Give Me a Reason Songtext
von Madness

Well, we change from one extreme to another
Can you help me with my shame?
I didn′t mean to when I kicked and punched
From nowhere this demon came

Forgive me for this mindless mood
Accept this honest plea
Don't use me for the devil′s food
And throw away the key

Give me a reason, so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason, so I've got
Something else to blame

I only meant to wipe away the cries
With the softness of my hand
I didn′t mean to break the tie
I′m after all a family man


Give me a reason, so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason, so I′ve got
Something else to blame

Give me the reason
Give me a reason

I am the master of this house
Don't try to run away
I tried the same things at your age
And I was also made to pay

Forgive me for this mindless mood
Accept this honest plea
Don′t use me for the devil's food
Throw away the key

Mister patience and Misses alike
Upon and throughout the land
A lot of attention
With a heap of affection
Wouldn′t go astray

Give me a reason, so I've got
Someone else to blame
Give me the reason, so I've got
Something else to blame


This is the reason, one of the reasons
I am the reason, so I′ve got only myself to blame
I am the reason, so I′ve got no one else to blame

This is the reason, one of the reasons
I am the reason, so I've got only myself to blame
I am the reason, so I′ve got no one else to blame
