She's The Boss (1985)












Lonely At The Top lyrics - Mick Jagger

Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
God know's you're ambitious, see you push so hard
You want to get to the top of the heap from Sunset Boulevard
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray

'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot!
It's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot!
They're going to tear your soul away

Theater is deserted and the boards are bare
You're next up for the reading and you're feeling scared
Oh, but you really want the part so bad
Yeah, go on, show them how a star should act

Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby, it's hot
They're going to tear your soul away

You could be a doctor, you could be a nurse
There's no time to rehearse
You work as a waitress, you clean up the bar
But soon you'll be noticed, you'll be a star

You get your nomination, your heart's beating fast
Yes, and the winner is you! You won the prize at last
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray

'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Yeah, baby, it's hot!
They're going to strip your soul away
It's lonely, lonely
It's lonely
You get hungry, you get thirsty
You know you get thirsty...

1/2 A Loaf lyrics - Mick Jagger

We got half a life, we got half a dream
We got half a love, we got half a scheme
Always sitting in the darkness, I'll wait for you
Nervous of the neighbors, I'd like a hotel room
Cause I'm indiscreet, can't keep quiet
Heaven I don't know how
I can't go on seeing you like this
Give that knife just one more twist
This affair is really going to break my heart

Living half a life is better than nothing, half a dream
You know I can't keep quiet 'cause I'm indiscreet
I guess half a loaf leaves me feeling hungry
Half a glass, half a dream, half a life
Heaven I don't know how!
I can't go on seeing you like this
Give that knife just one more little twist
This affair is really going to break my heart

Let's call our friends! Let's go hang out! Let's go out dancing!
Let's jump and shout! Let's go be seen! Let's dress up chic!
Show we're in love! Right on our street!
Let's go out trashy! Let's go act cheap!
What does it matter what other people think?
Step in the bright lights!
Let's go act wild!
I want to show that you're mine all mine

Here's to freezing in the doorways, here's to taking separate taxis
To our stolen conversations, we're never seen together
Half a dream, half a life, heaven I don't know how!
But I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist
This affair is really going to break my heart

I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist
I can't go on seeing you like this!
I can't go on seeing you like this!
Give that knife just one more little twist...

Running Out Of Luck lyrics - Mick Jagger

Running out of luck, running out of speed
lucking for some loving, yes I got the need
Must have spent a fortune, but did I spend it well
If I wanted water, I got it from the well
Throwing out a whole life's low life's possessions
Throwing out a whole life's low life's possessions

Running out of heat, running out of gas
Running out of money, way too fast
Running out of liquor, there's nothing left to eat
Running out of luck, hungry for the meat
Running out of whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of luck, living with the loneliness
Running out of luck, heavy on the holiness
Take it easy with the emptiness
Running out of luck

Push it to the brink, you can take it to the edge
Fighting for survival, clinging to the ledge
You can strip me back to nothing, you never get me beat

Running out of luck, just running of heat
Running out of whole life's low life's possessions

Running out of whole life's low life's possessions
Running out of luck, living with the loneliness
Running out of luck, heavy on the holiness
Easy with the emptiness
Running out of luck

Turn The Girl Loose lyrics - Mick Jagger

Turn the girl loose! I won't hurt nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her speak for herself
The hounds are on the track, they won't catch nobody
The hounds are on the track, I don't really care
Turn the girl loose! I won't touch nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her out of your heart
She's calling out across the lacquered ocean
She's calling out - hear her cry for help?

