Please Be Cruel Lyrics - Inspiral Carpets

Judas's friends have got so strong 

It's through the way they made you carry someone else's wrong 

I've seen the way he ties you down 

To blind man's bluff in a bridal gown 

So you beat him at his games 

So he had to change the rules 

Please be cruel 

Every word that's spoken's ringing in your ears 

This light we look upon has gone and passed a thousand years 

He says you're mutton dressed as lamb 

But he's a vegetarian 

So you live to fight another day 

But you get weaker every way 

Please be cruel 

'Cause you're a woman who needs persuading 

Never needed anybody 

To affect this change your life so badly needs 

Judas's friends have got so strong 

It's through the way they made you carry someone else's wrong 

I've seen the way he ties you down 

To blind man's bluff in a bridal gown 

So you beat him at his games 

So he had to change the rules 

Oh, please be cruel 

Oh, please be cruel 

Oh, please be cruel 

Don't know if I should 

Please be cruel 

Please be cruel 

Please be cruel
