lyrics

Feeling you've been lead astray
Shattering promises, have you been let down again?
Aren't you a delicate flower today?
Feeling you want things to change
Til now you've done nothing and yet you see fit to complain
That's right, everything must go your way

What do you want from me now?
A pound of flesh?
What you love is what you get

Expecting the world to bow down
Something for nothing with interest, paid in full on time
Poor boy! You're having a hell of a time
You think because you can smile
The stink of your mercinary nature has been disguised
No, love. I could smell you for a mile

What do you want from me now?
A pound of flesh?
What you love is what you get

But not a drop of blood
A drop of blood will spill for you
Not a drop of blood
A drop of blood will spill for you

Trapped in your impotent rage
Spitting and fizzing, demanding I hear what you say
Calm down, try not to get carried away
You're so hard done by, I know
Powerful, fortunate, happy, contented and safe
Tell me again all the struggles you face

What do you want from me now?
A pound of flesh?
What you love is what you get

But not a drop of blood
A drop of blood will spill for you
Not a drop of blood
A drop of blood will spill for you