Turn the girl loose! She won't touch nobody
She ain't your mama. She ain't your sister
Let her out of your heart
Turn the girl loose! I won't touch nobody
She ain't your lover. She ain't your brother
Let her out of jail
Just turn that girl loose! I won't hurt nobody. I swear!
Let her out, let her out
Let her out, let her out of jail

You're hanging out and you're sniffing the ground for some new blood
Don't ever get careless and don't leave the keys in the door
I found her crying and helpless, we made a quick getaway
She's here to tell you she don't want to see you no more

Turn that girl loose! I won't hurt nobody
Turn the girl loose! Let her speak for herself
Put her on the rack. Put her in seclusion
When you turned your back, I got the keys to her heart
She's calling out across the lacquered ocean
She's crying, crying out for help

Turn the girl loose!
Turn the girl loose!
Turn the girl loose!
Let her speak for herself
Let her speak for herself
Let her out of your heart

Hard Woman lyrics - Mick Jagger

She's a hard woman to please
And I thought about letting her know
She's a hard lady to leave
and I thought about letting her go
She's a tough lady to leave
But, I thought about it
She's a hard lady to please, yes she is

I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds
I was romantic, she treated my cruelly
Where is the mercy, where is the love?

You see, passion has a funny way
Of burning down and running low
And suddenly it goes out
And you wonder where does it go

She's a hard woman to please
I've thought about letting her know
She's a hard lady to leave, yes she is

I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds
She was unfaithful, treated me cruelly
Where is the mercy, where is the love?

I'm alone at last; something inside of me knows
I could have loved in vain
For a thousand years
I have to let her go

I've got to let her go
I've got to say goodbye
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
She's a tough cookie, hard lady
I've got to say goodbye

Alone at last and something inside of me knows
I could have loved in vain for a thousand years
I have to let her go

And time goes so fast and new love starts so slow
I could have loved in wain for a thousand years
I have to let her go

I've got to let her go
I've got to say goodbye
Hard woman to please, yes you are
Hard woman,tough lady,
I've got to, I've got to say goodbye.
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
So long honey.

Just Another Night lyrics - Mick Jagger

Give me just another night, just another night with you
Give me just another kiss, just before the dawn breaks through
'Cause I'm homesick, feel a little down and blue
And I'm hurting, hurting baby just like you

I was lonely 'til I saw you at the station
And I never thought you'd keep our rendezvous
Baby it's true.

Give me just another night, just another night with you
Give me just another kiss, just before the dawn breaks through
'Cause I'm hungry, hungry for your loving baby
And I'm thirsty, thirsty for your loving baby

And a one-day pass to heaven is so hard to find
And a one-night pass ain't really what I had in mind
I need your sweet tenderness, I need your soft caress
I know the day is coming, don't take away your loving
Can't you see that I'm human?

Just because you've seen my face, just because you know my name
I'm a stranger in this town, can't I have my ups and downs?
Can't you see that I'm human?

I get hungry, get thirsty
I get moody, I need attention
I need your love
I need your love
I want your love

Give me just another night, just another night with you
'Cause I'm freezing in this hundred-dollar hotel room
Don't make me leave you. No, don't you be so cruel

Lucky In Love lyrics - Mick Jagger

A betting fool, a gambling man
No sooner up you're down again
Mama said you won't get hurt
Don't play the cards, you won't get burned
But there's a place where I still win
But there's no money in this thing
The game of hearts puts me in spades
The only game I got it made

Oh, I'm lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch
Lucky in love!
Suddenly, I'm dangerous

I'm betting on a filly down at the track
A natural-born winner, that's a fact
A hundred yards from the winning post
The horse fell down, must seen a ghost
But there's a place where I still win
That is still my sure-fire thing
I will play the jack of spades
You play the queen, I'll play the knave

Oh, I'm lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch
Lucky in love!!
Suddenly, I'm dangerous

I know it's a mystery when the numbers come up
'Cause mathematics is Greek to me
But I'm lucky, I'm lucky, I'm lucky in love

Yeah, Las Vegas at night at the roulette wheel
Yeah, Monte Carlo try to cut a deal
Atlantic City, I lose at craps
Back in London try to win in back
And late at night I lay in bed
With a pistol to my head
Swear I couldn't take no more
And in she walks right through my door

Oh, I'm lucky in love!
When I think I've had enough
Lucky in love!
Yes, I've got the winning touch

Suddenly, I'm dangerous

Yes I'm lucky, Yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Lucky with the ladies
Thank God for the ladies
Otherwise, I'd go, I'd go crazy
How about a line of credit
For say, ten thousand dollars?
Eighteen on the red
Put me, put me home to bed

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky
Lucky with the ladies
I'm sitting here with a full house
I just can't believe I'll lose out on this
Okay! Okay! Your ten thousand and ten thousand more
You want to raise me, you want to raise me? How about this?
Twenty thousand and twenty thousand more
Okay! You want to see me? Well I got, I got a full house
What's that? A royal flush?
Well, ain't that a bust, I'm broke!

