Neneh Cherry - Phoney Ladies lyrics

rate me

If you're gonna play with my soul

Why don't you take a look at your own first.

No pain is lean enoughit's always filled with hurt

And those feelingsyou know I felt them first

And it hurts.

So why don't you stop phoney ladies in my face to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me upcalling names to cramp my freedom

And you don't even wanna see them calling names to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me up.

Nobody's gonna grab my freedomnobody's gonna mess me up.

You becoming a victim of the game

Don't you forget I'm your sister and your friend too.

The way you treat me will put this house to shame

Your secret conversations put you in the frame.

In the frame

So why don't you stop phoney ladies in my face to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me upcalling names to cramp my freedom

And you don't even wanna see them calling names to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me up.

Nobody's gonna grab my freedomnobody's gonna mess me up.

No money money money can buy what we've got

No money money money can buy what we've got

No money money money can buy what we've got

No money money money can buy what we've got.

[spoken] you're playing games

Trying to make me jealous.

It'll never save us now.

So why don't you stop calling ladies in my face to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me upcalling names to cramp my freedom

And you don't even wanna see them calling ladies to cramp my freedom

Phoney ladies that mess me up.

Nobody's gonna grab my freedomnobody's gonna mess me up...

(no money money money can buy what we've got...)
