Bet You Wanna Take It All / Hold On, Hold On

(album: Back To Front - 1982)

[Bet You Wanna Take It All]

Feeling bad, back against the wall
Sick and tired cos you've heard it all
You've been around and still you find
You're looking for the answer

You know I'm by where the drinks are cold
And then I'll look at you like you were old
Why did I notice you at all?
You know that they can't help it

You gotta drink just to pass the time
You want a beer, won't you get the wine?
You say it's all, it's all just fine
Cos you're talking to the bar maid

She said she dreams of a life abroad
And then her husband is inside the fraud
You said you're no familiar call
But you wanna take advantage

Oh, what a night!
Likely you just can't fail to answer the call
Well no one said I doubt old sun
I bet you wanna take it all

You gotta dance when you're feeling right
You gotta hand in the pale moonlight
You gotta hum it on alone
Then how far you gonna chance it?

You think you'd better go on back to the bar
She says why don't you come and take a shower
You can't believe you look so far
And you're shaking with excitement

Honey, I want it
Honey, I want it
Always say what I know when it's right
When I feel it in my heart

Honey, I want it
Honey, I want it
Heaven knows when the future will be
Not then when I start

Oh, what a night!
Likely you just can't fail to answer the call
Well no one said I doubt old sun
I bet you wanna take it all

You said you never like the march of touch
And that you got up on a stroll approach
And you were he, and she was she
It's a perfect situation

And then she said she want it there then
You're sure you wanna start it in the den
If you recall you took it all
You just kept on saying, you just kept on saying...

[Hold on, Hold on]

Makes it all so much better
And I wanna tell you I feel it in my heart
You know how, know how I love all the things I said about honey
Nothing is naughty dreams, catches made a sound, you gotta

Hold on, hold on
Do you even know you can make it?
Hold on, hold on
Do you even know how you can?

Makes it all so much better
You're having it all right, sing in your head

Hold on, hold on
Do you even know you can make it?
Hold on, hold on
Do you even know how you can?

You gotta dance when you're feeling right
You gotta take what you can tonight
You gotta stand before you're home
I'll never be sheltered

You gotta stand back against the wall
You gotta think what you had at all
You gotta tell them what they know
Is that what you wanted?

Honey, I want it
Honey, I want it
They don't know that it's wrong, it's their fault
They do not already know

Honey, I want it
Honey, I want it
They don't know that it's wrong, it's their fault
They do not already know
