Lyrics
I'd like to tell a story about a girl who wanted love
She had a hurtin' heart and a wild imagination
She tried to trust another with her spliced concentration
She only felt such mad frustration
Cause all he wanted was penitration
Again and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
and Again
I'd like to know the future
Can a man give honest love
To a girl who has opinions and knows they're well thought of
It's sad to see these people who are living in the streets
This man's pissing through a fence
But hence he shouts "Hey Baby"
Again and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
and Again
I say hey hey..............
I'd like to think that someday I'll be gettin outa here
And be living in a kingdom where my mind escapes this fear
It's not healthy to be living in a place where no one stops
Or speaks to other people
It's a shame to blame the city
Again and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
and Again .........
I'd like to know what happens to the girl who wanted love
Does she settle down and crown her king of glory
I'd like to live the future cause now I've one expression
I must escape this depression and make no more confessions
Again and Again
Again and Again
Again and Again
and Again .........
I say hey... hey...
(whisteling)
