Blue Monday ’88 (12" Version) Lyrics
[Intro]
Haha-haha-ha-ha
Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire
Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire
[Verse 1]
How does it feel
To treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how do I feel?
Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They'll turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today
[Verse 2]
I see a ship in the harbour
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortune
I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how should I feel?
Now I stand here waiting
Haha-haha-ha-ha
Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire
Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire
[Verse 1]
How does it feel
To treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how do I feel?
Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They'll turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today
[Verse 2]
I see a ship in the harbour
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortune
I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how should I feel?
Now I stand here waiting
[Bridge]
(Fire, fire)
Now I stand here waiting
(Fire, fire, fire, geisha, geisha)
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire)
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire)
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, geisha, geisha)
[Verse 3]
Thought I told you to leave me
When I walked down to the beach
Tell me, how does it feel
When your heart grows cold?
[Outro]
(Fire, fire, fire, fire, fire)
(Fire, fire)
Now I stand here waiting
(Fire, fire, fire, geisha, geisha)
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
What is this, too much?
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire)
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, fire)
(Geisha, geisha, geisha, geisha, geisha)
[Verse 3]
Thought I told you to leave me
When I walked down to the beach
Tell me, how does it feel
When your heart grows cold?
[Outro]
(Fire, fire, fire, fire, fire)
