Something He Can Feel

Afrika Bambaataa feat. Boy George
Baby
It's all about making him feel something too, right ladies
There you go

Many say that I'm too young
To let you know just where I'm coming from
But you will see it's just a matter of time
My love will surely make him mine

Living in a world of 'get a life'
Everyone seems so uptight
Nothing's wrong
It's alright, my man

I kinda like the ways we have our fun
His loving ways when we're all alone
Yeah, help that man
People out there can understand

Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real (her love is real)
Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real (my love is real)

So much love for us it seems
So much hope for material things
Are they only in our dreams

So I write the songs for you
To prove that real things do come true
Won't you tell me what it means

Living in a world of 'get a life'
Everybody seems so uptight
Nothing's wrong
It's alright, my man

I kinda like the ways we have our fun
His loving ways when we're all alone
Yeah, help that man
People out there can understand

Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real (her love is real)
Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real (my love is real)

Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real (her love is real)
Giving him something he can feel
Giving him something he can feel

Giving him something he can feel
Giving him something he can feel
Giving him something he can feel
Giving him something he can feel

To let him know my love is real
Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real
My love is real

Touch me darling
My mind, body and soul

Living in a world of 'get a life'
Everybody seems so uptight
Nothing's wrong
It's alright, my man

I kinda like the ways we have our fun
His loving ways when we're all alone
Yeah, help that man
People out there can understand

Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real
Giving him something he can feel
To let him know my love is real


More Than Likely

P.M Dawn feat. Boy George
(PM Dawn)
What's the use in trying
If all my senses say no place exists for you
What's the use in holding out my arms
I couldn't find reasons if I tried to

(Boy George)
What's the use in floating
If all it does is tell you someone's under you
What's the use in being if I learn
To be neglectful towards the things that mean the most to most of you
But I can hear me say

(Both) More than likely, I'm the one you're living for
(PM) If I find out I am
Then I'll finally understand when I say
(Both) More than likely, I'm the one you're living for
(BG) More than likely
(PM) Living for
(BG) More than likely
(PM) Living for

(BG)
What's the use in praying (tell me)
For all the things that mean so much to none of you
What's the use in pouring out my heart
Into situations I could cry through

(PM)
Oh what's the use in closing
All the doors that let the loving into you
What's the use of loving if I learn
Not to feel anything at all even if it means the most to you
But I can hear me say

(Both)
More than likely, I'm the one you're living for
(BG)
If I find out I am
Then I'll finally understand when I say
(Both) More than likely, I'm the one you're living for
(PM) You're living for
(BG) I'm the one you're living for

(PM)
Even if you find
That I'm transcending most of my mind
(BG)
Through the often closing doors
Of what's to come and what's in store.

(PM)
Even if because
You find I'm sendi ng most of my love
(BG) To the often closed minds
That must inquire, what you're living for.

(PM)
What's the use in changing... (let go)
To all the hopes that leave you somewhere next to lies
(BG)
What's the use in buying all my time
To try and figure out the frame that likes to communicate through signs
I can hear me say.

More than likely, I'm the one you're living for
If I find out I am
Then I'll finally understand when I say
More than likely, I'm the one you're living for

I'm the one you're living for



Human Beings

Guarangi feat. Boy George
Radio Edit
Hello Planet Earth
They say your human birth
Is something very special to behold

You were sent here to observe
But we feel somewhat disturbed
'Cause no one seems to fit that special mould

We're looking for the human beings
I don't know if they're around
We're looking for the human beings
I don't know where he's to be found

Some song warm inside
And read between the lines
And polished up their hearts until they shone (shining so bright)

They've gone to higher ground (looking for the light)
Inside you read their thoughts
While Tokyo, New York and London's gone

We're looking for the human beings
I don't know if they've survived
We keep looking for the human beings
I don't see so many alive

Mother oh so proud
Your hands so sadly bound
You tried but you could not do anymore

And when your children burned your back (they burned your back)
They made your body black (made your body black)
And cool waters rose to try to soothe the sores

So we're turning on the human beings on the earth
We'll only learn what will set them free (oh we'll learn)
And we're turning on the human beings on the earth
It's left to me (no it's not too late) to change their destiny

We are looking for the human beings
I don't know if they're around
We keep looking (keep on looking) for the human beings
I don't know where she's to be found


Dream

From the 'One Voice: The Songs Of Chage & Aska' project
To the beat to the beat to the baby baby boom
Whatcha gonna do, gonna please me?