Secrets lyrics - Mick Jagger

I heard a story, all about you
I heard the secrets, maybe they're true
I read the papers, I read the news
I hear the gossip, all about you
They say that you're really not so prim and prude
Behind it all you're rather rude
And really go for younger men
Italian types and lots of them
I can't believe it baby
Maybe it's true

Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money

I heard the stories
On saturday night, out in the back room
After one or two lies
Your name is mentioned
It gives me a fright
Dishonorable mention
Puts you in a new light

You've been going downtown slave romancing
Nasty, mean and fancy dancin
With your nose in plastic bags
People talk and tongues all wag
I can't believe it baby

I've been a fool
'Cause scales have just fell from my eyes
You can't keep up your disguise
Tell me about your adventures in living
I won't write a word of libel
Swear it on a thousand Bibles
But, I admit, I have got my misgivings
Maybe it's true

Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money

I read the papers, I read the news
I scan the columns for pictures of you
You with the husband, you with the mayor, youu with the kids
Now who are you kidding, who you kidding?
How can you dare?
While you are the mistress of a mafia man
Who's working for the Vatican
And all your money crisply ironed in off-shore banks
Your friends are kind
I can't believe it baby
Maybe it's true

Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money
Yeah, you've been a nasty girl
Yeah, you've been bad
You've been bad, you've been bad
You better come over here
And take your punishment
Bad, bad, bad! Bad, bad, bad!

Honey, honey, honey!
Do it for the money

She's The Boss lyrics - Mick Jagger

Stay home my child, stay home with me
Stay home my child, stay home with me
Oh please!

When I first met you, you looked so soft
Sso feminine, you looked so lost
What a fool I was

You called me manly, so masterful
You called me manly, so powerful
Was I ever gullible

She's the boss! She's the boss!
So I stay home, I stay home, stay hohe, stay home
It's all over, the party's over!
It's all over, I'll just shut my mouth

Now don't be cruel! Say you don't mean it
Now don't be cruel! Say you don't mean it
You the boss! Are you the boss?
She's the boss!
She's the boss in the office, she's the boss in the kitchen,
She's the boss in bed, she's the boss in my head
She's the boss! Okay!
You're the boss! Okay!
You're the boss! Okay! Okay! Okay!
I do what you say! Okay!

Now she's the guvernor, she's number one
From where I'm standing, I'm just a bum

Stay home, I stay home, stay home, stay home
It's all over, the party's over!
It's all over, the party's over!
The party's over!

Okay, I'll do what you say baby, it's okay
You want breakfast in bed? You got breakfast in bed
You want me to hold all calls? I'll hold all calls
You want me to fix your hair? I'll fix your hair
You want me to fix you dinner? I'll fix you dinner
You want me to stay up late? I'll stay up late
No problem, no problem

She's the boss! She's the boss!

It's all over, the party's over!
I'll keep my big mouth shut
Yes, she's the boss, she's the boss!
She's got the pants on, now she's the boss!
I stay home. What'd I say?
You want to what? Not right now baby
I've got a headache
You want it right now baby?
Well, I've got to wash my hair
Okay, okay! I'll do what you say, okay, okay, okay!
You're the boss, you're the boss
You've got the pants on, now you're the boss!

