Lyrics The Stranglers

The Stranglers

Boom Boom

I’ve seen them come and I’ve seen them go

The string of life plays out that way

There have been times when I’ve let you know

I’m not attracted to you today

No way, uh uh, boom boom

Theres a joke in there somewhere that’s meant for you

Troubled thoughts race around my mind

Some of the blackest you can find

And like the days that go before

We’re not connected anymore

For sure, no not now, boom boom

And you dirty little secret is all yours… to play

I won't give you away

It’s all yours to play, I won't give you away

Boom boom, boom boom

We’ll surely turn a corner soon

And move the grey to black and white

Just like the phases of the moon

Just like the rain will catch the light

You’re not mine, boom boom

'Cos you can’t reject the things they take away today

The things they take away

You can’t reject the things

The things they take away, boom boom

Boom boom, boom boom....
