Texty: Tanita Tikaram. Preyed Upon.

When your life has all been token
And your stance is akin to breaking hearts
You've grown weary, I'm not weary
I can take your past

It's eye open time, sailor
When they want you to pretend
You were inside that playground
I may be old
But not so old that I can't see

See your old friends and it's fresh as dew
But see what's new and it's all the same to you
I'm not choosy and I'm just half grown
I took the old man, I gave the old man
I took the old man back home

Safe with us to serenade
To hang around your black scarf and black ways
"You have no idea", he said
"No idea of what I'll do"

And talking less it chases home
It chases dreams but I have really no reason, no goal and so
If you wanna play real basic
If you wanna help us make it
Don't forget you're alone

Unless it's all alone
Unless it's all alone
You get preyed upon
Oh ooo oh ooo, yes

I need to complicate you
To make you hate the things you might have done
An' come out into the morning
It's the sun you want
Not the foreign time

And talking less it chases home
It chases dreams but I have really no reason, no goal and so
If you wanna play real basic
If you wanna help us make it
Don't forget you're alone

Unless it's all alone
Unless it's all alone
You get preyed upon
Oh ooo oh ooo, yes
