Lyrics Neneh Cherry

Neneh Cherry

Hornbeam

Sporting hot jeans

Hard black soil called the chernozem

Driving uptown with some per diems

Won't somebody check the hem

Falling down this dress again

Sporting hot jeans on the butt again

Got to get home before the mayhem

Won't somebody check the tide

Before we run and hide again

Got a hornbeam growing in the garden

Always climbing the tree is the morphine

Got a view of the love and I'm chillin'

Got a view of the hem of the horizon

Stole the wheel off a car called a Porsche

While I was chewing the fat that disturbs me

It's always there because

We play the game the way we are

I got a view on outer space paparrazi

It's always there 'cause I know that they watch me

I bathe away in darkness

All because I'm paranoid

I got a hornbeam growing in the garden

Always climbing the tree is the morphine

Got a view of the love and I'm chillin'

Got a view of the hem of the horizon

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Chauvinistic femme come arousing

Got a groove in the hem of your hygiene

Won't somebody break my boundary

Leave that femme for another day

I like a brain and I like my bimbo

I like 'em vain let 'em lick my limbo

The boldest kiss the mayhem

Slipping down the waterside

Mum and dad are feeling kind of hurt

To get me back they got to get me first

Am I guilty quench my thirst

Spill my wine and French, I quim

Got a hornbeam growing in the garden

Always climbing the tree is the morphine

Got a view of the love and I'm chillin'

Got a view of the hem of the horizon

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)

Won't you

(Unbutton my stuff)

Won't you

(Come and zip me up)
