GIMME A SLICE

by Maggie, Terre and Suzzy Roche

Money position and power

Flashing back to the first impression

Hurrying year and slow hour

Are you ready to make some concessions

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Babbling gossip and thin ice

High flying theories and complex notions

How many times can you think twice

You're gonna have to go through the emotions

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Listen to the sound of the way you get around the room

Look into the eyes of the other butterflies that loom

Wearisome and dull weird and fantastic

Profitless and vain brave and elastic

All the lesser lights pale

You pack a punch and you don't know about it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it

Gimme a slice with everything on it
