D.N.A. - Joan Armatrading

Please sit down

Tell me what you got to say

Now there’s a difference between truth and lies

I can check

I’ve got your DNA

Now look me right between the eyes

Tell me when I saw you

And your new lady friend

What were you talking about

When you laughed

And your two cheeks met

What were you talking about

Let us talk

In the morning, babe

I’ve got your DNA and the lie detect

How I thought I could change you, babe

All those flies buzzing round your head

Look at me

There’s nothing new over there

You’ve seen that stereo a thousand times

Lift your head

And lift my spirits up

Because you know

I’m dying deep inside

Don’t you care about me

Are you looking for freedom

Is that what you’re thinking about

Do you wanna hold me in your arms and kiss

Cos that’s what I’m thinking about

Let us talk

In the morning, babe

I’ve got your DNA and the lie detect

How I thought I could change your ways

All those flies buzzing round your head

You got a brand new way of loving

Keeping the lights turned on

You keep a comb in your pocket

And your shinny shiny shoes

Yeah don’t touch the ground these days

What’s going on

Yeah you think I’m stupid cos I don’t complain

Better sit your self down start talking fast

And if the lying don’t kill you

The truth just might make you fade away

Fade away

Fade away
