Extreme - More Than Words

Awww! What a sweet and romantic ballad! Right? Hmmm. Let's look at the lyrics.

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you not to say
But if you only knew

How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me, yeah
'Cos I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying, "I love you"

Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hand and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go

Summary: It's not enough for you to say you love me. I'm dumping your sorry ass unless you touch me and hold me close right NOW.

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

Happy Holidays! Here's the lyrics:

You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

Summary: Santa sees everything you do. He is JUDGING you, and he's coming to your house. So you'd better watch out, don't f'ing cry, and OBEY!!!!!

The Police - Every Breath You Take

Such emotion. Such dedication. Here's the lyrics:

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep calling baby, baby please...

Oh can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Summary: This must be another one from Santa. You belong to him. He's watching every move you make and every breath you take.

Spandau Ballet "True"

How classy! Such a soulful tune. Let's look at the lyrics:

So true.......
Funny how it seems.....
Always in time, but never in line for dreams.
Head over heels, when toe to toe,
This is the sound of my soul. (This is the sound)

I bought a ticket to the world,
But now I've come back again.
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
When I want the truth to be said.......

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue,
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun.
Listening to Marvin all night long.
This is the sound of my soul. (This is the sound)

Summary: I tried to forget about it, but I am completely obsessed with someone. I'm so crazy I can barely speak, despite the drugs I'm taking.

I'm sure there are many more songs like this, so this blog might get a sequel soon.
