I'm in love with the bossonova

He's the one with the cashanova

I'm in love with his heart of steel

I'm in love

I'm in love with the bossonova

He's the one with the cashanova

I'm in love with his heart of steel

I'm in love

How come no-one ever told me

Who I'm working for

Down among the rich men baby

And the poor

Here comes love forever

And it's here comes love for no-one

Oh here comes love for Marilyn

And it's oh my baby oh-oh my baby

What you gonna do?

In the reason - in the rain

Still support the revolution

I want it I want it I want that too

B'baby B'baby it's up to you

To find out somethin' that you need to do

Because

I'm in love with a Jacques Derrida

Read a page and know what I need to

Take apart my baby's heart

I'm in love

I'm in love with a Jacques Derrida

Read a page and know what I need to

Take apart my baby's heart

I'm in love

To err is to be human

To forgive is too divine

I was like an industry

Depressed and in decline

Here comes love for ever

And it's here comes love for no-one

Oh here comes love for Marilyn

And it's oh my baby oh my baby

What you gonna do?

In the reason - in the rain

Still support the revolution

I want it I want it I want that too

B'baby B'baby it's up to you

To find out somethin' that you need to do

Because

Oh I'm in love with bop sh'dayo

Out of Camden Town for a day - oh

I'm in love with just gettin' away

I'm in love

Oh I'm in love with militante

Reads Unita and reads Avanti

I'm in love with her heart of steel

I'm in love

He held it like a cigarette

Behind a squadee's back

He held it so he hid its length

And so he hid its lack - oh

An' it seems so very sad

(all right!)

Well I want better than you can give

But then I'll take whatever you got

Cos I'm a grand libertine with the

Kinda demeanour to overthrow the lot

I said rapacious

Rapacious you can never satiate

(ate what?!) desire is so voracious

I wanna eat your nation state

I got incentive that you can't handle

I got the needs you can't assuage

I got demands you can't meet

'n' stay on your feet

I want more than your living wage

Well I want better than you can give

But then I'll take whatever you got

Cos I'm a grand libertine with the

Kinda demeanour to overthrow the lot

I said rapacious

Rapacious you can never satiate

(ate what?!) desire is so voracious

I wanna eat your nation state
