Танита Тикарам Twist ln My Sobriety

All God's children need travelling shoes
Drive your problems from here
All good people read good books
Now your conscience is clear,
I hear you talk, girl
Now your conscience is clear

In the morning when I wipe my brow
Wipe the miles away
I like to think I can be so willed
And never do what you say, I'll never hear you
And never do what you say

Look, my eyes are just holograms
Look, your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands, you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety

We just poked a little empty pie
For the fun that people had at night
Late at night, don't need hostility
Timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thought
Different thoughts are good for me
Up in arms and chaste and whole
All God's children took their toll

Look, my eyes are just holograms
Look, your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands, you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety

Cup of tea, take time to think, yeah
Time to risk a life, a life, a life
Sweet and handsome, soft and porky
You pig out till you've seen the light
Pig out till you've seen the light

Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell

Look, my eyes are just holograms
Look, your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands, you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety

Look, my eyes are just holograms
Look, your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands, you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
