VIOLENT FEMMES
Add it Up

B Why can't I get just one kiss(2x)
A believe me there'd be some things that I wouldn't miss
B (stop abruptly) but I look at your pants and I need a kiss

B Why can't I get just one screw(2x)
A believe me I'd know what to do
B but something won't let me make love to you

Why can't I get just one fuck(2x) I guess it's got something to do with luck
but I waited my whole life for just one

B Day...after day...I get angry...and I will say...that the day...is in my A B5 sight...when I take a bow...and say goodnight

Mo my momma momma mo my mum Have you kept your eye your eye on your son
I know you've had problems your not the only one but when your sugar left he left you on the run
Mo my momma momma mo my mum take a look now what your boy has done
he's walking around like he's number one he went downtown and he got him a gun

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me You know you got my sympathy
but don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

In your broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs Can I mix in with your affairs
Share a smoke Make a joke Grasp and reach for a leg of hope
Words to memorize Words hypnotize Words make my mouth exercise
Words all fail the magic prize Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs

Mo my momma momma mo my mother I would love to love you lover
The city's restless it's ready to pounce it go here in your bedroom ounce for ounce

Said I'm giving you a decision to make Things to lose, things to take
Just as she was about ready to cut it up She said wait a minute honey I'm gonna Add it up

I'm gonna Add it up Add it up See what you got you gotta Add it up

Day after day I get angry and I will say
that the day is in my sight when I take a bow and say goodnight
goodnight
