Why be sweet, why be careful, why he kind?
man has only one thing on his mind
Why ask palitely, why go lightly,
Why say please?
They only want to get you on your knees
There are a few things I never could believe
woman when she weeps
merchant when he swears
thief who says he'll pay
lawyer when he cares
snake when he is sleeping
[bad word] when he prays
I don't believe you go to heaven
When you're good
Everything goes to [bad word]  anyway...

Laissez-faire mi amour, ce la vie
Shall I return to shore or swim
Back out to sea?
The world don't care what a soldier
Does in town
It's all hanging in the windows
By the pound
I don't believe you go to heaven
When you're good
Everything goes to [bad word]  anyway...

I only want to hear your purr and to hear Ou moan 
There is another man who brings the money home
I don't want dishes in the sink
Please don't tell me what you
Feel of what you think
There are few things I never could believe...

woman when she weeps
