Tom Tom Club - On The Line Again[Close To The Bone] Lyrics
* tentative transcription only! : can you help to complete it?Living close to the bone, close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneDark sneak love action on a friday nightWere going to put on the dog, were going to do it up rightBetter put me in a cage, Im feeling good and full of fightYou better take my picture quick, Im going to jump out of sightWhy thats a cool million, wow, taking in the viewLife is but a dream, not about what you doWith your blow and your juice and now youre drinking aloneIf you dont know it I can tell youWhen youre close to the boneYoure on the line againNow I can place your faceBrain food down the drain, I recognise the placeYoure on the line againYoure far away from homeYoure wearing the signs that say youre close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneYou try to gain a toe-hold, you dig in your heelsMake believe you never worry how to pay for your mealsEdges are eroding, theres a cancer in my headMy magnetisms fading, cant get out of the redI see you sitting there in your electric blue suitShady money men no longer think you are cuteYou pass the kids in the park and look how theyve grownFeel your face in the dark, feel it close to the boneYoure on the line again, and its not nice to hurtPut a lot of love into your life and put that love to workYoure on the line again, perhaps you could meet someoneWhod show you how to have it all, have fun close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneGlass partitions in your thinking cap shatterCanned music thickened ? ? ? gatheredHair line fracture visible to anyoneGetting wider by the hour, living close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneLiving close to the bone, close to the boneAnimate your backsideYoull be my inspitationTo the left and to the rightFunk is our salivation
