P.j. Harvey - Shot Of Love Lyrics
"I need a shot of loveI don't need a shot of heroin to kill my disease,I don't need a shot of turpentine to bring me to my knees,I don't need a shot of codeine to help me to repent,I don't need a shot of whiskey, help me to be presidentI need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveDoctor, can you hear me? I need some MedicaidI seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.What I got it ain't painful, it's just bound to kill me deadLike the men that followed Jesus when they put a price upon His headI need a shot of love, I need a shot of love. (woo-hoo)I don't need no alibi, when I'm spending time with youI've heard all of them rumors and i know you heard 'em too.So don't show me no picture show, don't give me no book to read,It don't satisfy the hurt inside or the habit that it feeds.I need a shot of love, I need a shot of love (oo-oooh)I need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveI need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveWhy would I want to take your life?You've only murdered my father, raped his wife,Tattooed my babies with a poison pen,Mocked my God, humiliated my friends.I don't wanna be with nobody tonight,Veronica ain't nowhere,Mavis just ain't right.There's a man who hates me and he's swift, smooth and near,Am I supposed to sit back and wait until he's here?I need a shot of love, (oo-ooh) I need a shot of love (oo-oooh)I need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveI need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveI need a shot of love, I need a shot of loveI need a shot of love."
