Precious Box Lyrics


In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
From the stars to my home, down through the stone
I could have been so alone without my precious box
Have I a family, I guess not? I've never seen a lot of beauty in my life
Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone
They never leave you alone the party never stops
You say that's fantasy, I say "So what, I need a little beauty"
So let me in
You know you've kind of got under my skin
You know we never see a lot of the action 'round here
My dear, you may want to strip again
And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
And you're makin' more money than your daddy
Could have imagined
But people can go out of fashion, honey, yeah, any time
Take that picture, stop actin' so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come

I will find someone like you
But somethin' with extra, I'm sorry baby
I don't know why?
Said, "I don't know why that is?"
The systematic breakdown of my community
You know I hate my job, I try to save but God
There's just never enough
Switch on, the pressure stops
You know the one for me, she's on fox
And she's a little beauty
Give me your life, give me your life, I want it
Because lately, it's so freezing out here
(This side of the glass, life keeps kickin' my ass)
In so many ways but you make it good
Made me the kind of happy that my baby never could
(This side of the glass)
I know that you would now baby
Take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
Somethin' with extra, I'm so sorry baby
I don't know why?
Said, "I don't know why that is?"
Precious keeps me company on
Keeps me from bein' alone
Because no-one comes in the morning
No-one comes in the evenin' time
I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
I could be waiting my whole damn life
So sick of the same old faces
In this street, where nobody talks to me
And the funny side of the situation is
I don't care, I'll always be there
When you come down from the sky
And make yourself at home
In my house baby
'Cause these days it's the money the money
The money, honey, or your life
I said,"Don't you know you can't have both"
I said,"Don't you know you can't have both"
I said,"Don't you know you can't have both"
Stop acting so dumb
The moment will come
I will find someone like you
Somethin' with extra, sorry baby
(Always happens baby to me)
I don't know why?
(Something)
Said, "I don't know why that is?"
You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right
You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time
You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right
You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time
You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right
You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
You may wish you could turn back time

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
George Michael (born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou on June 25, 1963 in East Finchley, London, England) is an English pop musician of English/Greek Cypriot ancestry. Michael began his career by forming a band called The Executive together with his best friend Andrew Ridgeley, a fellow pupil at Bushey Meads School, though it did not survive for long.

It wasn't until he formed the duo Wham! together again with Ridgeley in 1981 that the success came for the band. Their first album, Fantastic!, was an instant success, and within a year they had released their classic debut single, Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do), while their second single, Young Guns (Go For It), became the first in a string of Top 10 hits in the UK singles chart. They were rapidly followed by titles such as Bad Boys, Club Tropicana, Wake Me Up Before You Go Go, Freedom, Last Christmas/Everything She Wants, I'm Your Man and a second album, Make It Big. George also sang on the original Band Aid recording of Do They Know It's Christmas and donated the profits from Last Christmas/Everything She Wants to the charity.

With the success of his solo releases Careless Whisper (1984) and A Different Corner (1986) stories of an impending Wham! split intensified, and Wham! duly separated in the summer of 1986 after a farewell single, The Edge Of Heaven and album, plus a sell-out concert at Wembley Stadium.

Some of his biggest hit singles as a solo artist include the single "Faith" (taken from his debut album Faith that not only became number one on both sides of the Atlantic but also resulted in stunning four number one singles in America) and many more.

"Careless Whisper" (written when he was seventeen) became one of the most played songs of the decade and voted Londoner's Favourite record of all time in January 1995 in a competition run jointly by the capital's leading evening newspaper and radio station. He was then also voted Best Male Singer by the same radio station and by the readers of a national newspaper. Some of his other hits include "Father Figure", "One More Try", "Freedom 90", "Fastlove", "Jesus To a Child", "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" (a duet with Elton John), 2002's "Freeek!" and "Shoot the Dog".

Songfacts reports that "White Light" was made available to download on August 12, 2012, 30 years after George first entered the UK singles chart with “Young Guns (Go For It!).” He described the track as a "thank you to everybody who has been a part of [his] success", adding: "I mean everybody, including the press!! Long may it continue."
