ROBERT PALMER

- Looking For Clues Lyrics

It's crazy but I'm frightened
By the sound of the telephone, oh yeah
I'm worried that the caller
Might have awful news, oh my

Who knows these days
Where on earth the money goes, oh yeah
No doubt we could put it
To a better use, oh my

You keep insisting that nobody showed you
How to keep relationships, oh yeah
Your daddy made
A real good try, oh my

You said you knew all along
We could work it out, oh yeah
Do you have to make a fuss everytime we fly
Oh, I'm looking for clues

I have to make an effort now
I just to be serious, oh yeah
Nobodys gonna give you
The benefit of the doubt, oh my

Everytime I pick a paper up
It's harder to believe the news, oh yeah
I'm gonna have to shake it up
And twist and shout, oh my

You can't do nothing
That you don't put your mind to, oh yeah
I suspected all along
You were a dream come true, oh my
I'm never in the dark
'Cause my heart keeps me well informed, oh yeah
I'm convinced that there's a way
Of getting through to you
Ooh, I'm looking for clues

It's crazy but I'm frightened
By the sound of relationships, oh yeah
I swear we could
Put it to a better use, oh my

Do hurry baby, you've forgotten
How to catch a night groove, oh yeah
You told all the callers you were not amused
Ooh, I'm looking for clues

You keep insisting that nobody showed you
How to use a telephone, oh yeah
Nobody's gonna give you
A second chance, oh my

I don't have to make an effort now
To find out where the money goes, oh yeah
Do you have to make a fuss everytime we dance
Ooh, I'm looking for clues

Ooh, I'm looking for clues
Ooh, I'm looking for clues
Ooh, I'm looking for clues
