Listen up
This is confession
This machine motion is sure to break my heart

Listen up
This is confession
Recorded music sticks in the throat of God

I O U, you don't own me
I O U, you don't own me
Party time, one mor night, everybody's affected

Listen up
This is confession
You are a poison that flows into my veins

Listen up
This is confession
I've never been so scared of letting you down

You know me, so come closer
You know me, so come closer
Party time, one more town, everybody's affected

I know you, you don't need me
I know you, you don't need me
Party time, one more girl, everybody's affected

Listen up
This is confession
They tell me heaven just has to be somewhere

Listen up
This is confession
I'd lie to God if I could make him believe

You owe me, and I need you
You owe me, and I need you
Party time, one more game, everybody's affected

This is my confession
This is my confession
Party time, one more lie, everybody's affected

Gary Numan

Gary Anthony James Webb (born 8 March 1958), known professionally as Gary Numan, is an English singer, songwriter, composer, musician and record producer.

Born in Hammersmith, West London, he first entered the music industry as lead singer of the new wave band Tubeway Army. After releasing two albums with the band, Numan released his debut solo album The Pleasure Principle in 1979.

With number-one singles “Are ‘Friends’ Electric?” and “Cars”, Numan achieved his peak of mainstream popularity in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but maintains a cult following.
