Godley & Creme - Under Your Thumb Lyrics
I was standing in the stationbeing pounded by the rainso I chose the last compartmentof a stationary trainI felt someone get in behind mebut I never caught their eyebut I thought I heard I heard a woman's voicewhispering goodbyeSo I lay down in the darknesswith the beer and coffee stainsand I stared out at the thunderthrough the broken window panesAnd although the storm was boominglike an engine in the skyI'm sure I heard a woman's voice cryDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumbit's over and doneI'll never be under your thumb foreverSo I rolled myself a cigaretteand smoked it on my ownbut it didn't stop the whispersor the smell of her cologneThen she rose up out of nowhereand her hair was full of steamand she stuck her head out the windowand screamed and screamed, she screamed!Don't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumbit's over and doneI'll never be under your thumb foreverSo I picked up an old newspaper to readand I noticed something very strange indeedSo I looked a little closerand it chilled me to the bone"Woman throws herself from speeding train,identity unknown"But I recognized the picture of the woman who was deadand underneath the picture it saidDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumbit's over and doneI'll never be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumb foreverDon't wanna be under your thumbit's over and doneI'll never be under your thumb forever
