Cruel (Album Version) - Prefab Sprout[00:00:00]
Cruel is the Gospel that's sets us all free[00:00:10]
Then takes you away from me[00:00:14]
There is no Chicago urban blues[00:00:19]
More heartfelt than my lament for you[00:00:26]
I'm a liberal guy too cool for the macho ache[00:00:34]
With a secret tooth for the cherry on the cake[00:00:41]
With a pious smile[00:00:48]
A smile that changes what I say[00:00:51]
While I waste my time in regretting[00:00:55]
That the days went from perfect to just okay[00:01:00]
Lordy what would I do [00:01:08]
Don't call me possessive[00:01:12]
But God if he's smoochin' with you[00:01:14]
I's a jealous boy root the world should be free[00:01:17]
But don't you go following suit[00:01:21]
My heart is aligned[00:01:24]
It couldn't be neutral[00:01:26]
I couldn't be that way inclined[00:01:28]
It's hard to defend[00:01:32]
Paa paa paa these feelings might tuppent up friend[00:01:33]
It's cruel[00:01:39]
Paa paa paa it's cruel[00:01:41]
Paa paa paa it's cruel it's crueler than cruel[00:01:48]
But cruel is the Gospel that's sets us all free[00:01:57]
Then takes you away from me[00:02:02]
Should a love be tender and bleed out loud[00:02:07]
Or be tougher than tough[00:02:14]
And prouder than proud [00:02:18]
If I'm troubled by every folding of your skirt[00:02:22]
Am I guilty of every male inflicted hurt [00:02:29]
But I don't know how to describe the modern rose[00:02:36]
When I can't refer to her shape against her clothes[00:02:43]
With the fever of purple prose[00:02:50]
Lordy what would I do [00:02:56]
Don't call me possessive[00:03:00]
But God if he's smoochin' with you[00:03:02]
I's a jealous boy root the world should be free[00:03:05]
But don't you go following suit my heart is aligned[00:03:09]
It couldn't be neutral I couldn't be that way inclined[00:03:14]
It's hard to defend[00:03:20]
Paa paa paa these feelings might tuppent up friend[00:03:22]
It's cruel[00:03:27]
Paa paa paa it's cruel[00:03:29]
Paa paa paa it's cruel it's crueler than cruel[00:03:36]
But cruel is the Gospel that's sets us all free[00:03:46]
Then takes you away from me[00:03:50]
Cruel is the Gospel that sets us all free[00:03:56]
Then takes you away from me[00:04:01]
My contribution to urban blues[00:04:06]
