Maxine (Live) Lyrics by When The Cat’s Away & Sharon O’Neill

Live in Paradise

0

Creases in your white dress
Bruises on your bare skin
Looks like another fine mess
You've got yourself into
What's the matter with you?
Has the cat got your tongue?
Well if you don't like the beat
Then don't play with the drum
Maxine, you're not the only one
To take the whole world on
No one's ever won
Maxine, case 1-3-5-2
A red and green tattoo
Eyes cold steel blue
On a rain-slicked avenue
Long shadows in the night
Take off your spikе-heeled shoes
You've got to run for your lifе
Razor blade in your pocket
From an ex-marine
Makes you speed like a rocket
Ooh it cuts so clean
Maxine, you're not the only one
To take the whole world on
No one's ever won
Maxine, case 1-3-5-2
A red and green tattoo
Eyes cold steel blue
How come you're paying for borrowed time
Staring out into space?
Bad boys and cold comfort
And a smacked-up face
Maxine, you're not the only one
To take the whole world on
No one's ever won
Maxine, case 1-3-5-2
A red and green tattoo
Eyes cold steel blue
Who's that walking, walking behind you?
Who's that talking, talking about you?
Who's that walking, walking with you, Maxine?
Who's that walking, walking behind you?
Who's that talking, talking about you?
Who's that walking, walking with you, Maxine?
