walk alone and pray that God won't see me
I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong

Tell me, why is it I'm digging your scene?
I know I'll die, baby

They put you in a home to fill in
But I wouldn't call that living
I'm like a boy among man, I'd like a permanent friend
I'd like to think that I was just myself again

Oh tell me, why is it I'm digging your scene?
I know I'll die, baby

I just got your message, baby
So sad to see you fade away
I'm like a boy among men, I'd like a permanent friend
Well, I'd like to think that I was just myself again

Oh tell me, why is it I'm digging your scene?
I know I'll die, baby

Oh tell, me why is it I'm digging your scene?
I know I'll die, baby

Oh come on, baby
Oh come on, baby


3.It Doesn't Have to Be This Way

Lyricist:Bruce Robert Howard

It doesn't have to be this way
Just counting the hours
'Cos when your bed is made
Then baby it's too late

There's no hope for a hungry child
Whose joker is wild
They take all hope away
By the end of the day

Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You gonna ask for more

It doesn't have to hurt that way
Just counting the pain
You've only got yourself to blame
For playing the game

There's no hope for a hungry child no wonder!
Whose joker is wild and they take all hope
And I just can't see the sense and my mind's a haze

Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You gonna ask for more

Do you want it? Do you want it?
Don't you know that I got it baby?
Don't you know I got it baby?

And I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey! what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You better ask for more
