Had You In Me Lyrics


Neneh Cherry Had You In Me


[Note: it begins with Tricky speaking in the background to someone in the studio.]

(i shoulda been a women. i don't understand why im a man)

[Tricky & Neneh: singing]

had you in me [x4]
in me [x2]
sick of what i feel, sick of being real
Better stay clear or I might hijack a plane
im getting sick of what i feel, sick of being real
you better stay clear cos im about to blow the f..ck up

[Neneh:]

soap on my body's gonna make me clean,
giving birth makes me scream,
see my light (life?) pass before me as i drown in the shadow under
my

bubble bath,
a forced laugh a forged autograph,
first my body,
now my corpse
i exercise daily...love my sports
i need when i concieve,
i sow seed, i can see no remourse,

[Tricky & Neneh: x2]

i had you in me
had you in me
you in me
in me
me
sick of what i feel
sick of being real
Better stay clear or I might hijack a plane
im getiing sick of what i feel
sick of being real
you better stay clear cos im about to blow the f..ck up

[Tricky:]

im liquid

[Neneh:]

serving speed, self deceit,
i teased you now youre tame,
put treacle on your tummy to keep you sticky when i steal,
i take from you i hate for you
you fools who feel free (?)
you look like a little somebody looking for something

[Tricky:]

and im still myself [to fade]
