Lyrics


1. BRING YOUR DAUGHTER... TO THE SLAUGHTER

Honey it's getting close to midnight
And all the myths are still in town
True love and lipstick on your linen
Bite the pillow make no sound
If there's some living to be done
Before your life becomes your tomb
You'd better know that I'm the one
Unchain your back door invite me around

[Chorus]
Bring your daughter
Bring your daughter... to the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go

[Chorus]
Let her go !

Honey it's getting close to daybreak
The sun is creeping in the sky
No patent remedies for heartache
Just empty words and humble pie
So get down on your kness honey
Assume an attitude
You just pray that I'll be waiting
'Cause you know... you know I'm coming soon

[Chorus] (x2)

So pick up your foolish pride, no going back
No where, no way, no place to hide... let her go !

Bring your daughter, bring your daughter (x3)
... to the slaughter

Bring your daughter... fetch your daughter (x3)
... to the slaughter

[Chorus] (x3)

Let her go ! Let her go ! Let her go !
I'm coming to get you now !


2. I'M A MOVER

I was born by the river, just like this river
I've been moving ever since
Ain't got nobody to call my own
You know I've been moving since the day I was born
Life is a game just made for fun
You know I don't love nobody
I don't love no one

Yes, I'm a mover, baby

Following the footsteps, one fine day
When I asked the wise man
C'mon which was the way
He said "Follow your heart and look for yourself
And come back and tell me
What you have learned"

Yes, I'm a mover, baby

Went back and told him, I found me a wife
Eleven children
And a real good life
Told him of love and there's a happy home
But I need... need to return
To that long winding road

Yes, I'm a mover, baby

I've got to move on down
Move on down, yeah

Move on


3. COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN

Hey girl, what you're doin' ?
Hey girl, you'll drive me to ruin

I don't know what it is about you
But I like it a lot
Oh, why don't you let me hold you
Let me feel your lovin' touch

[Chorus]
Communication breakdown
It's always the same
I'm having a nervous breakdown
Drive me insane !

Hey girl, I got something I think you want to know
Hey girl, I wanna tell you that I love you so

I wanna hold you in my arms
And feel your love tonight
I'm never gonna let you go
'Cause I like your charms

[Chorus] (x2)

Communication breakdown (x3)
I want to feel your love all night
Communication breakdown (x2)
I'm gonna make your telephone work tonight
Communication breakdown