Some black night, who's lurking in the shadows
Full sweet lips, who's gonna take my love
Yeah you hang around here full of promise and deception
Talk is cheap when you're gonna give it up

Every night you know I need you so badly
You've got me dreaming, scheming, loving, hating, complicated
I'm so sick and tired of waiting

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad dream
This ain't no good dream
I hate the way you're treating me

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love will bring me back to you

Can't go to sleep, the demons keep on beating
My heart drum, my heart drum is banging out for you
Feel your hand on my shoulder and a breeze on my spine
Some pain, some pain, give me a good time

Every night you know I need you so badly
You've got me dreaming, scheming, loving, hating, complicated
I'm so sick of waiting

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love gonna bring me back,
Gonna bring me back to you

Got a gun, fix me in, make my head spin
Aw!
Give it up!

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad dream
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Oh oh give it up, give it up

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a bad bad dream
Night and day, day and night

Is this a good dream?
I hate the way ya .........but I'm coming back

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a nightmare
Maybe this is your dream
I hate the way you're treating me

Is this a good dream?
Feels like a oh
Oh my dreams of love gonna bring me back,
Gonna bring me back to you

Is this a good dream...



Five

Ram Jam World feat. Boy George
Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
It's good to be alive

City jam, people fly by
Crazy at the wheel
Anger in their eyes
Sense the danger
Hate the stranger
With no reason
Never ask why

Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
It's good to be alive

Tricks and lies
Play your fast hand
It's a fool game
Grab what you can
Easy
Take it easy
Oh will you leave me
Just where I stand

Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
It's good to be alive

All alone
You're terrified
All alone
Eaten up inside
And what you feel
That's all you know
So close your eyes
And let it go

Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
Five give me five six seven eight nine
Give me more time
It's good to be alive



Why Go?

Faithless feat. Boy George
Don't go

I didn't know you'd be here
And I wasn't meant to come
I'd be sitting watching TV
If there was anything decent on
If I'd missed the taxi
Or found nothing good to wear
But for some uncertain reason
Some strange uncertain reason
This is how it all
It all begun

Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while
Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while

If I made some coffee
Would you sit and talk some more?
I know words are usually pointless
When you've used them all before
The way your smile fills the room
Stay a while
Kick off your shoes
Don't go
Please stay
It always happens this way

Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while
Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while

The way your smile fills the room
Stay a while
What's there to lose?
The way you laugh
When I say
Don't go
Please stay

Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while
Why go?
Why go?
When you could stay a while
When you could stay with me tonight
Tonight



Innocence Is Lost

Groove Armada feat. Boy George
Innocence is lost with you
Kaleidoscopic crystal view
Innocence is left behind
Left forever in my mind

Weather wise it's a lovely day
Everybody's got so much to say
Stay a while, try to force a smile
I'm hoping that I'm changing

I've never had to look away
Never found it hard to stay
Something's gone that's been here so long
I'm hoping I must be dreaming

Innocence is lost with you
Kaleidoscopic crystal view
Innocence is left behind
Left forever in my mind

Innocence is lost with you, with you

Weather wise it's a lovely day
Everybody has so much to say
Can I describe how you kept me alive
When you're with me, when I'm dreaming

Innocence is lost with you
Kaleidoscopic crystal view
Innocence is lost with you
Innocence is lost - left forever in my mind

Innocence is lost with you
Kaleidoscopic crystal view
Innocence is lost with you
Innocence is lost - left forever in my mind

With you

Innocence is lost with you, with you
Innocence is lost with you, with you

Abba-Mania special featuring Culture Club, 1999
People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air

In The Ghetto

Apache Indian feat. Boy George
On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto, in the ghetto
On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto

