 CULTURE CLUB - WHITE BOY
(1982)
 
Black boys employ salassie
We kiss to define
White hands, white hearts, the gender
How can I make you mine
Take me to God
In a world of blank kisses
Who breaks the colors
I know what this is
A one man show
That's how we know
That's how we know
You're white does it show
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're...
White boys fall out
In a whirl of decisions
Show me what is
Then show me what isn't
A heart too slow
That's how we know
That's how we know
You're white does the blood flow
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're so white
White boy
White boy
White boy
White boy
White boy
White boy
White boy dance
Do something sweet
Like pull my heart
Like use your feet
Let's steal some culture
Let's fake this dance
A white boy kiss
A white boy chance
Don't take me over
Abuse my heart
When I change color
I'm here stop start
You're white
You're white
You're white
You're white
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
You're white (dance like an enemy)
Hey devil kiss me
I'm taking chances
Not faking my culture
The rhythm it dances
I love your wisdom
I love your mind
White boys are babies (Not my kind)
This lust is fashion
That's my sin
By falling out
We're falling in
Now I'm broken
Watch it flow
I'm taking over
Can't let go (falling out with the big boys)
 
CULTURE CLUB - I'M AFRAID OF ME
(1982)
 
Some days in more ways
I need the distraction
Fire, desire, love and reaction
He must be someone
Yes, even me
Something for nothing
Some wish to see
Life beyond reason
Who will I be (who will i be)
I'm afraid of me
I'm afraid of me
Always survive days
Cut and discretion
Touched in a sane way
Leave no impression
He must be someone
Yes, even you
Fool my direction
Some wish to see
Love without treason
Who will love me (who will love me)
I'm afraid of me
I'm afraid of me
(afraid to love you)
I'm afraid of me
I'm afraid of me
 
 CULTURE CLUB - DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HURT ME
(1982)
 
Give me time
To realise my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses
Words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart
The fires burning
Choose my colour
Find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step
A step too far
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Words are few
I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow
Words are token
Come inside/and catch my tears
You've been talking
But believe me
If it's true
You do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared
To let you go
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything is not what you see
It's over again
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
 
 
CULTURE CLUB - I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA!
(1983)
 
 
Downtown we'll drown
We're in our never splendor
Flowers, showers
Who's got the new boy gender
I'll be your baby, I'll be your score
I'll run the gun for you and so much more
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 you
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble
Uptown their sound
It's like the native you send her
Junction, function
The boy with pop is slender
Did he say maybe or I'm not sure
He'll be a boy for you but you need more
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 you
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble
I get a crazy feeling
That chases in my head
It's nothing that you do to me
It's nothing that you said
It's love in stereo
And when I can't let go I say
I'll be your baby, I'll be your score
I'll run the gun for you and so much more
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 you
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble
Downtown we'll drown
We're in our never splendor
Flowers, showers
Who's got the new boy gender
I'll be your baby, I'll be your score
I'll run the gun for you and so much more
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 you
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble
