What's a man now? What's a man mean?
Is he rough or is he rugged? Is he cultural and clean?
Now it's all changed , It's got to change more
'Cause we think it's getting better but nobody's really sure.
But You Don't Care
Mi-Sex
The lightning flash in the plate glass
The reflection spears a hole in the back of my eyes
But an old man saunters nearby
Not noticing the flash on the chrome bars inside
I got you down on your bended knees
You begged for more - treatment please
Why can't you let it be - a tree stump twists
Your love shall not be missed
But you don't care, you just don't care
Well if there ain't no feelins there
I bet you don't care
A queen - the queen of hearts
she's more than one man can stand
But shell be walking through the courtyard
In hand with another man
A king - the king of spades
he's watching from the wings
But his mind is not into the show
Because he's into other things
Oh but he don't care, he just don't care
Well, if there ain't no feelins there
I bet…
I love this song, but man, the video still annoys me. The metaphor is about cards - Queen of Hearts, King of Spades - and yet they have that bloody chess set. I'm sure a decent designer could have come up with something for the card thing.
Great song, one of my all-time fave's
Steve Gilpin was my mentor in my early years of singing
(ie: I copied his singing style, because I was such afan of mi-Sex at the time)
I was so blown away when my cover band got to support Mi-Sex a few times
I got to get up on stage and sing with them (wrapped to the back teeth)
And then hang with them when we randomly met up again while I was roady'ing (?) for other gigs
And even roadie for them when I was between bands
Great band, Great guys, So Glad to see your playing again!
This song has real soul and groove. It made a huge impression on me in 1979 and I still love it today and forever, a truly brilliant and amazing band of musicians.
Hey "Just Sayin" totally agree. Everything was better back then. The Times, cares, worries & tunes, food, prices of drinks and the good times. No we have rip-off prices and lock-out times. wowser !!
