Nation of Language - Introduction, Presence

Friend Machine

One touch
Look away
And as far as I can tell
I can't defend myself
Before you know my name
I can't defend myself

I was an open book
All the weight of the spine

To the cold curbside
I need a friend machine to help me outside
And tomorrow comes and they all stop singin' along
I need a friend machine to help me just to last the night

I look for deliverance, but
I'm livin' under some kind of spell
I can't defend myself

It's just an itch
There in the bottom of the mind
Come out with it
You make me wonder all the time (ooh-ooh)
Are you listenin', friend?
Will you tend to me? And I'll tend

To the cold curbside
I need a friend machine to help me outside
And tomorrow comes and they all stop singin' along
I need a friend machine to help me just to last the night

To the cold curbside
(I, I) I need a friend machine to help me outside
And tomorrow comes and they all stop singin' along
I need a friend machine to help me just to last the night

I need a friend machine to help me outside
