Mr Reed

Eurythmics


Oh Mr Reed, do you mind I didn't notice 
I could see, that you had both feet, not quite on the ground 
Oh Mr Reed, do you think I didn't see you 
Crying in the foyer, after midnight, by the telephone booth 

Men, trapped in their own web 
Men, with power but no friends 
Men, who make demands with the future in their hands 
Are fragile, I know know 
Oh Mr Reed, why did you start to look away 
I was asking a very important question, about your life 
Oh Mr Reed, you know I'm trying to explain, that there's 
Something, about you, I quite like 
Men trapped in their own web 
Men with power but no friends 
Men locked in their own head 
Men so easily lead 
Oh Mr Reed... (instrumental) 
Oh Mr Reed, I'm trying to explain, that there's 
Something about you I quite like 
Men, never know 
Men, their egos show 
Men, just can't let go 
Men, and the seed they sow
