A Slow Song (Live)

A Slow Song (The Body And Soul Tour / 1984) - Joe Jackson

Music has charms they say

But in some peoples hands

It becomes a savage beast

Can't they control it

Why don't they hold it back

You see my friend and me

Don't have an easy day

And at night we dance not fight

And we need the energy

If not the sympathy

But I'm brutalized by bass

And terrorized by treble

I'm open to change my mood but

I always get caught in the middle

And I get tired of djs

Whys it always what he plays

I'm gonna push right through

I'm gonna tell him too

Tell him to

Play us

Play us a slow song

A slow song

A slow song

A slow song

Its late - I'm winding down

Am I the only one

To want a strong and silent sound

To pick me up and undress me

Lay me down and caress me

I feel you touch my hand

And whisper in my ear

Ask me how I'm feeling now

And I want to get near you

But I can't even hear you

But this is a fine romance

If we have to be so demanding

We need just one more dance to

Leave here with an understanding

And I get tired of djs

Whys it always what he plays

I'm gonna push right through

I'm gonna tell him too

Tell him to

Play us

Play us a slow song

A slow song a slow song

A slow song

And i get tired of dj's

Why's it always what he plays

I'm gonna push right through

I'm gonna tell him too

Tell him to

Play us

Play us a Play us a

Play us a slow song

Play us a slow song

Play us a slow song

Play us a slow song
