Lyrics Everything But the Girl

Everything But the Girl

Shoot Me Down

Hush your mouth now honey mine

Have you been waiting all this time

To so loudly disagree

Kick the feet from under me

Did you come here to shoot me down

Bury my on my own home ground

Hold your tongue now mother mine

For you've held it all this time

And now's no time to shout and swear

That you despise the things I care about

For your territory

Will always be miles and miles from me

Stop my mouth with kisses dear

For ever they will keep me here

And these drunken blasphemies

Must never make us enemies

For we'll have to meet once more

Sober and as strongly BOUND as before
