Culture Club

Songwriter: Boy George Jon Moss Michael Craig Richie Stevens Roy Hay

I am a poet in New York City
You can see your face in my shoes
I'm young and I'm alive
I've got nothin' to lose
A dream, a book, a lie, a kiss
There's so much to resist
And then I ﬁnd you

I am fire, you are water
And nothing we can do
I'll walk into the room and light your fuse, yeah

Love is a revolution
War and famine too
Feed the hunger in your heart
Let somebody love you
Let somebody love you

Now I'm in the wilderness
Somewhere in the heart of Spain
You ﬂight it up with a smile, said, "Sing it again"
A dream, a book, a lie, a kiss
There's so much to resist
And then I ﬁnd you

I am fire, you are water
And nothing we can do
I'll walk into the room and light your fuse, yeah

Love is a revolution
War and famine too
Feed the hunger in your heart
Let somebody love you
Let somebody love you

Live on the record, a boy or a girl in your head
Could it be something I did?
Or somethin' you said?
Live on the record, a boy or a girl in your head, yeah
When the two seven's come together
I'm gonna love you forever and ever

I am fire, you are water
And nothing we can do
I'll walk into the room and light your fuse, yeah

Love is a revolution
War and famine too
Feed the hunger in your heart
Let somebody love you
Gotta let somebody love you
(Let somebody love you)

A dream, a lie
A book or a kiss (Let somebody love you)
So much to resist, yeah, (Let somebody love you)
Gotta let someone love you (Let somebody love you)
Need to let somebody love you (Let somebody love you)

Culture Club is a New Wave / Pop Band from London England who are known for a string of pop hits during the 1980s. Their second album, Colour By Numbers, sold more than 10 million albums, was ranked the 96th best album of the 1980s by Rolling Stone, and contained their most famous song Karma Chameleon.

Formed in 1981 by lead singer Boy George, bassist Mikey Craig, drummer Jon Moss and guitarist Roy Hay, Culture Club was named after the diversity in ethnicity and backgrounds of it’s members. They were soon after signed to Virgin records, but it wouldn’t be until the press realized Boy George’s androgynous style, before Culture Club would take off as pop hit masters.

Culture Club sold more than 50 million albums worldwide, and had international success with songs such as “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?”, “Time (Clock of the Heart)” and “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya”.
