| I can see a man, well dressed and tanned
|
| Collecting you in secret in a long sedan
|
| I can hear you laugh at all his jokes
|
| Taking everything that’s offered until it chokes
|
| And it makes me want to get a lock and key
|
| Hold you down in one place for me
|
| Can’t own the flesh and blood I need
|
| Can’t have love without greed, without greed oh oh oh
|
| He may get your kiss and believe that it’s his
|
| But you know baby I hit your heart where where the others only missed
|
| You can ease your heat in a penthouse suite
|
| While I’m in a hotel with some hanger-on under those dirty sheets
|
| And it makes me want to get a lock and key
|
| Hold you down in one place for me
|
| Can’t own the flesh and blood I need
|
| Can’t have love without greed
|
| Love without greed would give me some hope
|
| When I reach out in the night and grope
|
| But there’s nothing there but the next day coming in
|
| And the alarm bell goes ring ring ring ring ring
|
| It goes ring ring ring ring ring
|
| It goes ring ring ring ring ring
|
| You can ease your heat in a penthouse suite
|
| While I’m in a hotel with some hanger-on under those dirty sheets
|
| And it makes me want to get a lock and key
|
| Hold you down in one place for me
|
| Can’t own the flesh and blood I need
|
| Can’t have love without greed
|
| Can’t own the flesh and blood I need
|
| Can’t have love without greed
|
| Can’t have, love without greed |