Eazy Sleazy lyrics - Mick Jagger (feat. Dave Grohl)

We took it on the chin
The numbers were so grim
Bossed around by pricks
Stiffen upper lips
Pacing in the yard
You're trying to take the mick
You must think I'm really thick

Looking at the graphs with a magnifying glass
Cancel all the tours, football's fake applause
No more travel brochures
Virtual premieres, I've got nothing left to wear

Looking out from these prison walls
You got to rob Peter if you're paying Paul
But it's easy easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
Soon it'll be be a memory you're trying to remember to forget

That's a pretty mask
But never take a chance TikTok stupid dance
Took a samba class yeah I landed on my ass
Trying to write a tune you better hook me up to Zoom
See my poncey books teach myself to cook
Way too much TV, its lobotomizing me, yeah
Think I've put on weight
I'll have another drink then I'll clean the kitchen sink

We escaped from the prison walls
Open the windows and open the doors
But it's easy easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
It's gonna be a garden of earthly delights
Yeah it's easy sleazy
Everything's smooth and greasy
Yeah easy, believe me
It'll only be a memory you're trying to remember to forget

Shooting the vaccine
Bill Gates is in my bloodstream
It's mind control
The earth is flat and cold
It's never warming up
The Arctic's turned to slush
The second coming's late
And there's aliens in the deep state

Now we're out of these prison walls
You gotta pay Peter if you're robbing Paul
But it's easy easy
Everything's gonna be really freaky
Alright on the night
We're all headed back to paradise
Yeah easy. believe me
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget

Easy cheesy
Everybody sing please please me
Yeah
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget

England Lost lyrics - Mick Jagger

Lost, lost, lost, lost

I went to see England, but England's lost
I went to see England, but England's lost

And everyone said we were all ripped off
I went to see England, but England lost
Lost, lost, lost
It wasn't much fun standin' in the rain
And we all yelled loud and we all complained
Wasn't much of a game
I got soaked
Didn't look home anyway

I went to see England, but England's lost
I went in the back, but they said, "Piss off"
I went to see England, but England's lost
I went to see England, but England...
I went to see...
I went...
I...

I lost a blunt, think I lost the pint
She can go home and smoke a joint, anyway
Do you wanna go?
I went to find England, it wasn't there
I went to find England, it wasn't there
I think I lost it in the back of my chair
I think I'm losing my imagination
I'm tired of talking about immigration
You can't get in and you can't get out
I guess that's what we're all about

I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but England's lost

Lost, lost, lost, lost
Lost, lost, lost, lost

Had a girl in Lisbon, a girl in Rome
Now I'll have to stay at home
So lock the shallows, bolt the doors
Nothing's gonna be like Singapore
Don't know what's home
Lost, lost, lost, lost
They didn't turn up, the comments complain
No real person is matching their shame
They're much too young and much too hold
Growing much too hot and much too cold
That's what I thought

I went to find England
I went to find England
I went to find England
I went to find England, but England's lost

England Lost (Remix) lyrics - Mick Jagger (feat. Skepta)

[Mick Jagger:]
Lost, lost, lost, lost

I went to see England, but England's lost
I went to see England, but England's lost

And everyone said we were all ripped off
I went to see England, but England lost
Lost, lost, lost
It wasn't much fun standin' in the rain
And we all yelled loud and we all complained
Wasn't much of a game
I got soaked
Didn't look home anyway

I went to see England, but England's lost
I went in the back, but they said, "Piss off"
I went to see England, but England's lost
I went to see England, but England...
I went to see...
I went...
I...

I lost a blunt, think I lost the pint
She can go home and smoke a joint, anyway
Do you wanna go?
I went to find England, it wasn't there
I went to find England, it wasn't there
I think I lost it in the back of my chair
I think I'm losing my imagination
I'm tired of talking about immigration
You can't get in and you can't get out
I guess that's what we're all about

[Skepta:]
True, preach
It's a déjà vu, I've seen it all before
Different season, same score
Everybody wants your head on a spike
But they were singin' your praises a day before
No new faces allowed in
They said it's gettin' overcrowded
They're still fightin' over houses
So I just pick it up, put it down and leave it where I found it
Feel like Macaulay Culkin, I'm home alone
Come to my window and throw a stone
Because I never wanna talk on the phone
Same problems, growin' up in the danger zone
Nothing's changed, same story
Same dirty stains on your dirty laundry
Keep it in the streets, doin' all the work
And the men in the suits takin' all the coin

[Mick Jagger:]
I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but...
I went to find England, but England's lost

