Big Dark Man (Waiting)
Boy George · Other Songs - Boy George
Was a double handed glove
But we need it al the time
Alice she's got mark
Warren's in the dark
Because his body's superfly
Me I'm just a sucker
Waiting for a lover
Someone with a wicked smile
What's a boy to do
What's a girl to do
What's the point to underline
Waiting for a big dark man
She's waiting for a big
Dark man
Someone said that sex
Was a physical contest
But I don't believe a word
They say love is cool
Then they must be fools
Because of all the things
I've heard
Someone said that hippie
Was a little trippy
But he is a friend of mine
Jeremy he throws
But he might overdose
If he finds a girl tonite
