Sense of Purpose - Pretenders

Sense of Purpose Lyrics

Everybody chokes when they see someone cut down in their prime
It may not show when you look at me but I know Im in mine
Im potent, baby, Im potent, dangerous to the naked eye
Rest your head on this bed of mothers pride and find out whyDont you wanna take me home?
Dont you wanna take me home?Give me a sense of purpose
A real sense of purpose now
Give me a sense of purpose
A real sense of purpose nowBully boys dont bother me, I purse my lips and they run away
Guys like you who are gentle and true
Dont come around here everyday
Im potent, baby, Im potent, Just one swing of me
Would get most guys smashed
But a drop of yours makes me stagger and swerve
I guess, Im outclassedEverybody chokes when they see someone cut down in their prime
Take this plea to your heart, lift me in mineOne, two, three, fourDont you wanna take me home?
Dont you wanna take me home?Baby, give me a sense of purpose
A real sense of purpose now
Give me a sense of purpose

A real sense of purpose nowGive me a sense of purpose
A real sense of purpose now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Give me a sense of purpose
A real sense of purpose nowLet's get out on here now, let's go
