A Slow Song - Joe Jackson

    Music has charms they say
    But in some people's hands
    It becomes a savage beast
    Can't they control it
    Why don't they hold it back

    You see my friend and me
    Don't have an easy day
    And at night we dance not fight
    And we need the energy
    If not the sympathy

    But I'm brutalized by bass
    And terrorized by treble
    I'm open to change my mood but
    I always get caught in the middle

    And I get tired of DJ's
    Why's it always what he plays
    I'm gonna push right through
    I'm gonna tell him too
    Tell him to
    Play us
    Play us a slow song

    It's late - I'm winding down
    Am I the only one
    To want a strong and silent sound
    To pick me up and undress me
    Lay me down and caress me

    I feel you touch my hand
    And whisper in my ear
    Ask me how I'm feeling now
    And I want to get near you
    But I can't even hear you

    But this is a fine romance
    If we have to be so demanding
    We need just one more dance to
    Leave here with an understanding

    And I get tired of DJ's
    Why's it always what he plays
    I'm gonna push right through
    I'm gonna tell him too
    Tell him to
    Play us
    Play us a slow song