Lost, lost, lost, lost
Lost, lost, lost, lost

Had a girl in Lisbon, a girl in Rome
Now I'll have to stay at home
So lock the shallows, bolt the doors
Nothing's gonna be like Singapore
Don't know what's home
Lost, lost, lost, lost
They didn't turn up, the comments complain
No real person is matching their shame
They're much too young and much too hold
Growing much too hot and much too cold
That's what I thought

I went to find England
I went to find England
I went to find England
I went to find England, but England's lost

Gotta Get A Grip lyrics - Mick Jagger

Gotta get a grip
Beat it with a stick
Gotta get a grip
She goin' for the hit
THe world is upside down
Everybody lunatics and clowns
No one speaks the truth
And madhouse runs the town
Well you gotta get a grip
Beat it with a stick
You gotta get a grip

Everybody's stuffing their pockets
Everybody's on the take
The news is all fake
Let 'em eat chicken and let 'em eat steak
Let 'em eat shit, let 'em eat cake
You gotta get a grip
You gotta get a grip
You gotta keep it zipped
And shoot 'em from the hip
Yeah, yeah, you gotta get a grip
Beat it with a stick

I tried diversion and I tried coercion
Mediation and medication
LA culture and aquapuncture
Overeating and sex in meetings
Induced insanity, Christianity
Long walks and fast drives
And wild clubs and low dives
I pushed and I strived
But I can't get you, can't get you
Can't get you out of my mind
Gotta get a grip

Oh you, oh you
Oh you, beat it with a stick
Immigrants are pouring in
Refugees under your skin
Keep 'em under, keep 'em out
Intellectual, shut your mouth
Beat 'em with a stick
Oh you
Gotta get a grip
Gotta get a grip
Chaos crisis instability, ISIS
Lies and scandals, wars and vandals
Metadata scams and policy shams
Put 'em in a slammer
Gotta get a grip
Gotta get a grip
Come on

Strange Game lyrics - Mick Jagger

(from "Slow Horses" soundtrack)

Surrounded by losers
Misfits and boozers
Hanging by your fingernails
You made one mistake
You got burned at the stake
You're finished, you're foolish, you failed
There's always a hope
On this slippery slope
Somewhere a ghost of a chance
To get back in that game
And burn off your shame
And dance with the big boys again

It's a strange, strange game
Strange, strange game
Such a shame - shame, shame
Yes a strange game
You got to carry the blame
In this strange game
You're out on a limb
And you're trying to get in
It's a strange game

You piled up the corpses
And exhausted your sources
Lying right under a cloud
The odds are against you
The gods haven't blessed you
You better get back on the rails
Drill down on the data
Keep pushing the paper
The damps dripping down on the walls
It's a million to one
There's a place in the sun
To dance with the big boys again

It's a strange, strange game
Strange, oh so strange
You don't even know my real name
Yes a strange game
You got to carry the blame
In this strange strange game
You're out on a limb
And you're trying to get in
It's a strange game

Catch As Catch Can lyrics - Mick Jagger

You think that you know me
But look in my eyes
Looks like your lover
Is drunk every night

You won't recognize me
Please take your time
Down on my luck, girl
Out of time

Catch as catch can [x2]
You walk like a lamb
I'm leaving you

You won't recognize me
Just look in my face
I've been a sinner
I've been a disgrace

Darling you don't know me
Just look in my eyes
I've been out on the town, girl
I've been out on the ties

Catch as catch can - go ahead
You walk like a lamb - stand on your own two feet
You don't understand, you don't understand
Gun in your hand
I'm leaving you

Not a little girl now

You think that you know me
But look in my eyes
Looks like your lover
Is drunk every night

You won't recognize me
Just look in my face
Looks like your boyfriend
Is a disgrace

You don't know me, you don't know me
Just look in my eyes
I've been out on the town, girl
Yes I have, I've been out, I've been out every night

Catch as catch can
Walk like a man
Come on little baby
Give my lover every [?] that you can

Catch as catch can - that's what I said
Catch as catch can - come on girl
You walk like a man - I can't understand this
I'm leaving you

That's what I do

Hey
