THE FIXX
"All Is Fair"
(Dan K. Brown / Cy Curnin / Peter Greenall / Jamie West-Oram / Adam Terence Woods)

Man as a beast
Came down from the trees
Crawling around
Spread his disease
Was up on the rocks
Playing with fire
Inventing his needs
To quench the desire

Blood on his hands
Love on his mind
Hell as a future
Leaving Heaven way behind

[Chorus:]
All is fair in love and war (na)
Kiss me you fool it's love that we're all dying for
All is fair in love and war (na)
Head for the hills, who knows what all this fighting's for?
Man is a beast

Shame at the feast
Too much to eat
Throw out the waste
At the beggar's bare feet
Aim for the Moon
Shooting the stars
Insanity roaming the streets
But the sane drive new cars

Blood on his hands
Love on his mind
Selling the future
The debts are left behind

[Chorus]

A-oo

Up in the the alter zone
Man is a beast
Down in his structured home
Still man is a beast
Up on the rocks
Playing with fire
Inventing his needs
Oh, quench his desires

All is fair in love and war
Kiss me you fool it's love that we're all dying for
All is fair in love and war (na)
Time and patience always find the open door

[Chorus]

Wo-ho, man is a beast
Man is a beast