This a ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing
Down in a the ghetto where the youth suffering
Ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing
Down in a the ghetto them no win
The youth them down a ghetto a suffer
Every morning have fe get up and raise a dollar
Have fe fight fe survive them wan fe prosper
Me want the ghetto youth them a mon fe stand up higher
So tell me what you really never know
The youth them just a cry down in a the ghetto
With no place to live and with no place to go
You no see how them suffer down in a Kosovo

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto, in the ghetto
On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto

This a ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing
Give all the ghetto youth them the blessing
Ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing
Bring all the youth out a sin
Living ina the ghetto it no fun
The youth wan fe carry fe them knife and gun
The drugs them a push but we no wan none
Have fe clean up the ghetto fe we daughter and son
Me no wan see the youth cry
Like ina Calcutta and down a Mumbai
Ca all them a struggle and a try them a try
But what them a go do a when the well run dry

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto
And his mama cried
If there's one thing that she don't need
Its another little hungry mouth to feed - In the ghetto

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'
Another little baby child is born - In the ghetto
And his mama cried
In the ghetto
And his mama cried
In the ghetto
And his mama cried



Auto-Erotic

Dark Globe featuring Boy George
Hold me, taste it
Don't love me, too safely

Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?
Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?

Closer, don't fear this
You'll know this sound when you hear it

Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?
Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?

Go slowly, don't fake it
You know this word when you say it

Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?
Are you thinking, thinking about me
Do you whisper it or say it loudly?


Run

Sash! featuring Boy George
You better run, run, run

I never lied to you
Remember what I said
You mess with my heart
I'll mess with your head

And in your pretty eyes
I saw some truth
Your head was in the stars
So what's the use?

One lie leads to another
Always watching where you tread
Fantasy or fiction baby
Be careful where you lay your head
(where you lay your head)

It's time to think about
All those wicked things you've done
If you can't love yourself
You can't love anyone

So, Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run

You held me in the morning
And whispered words like love
You don't know what it means
You ain't been hurt enough

One lie leads to another
Always watching where you tread
Fantasy or fiction baby
Be careful where you lay your head
(where you lay your head, hey-yeah)

It's time to think about
All those wicked things you say
My love is sacrament
Not some foolish game you play

So, Run, run, run, run
You better run, run, run, run

That's what you do best
That's what you do best
That's what you do best



Psychology of the Dreamer

Eddie Lock featuring Boy George
Try to be indifferent
I'll try so hard not to care
Every corner I turn
Every book I burn
Every truth I've earned took me nowhere

Oh may, may a star you save
With some magic wand take my pain away
Stop a bullet with one hand
If you think you can
Do you think you can?

When you burn all your bridges down
When the sun closes its eyes and the water ceases to flow
Oh, how tragic when you find out you knew everything you needed to know
Oh, how I cried for you, I even prayed for you
No one can understand the psychology of the dreamer
The psychology of the dreamer

Try to be consistent
I've got madness in my veins
I could kill without blessing
And I lied to myself today
I smoked a cigarette then blew the smoke in your face
I saw you climbing a social ladder into outer space

The psychology of the dreamer
The psychology of the dreamer
The psychology of the dreamer
The psychology of the dreamer



Poverty

Hi-Gate featuring Boy George
I'm scared and I'm confused you say
You've only got yourself to blame
Hung by the written word
And by the masquerade

Fear won't kill you now
The truth will blow you far, far away

How can I make sense of silence
Kneeling down to Gods that mock me for holding on
Have I no shame?

One day I know you'll feel the same

There's money in religion
There's money in war
There's money in the bank
So why do I feel so poor?

There's money in arms
But no love in yours
When everything is nothing
Poverty ain't worth begging for

I wanted worship
You climbed the ladder of fame
It's just like a circle
Like chasing your own tail

Don't talk about the future
The devil knows your name
Ain't no guest list in hell
You'll talk your way in just the same

How can I make sense of silence
Kneeling down to Gods that mock me for holding on
Have I no shame?

There's money in religion
There's money in war
There's money in the bank
So why do I feel so poor?

There's money in arms
But no love in yours
When everything is nothing
Poverty ain't worth begging for



Who Am I Today?

