Doing The Best For You - Kinks

You can blame it on the government, The unions, They use you all you life, You can take system and make believe It will be alright, They’ve taken the spirit of your life, And given you a machine. No wonder you feel so hard done by Chorus They’re doing the best for you, Well that’s […]

Do You Wish To Be A Man? - Kinks

Creepin’ Jean - Kinks

You’re not leaving so descreet, Just creeping out on me. Your dizzy head, and smoky eyes, You’ll find some other’s bed to sleep. So don’t look back, it is too late, No story to be told. This creepin’ mess you left for me, Promising that you’d be home. You don’t know what i mean, Creepin’ […]
