Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes?" Less of an ear worm, more of an ear cockroach. ENJOY!


With the heartbreak open
So much you cant hide
Put on a little makeup makeup
Make sure they get your good side good side

If the words unspoken
Get stuck in your throat
Send a treasure token token
Write it on a pound note pound note

Dont drink dont smoke - what do you do?
Dont drink dont smoke - what do you do?
Subtle innuends follow
There must be something inside hes hiding

We dont follow fashion
That would be a joke
You know were going to set them set them
So everyone can take note take note

When they saw you kneeling
Crying words that you mean
Opening their eyeballs eyeballs
Pretending that youre al green al green

No ones gonna tell me
Whats wrong or whats right
Or tell me who to eat with sleep with
Or that Ive won the big fight big fight

Look out or theyll tell you
Youre a superstar
Two weeks and youre an all time legend
I think the games have gone much too far

If the words unspoken
Get stuck in your throat
Send a treasure token token
Write it on a pound note pound note

Dont drink dont smoke - what do you do?

3. Saw him in concert in '82--great show!
It was at an old theater that wasn't used to holding concerts. We were in the fourth row. He did his best to whip up the crowd (didn't take much--we all LOOOOVED the guy) but every time we stood up to dance, the ushers would swoop in: "SIT DOWN!!!" AA was boggled, watching the crowd essentially do "the wave" without the arm movements--we were all up...we were all down. We were all up...we were all down.

Once he figure out what was going on, he got into a battle with the ushers by calling for us to stand up right after they made us sit down. Over and over till they gave up. By the fifth song we were standing on the ARMS of the chairs. The ushers must've been having heart attacks in the back of the auditorium.

Damn, that was a great show.
