Exiled

Mas quem é que mata quem nas intrincadas coreografias de Johnnie To?
Who cares?

Gloria

Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine
Meltin' in a pot of thieves
Wild card up my sleeve
Thick heart of stone
My sins my own
They belong to me, me

People say "beware!"
But I don't care
The words are just
Rules and regulations to me, me

I-I walk in a room, you know I look so proud
I'm movin' in this here atmosphere, well, anything's allowed
And I go to this here party and I just get bored
Until I look out the window, see a sweet young thing
Humpin' on the parking meter, leanin' on the parking meter
Oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine
And I got this crazy feeling and then
I'm gonna ah-ah make her mine
Ooh i'll put my spell on her

Here she comes
Walkin' down the street
Here she comes
Comin' through my door
Here she comes
Crawlin' up my stair
Here she comes
Waltzin' through the hall
In a pretty red dress
And oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine
And I got this crazy feeling that I'm gonna ah-ah make her mine

Au Pairs

Playing with a Different Sex (1981)

e, já agora

Repetition

Johnny is a man
And he’s bigger than you
But his overheads are high
And he looks straight through you when you ask him how the kids are

He’ll get home around 7
Cause the car is real old
And he could have a Cadillac
If the school had taught him right

And he could have married Anne in a blue silk blouse

And the food is on the table
But the food is cold
(Don’t hit her)
Oh can’t you even cook
What’s the good of him working if you can’t damn cook?

Well Johnny is a man
And he’s bigger than her
I guess the bruises won’t show
If she wears long sleeves
But the space in her eyes shows through
It shows through

Could have married Anne in a blue silk blouse
It shows through
