Icing
On The Cake (

(Icing on the

(Party on the
street)
(Love you cannot
fake)
(Truth you
cannot cheat)
(Cheat)
Baby let me make
you a statue
To stand outside
the council house
To stand as a reminder
of what you are
And what you
want to be
I want to live
with you
Want to sleep
with you
In a house
In a peaceful
world
They want to
take you
They want to
break you
Don't let them
make you unhappy
You are the
icing on the cake
The party on the
street
The love you
cannot fake
The truth you
cannot cheat
Cheat
You were left on
the doorstep
Of the Social
Security
You were hoping
for a future
As someone not
just a leisure refugee
I always saw you
as a fighter and a winner
Not content to only
write your name
Their right way
is the wrong way
For what you are
and what you were born to be
Born to be young
and free
To be young and
wise
Not to listen to
all their lies
Don't let them
take you
Don't let them
break you
Don't let them
make you unhappy
You are the
icing on the cake
The party on the
street
The love you
cannot fake
The truth you
cannot cheat
Cheat
Cheat
What’s wrong
with that -> See 03:50 version
It’s the icing
(Icing on the
cake)
Party
(Party on the
street)
Is it love
(Love you cannot
fake)
It’s the truth
(Truth you
cannot cheat)
The icing
(Icing on the
cake)
(Party on the
street)
Is it love
(Love you cannot
fake)
Or the truth
(Truth you
cannot cheat)
Here we come
waltzing home
By the moon so
bright
By the sea by
the harbour wall
They want to
take you
They want to
break you
Shape you and
make you unhappy
You are the
icing on the cake
The party on the
street
The love you
cannot fake
The truth you
cannot cheat
(Icing on the
cake)
(Party on the
street)
(Love you cannot
fake)
(Truth you
cannot cheat)
The icing on the
cake
The party on the
street
The love you
cannot fake
The truth you
cannot cheat
The icing on the
cake
The party on the
street
The love you
cannot fake
The truth you
cannot cheat
