Wrote this in 1996.
For a girl who threatened her boyfriend (my pal) with a knife.
They are now happily married. With kids, etc.
"Hushabye, baby, don't you cry
Man must live and a man must die.
Man must be bravc man must be strong
And man be punished when he's done wrong
Hushabye baby don't you see,
There's a place for you and me.
Where I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And making love is the grand design.
You made love. You made love.
You made love. You made love to me.
Every little boy, every full grown man
Only ever had eyes for my best friend.
And though I know you saw her first,
You came to me when the bubble burst
You made love. You made love.
You made love. You made love to me.
While the cat was away did you think to play?
Did you save me up for a rainy day?
Was I just some bit of fun?
Another notch upon your gun?
And wham, bam, no thank you ma'am,
If I want a little more than a one night stand?
Oh, cheap away day, make pretends?
Video camera, show your friends?
Well you never saw the final cut,
The body in the bed is staying put!
You made love. You made love.
You made love. You made love to me.
Man be warrior, man be king
And womankind be his plaything
But now you'll never leave my bed
Because of the one fairy tale you had not read!
You made love. You made love.
You made love. You made love to me."
