Keating! movie - Choose Me lyrics

rate me

Song by Company B<br /><br>

PAUL KEATING:<br>

Since we've been together, baby, what a ride we've had<br>

A rollercoaster j-curbe through the good times and the bad<br>

And maybe you got the blues<br>

But if you have to choose<br>

Then choose me.<br>

<br>

JOHN HOWARD:<br>

You gave him your devotion and he treated you so cruel<br>

You took him to the top and now he takes you for a fool<br>

Who don't you break it up?<br>

It's time to shake it up<br>

And choose me.<br>

Dislocation, deprivation, well it's more than you should stand<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

Working Nation transformation needs a sure and steady hand<br>

We'll be smarter, it gets harder, but we've got to push on through<br>

<br>

HOWARD:<br>

You don't need it! Why believe it? What's your country done for you?<br>

I'll pick you pretty flowers, babe, and bring 'em to your door<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

Am I the only one to whom that promise sounds non-core?<br>

<br>

HOWARD:<br>

No, I always tell the truth<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

I think we need a little proof<br>

<br>

KEATING AND HOWARD:<br>

So choose me.<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

We had trouble, burst our bubble, but recovery is here<br>

<br>

HOWARD:<br>

I don't trust it, he'll just bust it, gonna prick your brick veneer<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

Honest Johnny, later on, we gonna see a GST?<br>

<br>

HOWARD:<br>

No I swear it, I declare it, that will never ever be!<br>

<br>

KEATING:<br>

So tell me truly, baby, is it him or is it me?<br>

<br>

HOWARD:<br>

Take a lolly, baby, think it over carefully<br>

<br>

KEATING AND HOWARD<br>

'Cos now it's up to you<br>

Whatever you want to do...<br>

But choose me.<br>

<br>
