Lyrics for Why Don't You
Why don't you scratch me? If it makes you feel good, go on, attack me I promise I won't look Let me wipe the sweat from your brow It's so easy when you know how I want your love and I want it now Why don't you kiss me? Like they do on the screen, you know this is me You don't know where I've been And stand up closer, I won't bite at all I never think that my love is small I want your love 'cause it's such a ball She's like a baby in a cradle, I rock her fast to sleep Her manners at the table are dirty and they're cheap But I want love and not a dinner to eat Why don't you hit me? Give me a heart attack, go on and love me And I might love you back I know you're much younger than me When I pulled you off of the street It's cruel love but it's ours to keep She's like a baby in a cradle, I rock her fast to sleep Her manners at the table are dirty and they're cheap But I want love and not a dinner to eat She's like a baby in a cradle, I rock her fast to sleep Her manners at the table are dirty and they're cheap But I want love and not a dinner to eat She's like a baby in a cradle, I rock her fast to sleep Her manners at the table are dirty and they're cheap But I want love, not a dinner to eat
