Precious Box - Remastered 2006

Lyrics

In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
 From the stars to my home, down through the stone
 I could have been so alone
 Without my precious box
 Have I a family? I guess not
 I've never seen a lot of beauty
 In my life
 Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
 Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone, they never
 Leave you alone
 The party never stops!
 You say that's fantasy, I say 'So what, I need a little beauty'
 So let me in
 You know you've kind of got under my skin
 You know we never see a lot of the action round here
 My dear
 You may want to strip again
 And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
 And you're making lot more money than your daddy
 Could have imagined
 But people can go out of fashion, honey, yeah, any time
 So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
 Don't you know that the moment will come
 I will find someone like you
 But with something extra, I'm sorry baby
 I don't know why
 Said I don't know why that is
 The systematic breakdown of my community
 You know I hate my job, I tried to save but God
 It's just never enough
 Switch on, the pressure - stops
 You know the one for me, she's on Fox
 And she's a little beauty
 Give me your life, give me your life, I want it
 'Cause it's lately so freezing out here
 This side of the glass, life keeps kicking my ass
 In so many ways, but you make it good
 Made me the kind of happy that my baby never could
 (This side of the glass
 I know that you would, now Baby)
 So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
 Don't you know that the moment will come
 I will find someone like you
 But with something extra, I'm so sorry baby
 I don't know why
 Said I don't know why that is
 Precious keeps me company on
 Keeps me from being alone
 Because no one comes in the morning
 And no one comes in the evening time
 I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
 I could be waiting my whole damn life
 So sick of the same old faces
 In this street, where nobody talks to me
 And the funny side of the situation is
 I don't care, I'll always be there
 When you come down from the sky
 And make yourself at home
 In my house, Baby
 'Cause these days it's the money, the money
 The money, honey, or your life
 I said don't you know you can't have both?
 I said don't you know you can't have both?
 I said don't you know you can't have both?
 Stop acting so dumb
 The moment will come
 I will find someone like you
 Something extra, (always happens baby to me) sorry baby
 I don't know why (something)
 Said I don't know why that is
 (Tell me why that is)
 You may want to strip again
 You may want to let me in
 You may want to sacrifice
 More than you think is fair or right
 You may want to think again
 You may want to watch your friends
 You may want to change your mind
 You may wish you could turn back time
