Precious Box Lyrics by George Michael

Precious Box Lyrics

    In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
    From the stars to my home, down through the stone,
    I could have been so alone,
    Without my precious box
    Have I a family? I guess not
    I've never seen a lot of beauty
    In my life.

    Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
    Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone, they never
    leave you alone
    The party never stops!
    You say that's fantasy, I say “So what, I need a little beauty…”

    So let me in,
    You know you've kind of got under my skin
    You know we never see a lot of the action round here
    My dear
    You may want to strip again

    And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
    And you're making more money than your daddy
    could have imagined
    But people can go out of fashion, honey, yeah, any time

    So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
    Don't you know that the moment will come
    I will find someone like you
    But with something extra, I'm sorry baby
    I don't know why
    I don't know why that is

    The systematic breakdown of my community
    You know I hate my job, I try to save but God
    There's just never enough
    Switch on, the pressure - stops
    You know the one for me, she's on Fox
    And she's a little beauty…

    Give me your life, give me your life, I want it
    Because lately, it's so freezing out here
    (This side of the glass, life keeps kicking my ass)
    In so many ways, but you make it good
    Made me the kind of happy that my baby never could
    (This side of the glass…)

    So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
    Don't you know that the moment will come
    I will find someone like you
    But with something extra, I'm so sorry baby
    I don't know why
    I don't know why that is

    Precious keeps me company
    Keeps me from being alone

    Because no-one comes in the morning
    No-one comes in the evening time
    I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
    I could be waiting my whole damn life

    So sick of the same old faces
    In this street, where nobody talks to me
    And the funny side of the situation is
    I don't care, I'll always be there

    When you come down from the sky
    And make yourself at home
    In my house

    Because these days it's the money the money
    The money, honey, or your life
    I said don't you know you can't have both

    Stop acting so dumb
    The moment will come
    I will find someone like you
    Something extra, (always happens baby to me) sorry baby
    I don't know why (something)
    Said I don't know why that is

    You may want to strip again
    You may want to let me in
    You may want to sacrifice
    More than you think is fair or right

    You may want to think again
    You may want to watch your friends
    You may want to change your mind
    You may wish you could turn back time.
