George Michael - Precious Box lyrics

In my house there's a circle
Where the life comes in
From the stars to my home
Down through the stone
I could have been so alone
Without my precious box
Have I a family? I guess not
I've never seen a lot of beauty in my life

Well in your house there are servants
And the lights all dim
Such a beautiful home, your
Agent's on the phone, they never
Leave you alone the party never stops!
You say that's fantasy, I say 'So what
I need a little beauty' so let me in
You know you've kind of got under my skin
You know we never see a lot
Of the action round here my dear
You may want to strip again



And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
And you're making more money than your daddy
Could have imagined but people can go out
Of fashion, honey, yeah, anytime

So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm sorry baby
I don't know why
Said I don't know why that is

The systematic breakdown of my community
You know I hate my job
I tried to save but God
There's just never enough
Switch on, the pressure - stops
You know the one for me, she's on Fox
And she's a little beauty

Give me your life, give me your life
I want it
Because lately, it's so freezing out here
This side of the glass
Life keeps kicking my ass
In so many ways, but you make it good
Made me the kind of happy
That my baby never could
(This side of the glass
I know that you would, now Baby)
So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm so sorry baby
I don't know why (I don't know why)
Said I don't know why that is

M-m-m-m hmmmm precious keeps me company on
Keeps me from being alone

Because no one comes in the morning
And no one comes in the evening time
I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
I could be waiting my whole damn life

So sick of the same old faces
In this street where nobody talks to me
And the funny side of the situation is
I don't care i'll always be there
When you come down from the sky
And make yourself at home in my house
Baby
'Cause these days it's the money, the money
The money, honey, or your life
I said, don't you know you can't have both?
I said, don't you know you can't have both?
I said, don't you know you can't have both?

Stop acting so dumb the moment will come
I will find someone like you something extra
(always happens baby to me) sorry baby
I don't know why (something)
Said I don't know why that is
(Tell me why that is)

You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right

You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time

You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right

You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time

You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right

You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time
