Tom Tom Club – On The Line Again[close To The Bone] lyrics

TENTATIVE* TRANSCRIPTION ONLY Can! : YOU help to complete it Living?

close to the bone close, to the bone Living
close to the bone close, to the bone Dark

sneak love action on a Friday night We're
going to put on the dog we're, going to do it up right Better
put me in a cage I'm, feeling good and full of fight You
better take my picture quick I'm, going to jump out of sight Why

that's a cool million wow, taking, in the view Life
is but a dream not, about what you do With
your blow and your juice and now you're drinking alone If
you don't know it I can tell you When
you're close to the bone You're

on the line again Now
I can place your face Brain
food down the drain I, recognise the place You're
on the line again You're
far away from home You're
wearing the signs that say you're close to the bone Living

close to the bone close, to the bone You

try to gain a toe-hold you, dig in your heels Make
believe you never worry how to pay for your meals Edges
are eroding there's, a cancer in my head My
magnetism's fading can't, get out of the red I

see you sitting there in your electric blue suit Shady
money men no longer think you are cute You
pass the kids in the park and look how they've grown Feel
your face in the dark feel, it close to the bone You're

on the line again and, it's not nice to hurt Put
a lot of love into your life and put that love to work You're
on the line again perhaps, you could meet someone Who'd
show you how to have it all have, fun close to the bone Living

close to the bone close, to the bone Glass

partitions in your thinking cap shatter Canned
music thickened gathered ??? Hair
line fracture visible to anyone Getting
wider by the hour living, close to the bone Living

close to the bone close, to the bone Living
close to the bone close, to the bone Living

close to the bone close, to the bone Animate

your backside You'll
be my inspitation To
the left and to the right Funk
is our salivation
