LYRICS
I remember
You had nothing my dear
Every meal you ate was served inside a can
And I remember
You knew something called love
And we hitched along the roadside in the rain
And now I gotta say
I know more of you that way
Every inch of you's a star
Now a chauffer drives your car
But there ain't a lot of love in paradise
There ain't too many good things left in your life
I remember
All your crazy ideas
And the help you sought to realise your dreams
I remember
Your material smiles
For the people who had trusted and believed
And now I gotta say
I know more of you that way
Playing with the life
You rolled it like a dice
But there ain't a lot of love in paradise
There ain't too many good things left in your life
But there ain't a lot of love
Remember
Baby, baby
Why must you be so obscene?
Baby, baby
You're falling apart at the seams
There ain't a lot of love in paradise
There ain't too many good things left in your life
Too many good things (There ain't a lot of love)
Of love (in paradise)
Too many good things (There ain't too many good things)
Left in your life
Remember

I'm going to see them at the Mordialloc Festival in three days time. I can't believe they're not the headline act.

Hehe. I just "remembered" a funny story that happened to me with this song...
Back in the 90's around the time this song came out, I was walking down to the milk bar along Mahoney's Road, Thomastown on my lunch break. About 20 metres ahead of me on the footpath was this cat who, from behind, reminded me of this song's singer; and before I could think I blurted out "I remember" at a volume that had the fella whipping around to see. It was HIM!!!!
I was shocked and somewhat embarrassed, and I bet he thought he had a stalker on his hands... and we still had some distance to walk (uncomfortably) until I could peel off to the shop. :D
Anyhoops - great song and I hope he knew I was just a fan at the time.

They were fine but just stifled and they tapered right off.

[@jamesleftwich2927]

The song was written about Madonna....

[@aprilsky8474]

Only the stories about Madonna having nothing were false.

Has to be cap
