BRONSKI BEAT - AGE OF CONSENT

Contempt in your eyes
As I turn to kiss his lips
Broken I lie
All my feelings denied
Blood on your fist

Can you tell me why?

You in your false securities
Tear up my life
Condemning me
Name me an illness
Call me a sin
Never feel guilty
Never give in

Tell me why?

You and me together
Fighting for our love

Can you tell me why?

Chorus:
Da ra da am de ra am de
Ba ra ba am dee da am doo
Ba ra am de ba ra am de
Da ra doo dee

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so

David was small but oh my (2x) 
He shot Goliath
Who lay down and dieth
Little David was small but oh my

(chorus)

Jonah he lived in a whale (2x)
He made his home in that fishes abdomen
Jonah he lived in a whale

Moses was found on a stream (2x)
Floated on water old Pharoah's daughter
Fished him she says from that stream

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
They tell all your children
The devil he's a billain
It ain't necessarily so

(chorus) 

It ain't necessarily so (2x)

Things that you're liable
To read in that Bible
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily (6x)
It ain't necessarily so

My man love my first love
My closetness and pain
My lying my deceiving
My rivers keep on crying

My father my action man
My hiding in the crowd
My mother my sisters eyes
My seniors and their prying

My freedom my prison cell
My tempting to destroy
My fantasies my lost control
My confusion disillusion

My hero my schoolboy
My physical abuse
My loneliness my aching brain
My pounding in the head

Machismo my manhood
My wanting just to scream
Scream yeah yeah heah

No more war please
No more destruction of innocent life
No more living in fear
No more on our bended knees
To live is our right

No more war
No more war please
It's got to stop oh we've got to make it stop

No more money for bombs
When the poor people hungry on the street
No more sending young men to fight
As they die for false glory and false pride (do or die)

No more war please
Who wants to die
No more war please
Who wants to die
No more war no more war no more
Who wants to die who wants to die

Pain and lust lust for money

Exploit for money kill for love
Love for money exploited love

Love and money (2x) 

Burning me up
Oooh it's burning me up (repeat the two verses)

Work for money spend money
Spend for love love for money
Money is the root of all evil (4x)

Hey-yah-hey

Refrain 1:
You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home

Chorus:
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away. (2x)

Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down

And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul

(chorus)

Cry , boy, cry...

(refrain 1)

(chorus)

Hey we're headin' for a summer heatwave
Boys we're headin' for a summer heatwave

Tattoos and muscle passion and sweat
Summer he-e-e-e-e-eat wave
Yeah yeah

Dee dab dee ra dee dab dee dab doo yeah (4x) 

Summer heat save (4x) 

De ha ra doo yeah

He can't take the street no more
Street too full full of junk
Thinks he'll hide in his room
Room too full full of junk

He turns to his T.V. T.V. full full of junk
Processed zombies pushing junk
Junk food junk clothes
Dressed in junk from head to toe

Eat what you're given
Eat what you get (repeat 4x the two verse)

Be thankful what you get
He screams for more
Hits the night life once again
Night life full full of junk

Junk is all he'll ever know
Junk music junk dance
Too many junkheads on the floor

(Repeat chorus to end)
