[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
My little girl, won't you come with me?
Come with me
And tell me
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
I'm going crazy with boredom
Come with me
And tell me
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 3: Dave Gahan]
Grey sky over a black town
I can feel depression all around
You've got your leather boots on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Interlude]
[Verse 4: Dave Gahan]
I can't stand another drink
It's surprising this town doesn't sink
You've got your leather boots on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 5: Dave Gahan]
Your pretty dress is oil stained
From working too hard for too little
You've got your leather boots on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Interlude]
[Verse 6]
You're feeling the boredom too
I'd gladly go with you
I'd put your leather boots on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 7: Dave Gahan]
I'd put your pretty dress on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
(Is there something to do?)
(Is there something to do?)
(Is there something to do?)
(Is there something to do?)
My little girl, won't you come with me?
Come with me
And tell me
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
I'm going crazy with boredom
Come with me
And tell me
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
[Verse 3: Dave Gahan]
Grey sky over a black town
I can feel depression all around
You've got your leather boots on
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
