you are the only person i know but i take you round to people who are on the go well you took me to a picture show and what's the first thing i see but them burning pictures of my head to toe, hey! i'm not an effigy, no, no! i asked you if you would be mad if i packed my things and moved away to faraway land well i packed my things and i moved to this place and what's the first thing i see but them burning pictures of me in my face, hey! i'm not an effigy, no, no! well i moved back from this faraway land walked right into a room with me mum and me dad well i saw my picture hanging on the wall they tried to rip it and burn it but it just withstood it all and i said hey! i'm not an effigy i'm not angry i'm not an effigy... hey! well walking around this stinking town i look up at the buildings and they get me down well i look to my left and then i look to my right and then i realize they've been striking at me since the middle of last night, hey! i'm not an effigy

Hey! You said you needed full time help 'Cause you're all alone I said I'd work for nothing at all If I just could take you home And now you're taking applications For your love You wanted certain specifications I circled the one that said all the above Work... for love Finally got my resume And you said you'd reviewed it some other day I said, "Girl, hey, do it if you dare Where I'd like to go our love will flare" Finally my letter arrived And I knew you would be mine Instead I had to prove my turf For the first two weeks work overtime Work... for love You've got to work You've got to work for love (had enough, had enough?)
