Magazine - Sweetheart Contract Lyrics

Artist: Magazine

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Barry Anthony Adamson, Howard Devoto, John Doyle, John Alexander Mcgeoch, David Tomlinson

We drank from cups on standard issue
Sofas under scaffolding
Informed sources said we were seen
By observers it's a meeting

I received an education
I was dominant for hours

I won myself a wealth of weapons
Super massive wealth
Under a sweetheart contract
Which clearly stated, ‽Strength is always health”

I had one upper hand
I was dominant for hours

I want to be there
On the far side of sin
I've been putting myself through hell
Waiting for hell to begin

I got insurance
I was dominant for hours

My Tour de France is to forget
All that's gone on around and about me
My manners are forever
And whatever sells the newspapers suits me

I got an education
I was dominant for hours

I had one upper hand
I was dominant for hours

I got insurance
I was dominant for hours

We'd better give it back, it's not ours
