Boy George Stand Down Lyrics

Stand down, yeah
Stand down, yeah...

Friends and lovers beware, cause there's something in the air
I feel it coming, I feel it coming
And I'm talking to you all, cause when that hammer starts to fall
There'll be no running, there'll be no running

But my people and your people must do the things they do, yeah
And my people are such sweet people, don't worry baby, won't get those hooks on
you

Stand down, don't let them know your secret
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
Stand down, don't let them know your secret
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
Stand down, oh yeah
Stand down, yeah

It is written in the sky, there's no place for you and I
To keep on strumming, no strumming
In the message that we send, they're gonna tell us in the end
That we had it coming, we had it coming

But my people and your people must do the things they do, yeah And my people are such sweet people, don't worry baby, won't get those hooks on you

Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
Stand down, if you want if you wanna live your life
If all the things that we possess
The most important is tenderness
Too cold when that wind blows today
And bitterness is the easy way

Stand down...

But my people and your people must do the things they do, yeah
And my people are such sweet people, don't worry baby, won't get those hooks on
you

Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
Stand down, don't let them know your secret
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
Stand down
