Anna Calvi - Chain Lyrics

She asked me
Are you lonely
And she took me
To the back seat
And she told me
She told me don't breathe

I’ll be the boy you be the girl I’ll be the girl you be the boy I’ll be the girl (wonderful feeling)
I’ll be the boy you be the girl I’ll be the girl you be the boy I’ll be the boy (wonderful feeling)

Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me
Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me

I’ll be the boy you be the boy until I see a broken mirror in the sun

I’ll be the boy you be the girl I’ll be the girl you be the boy I’ll be the girl (come up to feel it)
And in the golden light the sun began to set on her red lips and her words

Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me
Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me
Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me
Ch-ch chain me, ch-ch chain me

She asked me
Do you feel free
And she told me
She told me don’t breathe

Ahh

I’ll be the boy you be the girl I’ll be the girl you be the boy I’ll be the boy (wonderful feeling)
And in the golden light the sun began to set on her red lips and her words

Love this song ,have to stop what I’m doing when this comes on ,restores my faith in music.

One of the best songs listened.

Find this hypnotic

Thank you BBC 6 Music 😂

This is a song with nothing going for it.

sounds more like you haven't got anything going for you.

This is great. Anna is finding her own sound IMHO and she plays a Telecaster. Respect!

After a couple beers n a pipe, I go proper x-eyed on this track!

grandiosa fabulosa muy apocaliptica

I read an article about Ms Calvi today and that's what brought me here. I'll admit to not always 'getting it' when I first listen to an album, even by my go-to singers and bands. What I look for is something that makes me want to play it again (maybe a couple more times). And that's what I've got here. And that was 'Don't Beat the Girl Out of my Boy'. And that was so Ezra Furman! Then there's the Bowie influence (real, imagined, deliberate or just by the way). Definitely enough to work with.
