Please Be Cruel - Inspiral Carpets

Judas' friends have got so strong

It’s through the way they made you

Carry someone else’s wrong

I’ve seen the way he ties you down

To Blind Man’s Bluff in a bridal gown

So you beat him at his games

(So you beat him at his games)

So he had to change the rules

Please be cruel

Every word that’s spoken’s

Ringing in your ears

This light we look upon

Has gone and passed a thousand years

He says you’re mutton dressed as lamb

But he’s a vegetarian

So you live to fight another day

(To fight another day)

You get weaker every way

Please be cruel

'Cause you’re a woman who needs persuading

(Needs persuading)

Never needed anybody

(Anybody)

To affect this change of life so bad

(so bad)

He needs

Judas' friends have got so strong

It’s through the way they made you

Carry someone else’s wrong

I’ve seen the way he ties you down

To Blind Man’s Bluff in a bridal gown

So you beat him at his games

(You beat him at his games)

So he had to change the rules

Please be cruel

Oh please be cruel

Oh please be cruel

Don’t know if I should

Please be cruel

Please be cruel

Please be cruel
