That's The Way (I'm Only Trying To Help You)

(album: Colour By Numbers - 1983)

Clowns caress you
Figures undress your fear
Induce the crime beyond emotion
Shedding tears as big as the ocean
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one that never cries
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out, shut it out
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out of your mind
That's the way
That's the way
If I address you
And you see me in the shadows falling
Call, caress me
Hey I woke up on my own this morning
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one that never lies
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out, shut it out
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out of your mind
That's the way, that's the way
I'm only trying to help you