Morillo featuring Boy George
You're a split personality

Who'll tell me
Who am I today?
Who did I used to be?
Who am I today?
Who did I used to be?

So many questions, why must you ask?
Do you think that we were lovers in the past?
You mean past tense, no no I mean past life
Oh you're so obsessed with how and when or why

It's just superfluous
Just breathe and go
There's things you love and things that you just don't

So tell me

Who am I today?
Who did I used to be?
Who will I be tomorrow or the next time that you see me?
Who am I today?
Who did I used to be?
Who will I be tomorrow or the next time that you see me?

So who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Tell me
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Won't you tell me?

You came and went like a non event
Like a text you sent with words you never meant
You loved me ultra - you mean ultra low
check it down to the bass
where there's nowhere else to go

And if I hurt you, I meant no offence
My name is my only defence
You see, I love you, and I always will
If I never see you, I will love you still

So who am I today?
Who did I used to be?
Who will I be tomorrow or the next time that you see me?
Who am I today?
Who did I used to be?
Who will I be tomorrow or the next time that you see me?

So who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Tell me
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Won't you tell me?



White Out (Superstar)

LnM Projekt vs Vedo (feat. George and Luke Evans)
I worry about my intentions
How clearly can I see
I worry about the night chicks
As my life force returns to me

I need to sleep
To say goodbye
To the sweet girl who thought
That I was the sweetest guy

Old gypsy ladies blowing kisses
Some blue-eyed queen is on my case
And now I'm sketchin' and I'm dipping
Drifting to some far off place

Too much powder, superstar
First you laugh then you cry
Now you don't know who you are
Too much powder, superstar
First you laugh then you cry
Now you don't know who you are
Superstar



Breakdance Hunx

Kids on TV feat. Boy George
I'm gonna tell my friends about you
What do you mean by that, what friends?
I have friends and they have money
What does money have to do with anything?

Certainly you realise you have a market value
Market?
Yeah, you're a blond who breakdances and sucks cock

I see

We can make five grand a week easy off your ass
Do you think so?
I know so
Do you think so?
I know so



You Are My Sister

Antony and the Johnsons with Boy George
You are my sister, we were born
So innocent, so full of need
There were times we were friends
But times I was so cruel
Each night I'll for you to watch me as I sleep

I was so afraid of the night
You seemed to move through the places
That I feared, you lived inside my world so softly
Protected only by the kindness of your nature

You are my sister and I love you
May all of your dreams come true
You are my sister and I, I love you
May all of your, all of your dreams come true

We felt so differently then
So similar over the years
The way we laughed, the way we experienced pain
So many memories, there's nothing left to gain from a memory
Faces and walls no one else will ever know

You are my sister and I love you
May all of your dreams come true
You are my sister and I, I love you
May all of your, all of your dreams come true

All of your dreams
All of your dreams come true
I want this for you
They're gonna come - they're gonna come true
They're gonna come - they're gonna come true
I see them come for you - they're gonna come true
Oh I see them come
I see them come
I see them come
I see them come



You're Not The One

Boy George with Kinky Roland
No, don't speak, I'm not listening to you
I was dreaming we'd be together
While you played me like some kind of fool

Eyes that flicker
Soul full of promise
What you saying - it ain't what you do

If I knew what you wanted
We'd be unstoppable, I'd taste the danger
But you dance with no future
And you smile like a stranger
You're not the one (you're not the one)
You're not the one (you're not the one)

No, don't speak, I'm not listening to you
I was thinking thoughts are fatal
Words will fail us like they always do

Fragile beauty
Out of reach now
Lost in silence, now I'm lost in you

If I knew what you wanted
We'd be unstoppable, I'd taste the danger
But you dance with no future
And you smile like a stranger
You're not the one (you're not the one)
You're not the one (you're not the one)

No, don't speak, I'm not listening to you

You're not the one...

If I knew what you wanted
We'd be unstoppable, I'd taste the danger
But you dance with no future
And you smile like a stranger
You're not the one (you're not the one)
You're not the one (you're not the one)
You're not the one (you're not the one)
You're not the one (you're not the one)
