Lyrics

"Please be careful" is never careful 'Til it hears the gun She will always pay the bills For the having big fun He talks so well (he talks so well) Can you do? It's pretty plain (pretty plain) He means it too I don't want to sell you lines I only mean to do you right But I'm a simple slave of appetite I'm a poor slave of appetite Hunger howls (hunger howls) Hungers red Hungers stays (hungers stays) 'Til it's fed Then it some ha-ha-how fades Then it somehow leaves your sight Depending on it's appetite Depending on your appetite So if you take, then put back good If you steal be Robin Hood If your eyes are wanting all you see Then I think I'll name you after me So if you take, then put back good If you steal, be Robin Hood If your eyes are wanting all you see Then I think I'll name you after me I think I'll call you appetite Here she is with two small problems And the best part of the blame Wishing she could call him heartache But it's not a boy's name If you grow (if you) up to be just like him (just like) Just like me You're fighting for exclusive rights For honeymoons, each sleepless night In which case I'll call you appetite Yes, I think I'll call you appetite So if you take, then put back good If you steal, be Robin Hood If your eyes are wanting all you see Then I think I'll name you after me I think I'll call you appetite So if you take, then put back good If you steal, be Robin Hood If your eyes are wanting all you see Then I think I'll name you after me I think I'll call you appetite Then I think I'll name you after me Yes, I think I'll call you appetite
