Play for Today (Seventeen Seconds demos 1979) Songtext
von The Cure

It′s not a case of doing what's right
It′s just the way I feel that matters
Tell me I'm wrong, I don't really care

It′s not a case of share and share alike
I take what I require
I don′t understand, you say it's not fair


You expect me to act like a lover
Consider my moves and deserve the reward
To hold you in my arms and wait
And wait... and wait for something to happen

It′s not a case of telling the truth
Some lines just fit the situation
You call me a liar, you would anyway

It's not a case of aiming to please
You know you′re always crying
It's just your part in the play for today
