Karaoké Manchild Neneh Cherry

Okay you're on your own

It's late

Your girlfriend is on another date with the hero in your dream

Turn around

Ask yourself

So you think you're gonna win this time Manchild

Is it the pain of the drinkin' or the Sunday sinkin' feelin'

The car never seems to work

When it's late your girlfriend's on a date and the hero with her in your dream in your sleep

Seemed like you

Turn around, ask yourself

Turn around, ask yourself

Manchild

Will you ever win

Manchild

Look at the state you're in

Could you go undercover and sell your brand new lover

Could you be someone else for a night

Maybe someone else will love you

You'd sell your soul for a tacky song like the ones you hear on the radio

Turn around, ask yourself

Turn around and ask yourself

Manchild

Will you ever win

Manchild

Look at the state you're in

Manchild

He will make you cry

Manchild

Manchild

Manchild

From Monday down to Friday

You're workin' on another man's car

Or is it in the factory

It doesn't matter where you are

Just turn around and ask yourself is this communication

Accentuate the positive to give some illustration

See Manchild you're no one

I turn the microphone on

Control communication when

I'm kickin' it and so on

To the point where I need

Air that I breathe

Into an audience that's waitin' and ecstatic to receive

For the meantime another mean rhyme

I keep on sayin' it

I know what the time is and the crowd will keep on playin' it

Through the speaker boxes

Loud's my diagnosis

'Cos I believe in miracles and words in steady doses

Enough R-E-S-P-E and C-T

Respect yourself

Express no stress

The mic is easy

Just believe that all you need is the air that you breathe

Manchild

Will you ever win

Manchild

Look at the state you're in

Manchild

He will make you cry

Manchild

Manchild

Manchild

He's the apple of your eye

Once bitten, twice shy

Why don't you bite me again

Just take it in right and go tell your friend

Are you ready for the words

I'll turn the microphone on

A figure of speech to reach you at the back and so on

The style that I'm stimulatin' dance floors

Raise your body temperature now and this demands for

Powers in the amp

You know loud's my diagnosis

'Cos I believe in miracles

Words in heavy doses
