XTC - The Loving lyrics
[XTC - The Loving lyrics]
Every boy and every girl need the loving
The humble and the great
Even those we think we hate need the loving
Soldiers of the queen
All the hard men that we've seen
Need the loving babies at the breast
Those in power and those suppressed
Need the loving
Let's face it you just can't hide
Your first taste'll send you reeling
Like a firework to which we're tied
Be prepared to go through your ceiling now
The loving's coming
The loving's more than just an adman's vision
The loving's strumming
On your heart strings
So loud that you can't help but listen
Sailors on the seas
Or the clergy on their knees need the loving
All the rich and poor
Even those we fight at war need the loving
That thing that we need most of
That stuff we should try before we've died
Everyone is begging to be loved
With a free gift, a working heart inside
The loving's coming
The loving's advertised in all the papers
The loving's humming
Your favorite song but for once
It won't annoy the neighbors
The loving, the loving
All round the world, every boy and every girl
Need the loving cold hearted or warm
Every single person born needs the loving
Way out there in space
Think we'll find that alien race
Needs the loving and just to end the list
Everything that could exist needs the loving
The loving's coming the loving's coming
The loving's coming
