The Boomtown Rats Sweet Thing Lyrics

Sweet thing
You make my gums bleed
You're my pretty thing
Because I love you

I'm gonna love you on Monday you're the start of my week
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, man, we're hitting a peak
But I love you best on Friday 'cause you're my weekend freak

My little sweet thing
Whoa, whoa, whoa
You're my pretty thing
Because I love you

They're beaming hope out, baby, on the local airwaves
So tune into the one that offers hope and can save you
I love you in the morning when I wake and you're shaving

Oh my sweet thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh you're my pretty thing
Whoa, whoa, whoa

We're going to keep on driving 'til the end of the night
It's hopeless but I'm helpless in the beam of your light
So there's a rumour you're a tumour on my lovestick, alright

My little sweet thing
Whoa, whoa, whoa

I'm gonna call the cops up 'cause it just isn't right
The world looks so much better when I've got you in my sights
Tear up all the old plans and let's lighten those lights

My little... Oh sweet thing
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Oh my little pretty thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're sweet thing
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Oh my little pretty thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah
...
