The Skin Game — текст песни (Gary Numan)

You`re welcome to fame
You`re welcome to try
I`ve been on TV, sold my face to you


You`re welcome to love
You`re welcome to me
I burned my dream, sold my heart, nobody knew


Listen children
I`ve seen my future
Call it the deadline for now
I`ve heard secrets
I`ve heard excuses
I`ve heard a voice in the dark


You`re waiting for me
You`ve made a mistake
I`ll give you nothing but lies, or nothing at all


I`m playing a game
I`m playing with you
I call it shameful, `the skin game,` don`t you?
You`re playing it cold
(Ripping it up)
You`re playing for time
(I don`t like pictures)
You`re breaking my rules and I won`t let you go


I`m looking for you
(Welcome to me)
Somebody screamed
(It`s no use talking)
I`ve connections with God. What do you need?


Lost in junk sick
No sleep no motion
She said `he`s nothing to lose`
Love sick? Skin game
Welcome to romance
She`s like the heart of the world


I`m still breathing
Welcome to my house
I`d steal from God, wouldn`t you?
One more question
Am I in danger?
Rumours. And I`ve got the fear


Looking for you
Is it any wonder?
Tearing it up
Living on empty
