THE BEAT
"Sugar & Stress"
(Andy Cox / Everett Morton / Ranking Roger / Saxa / David Steel / Dave Wakeling / David Wright)

This world is upside down
The right's and wrong's don't get much wronger.
Mistakes found in the past
Turn into rules protecting power.
It's falling down
It weighs a lot
So you should not depend on it.
This world is upside down
But look I can't hang on for much longer.

Sugar 'n' stress,
Do everything at least twice
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar 'n' stress
With a heart like ice
Hope heaven comes in a number of size.

These thought are so unfair
"If somethings there then it's worth taking."
We know where our hearts are-right behind our wallets,
Yes and that's where they're staying
Grow up together but we grow apart
Always climbing up is our downfall.
A change of blood or a change of heart?
Another change of address will do no good.

Sugar 'n' stress,
Do everything at least twice
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar 'n' stress
With a heart like ice
Hope heaven comes in a number of size.

This world is upside down
This world is upside down
This world is upside down
But look I can't hang on for much longer.
