Public Image Ltd. – The Body lyrics
(Allan Dias/Duane Edmonds/John Lydon/John Mcgeoch/Bruce Smith)
When you run about-without precautions
You get dieseases-need abortions
And up till now-no vaccination
Can give you back your reputation
Chorus
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
We want-we want your body
Cahty go home-without your daughter
In a welfare state-she'll be well looked after
And it's easy now-this other person
Is off your back-Not a burden
Chorus
Body!
When you run about-without precautions
You'll get diseases-need abortions
And up till now-no vaccination
Can give you back your reputation
Chorus
Your body!
