Prefab Sprout Picture
Prefab Sprout are an English pop band from Witton Gilbert, County Durham, who rose to fame during the 1980s. Though critically acclaimed, and considered by many to have released some of the best pop albums of the decade, the band never matched this acclaim with as much commercial success. Their biggest commercial and critical success came with 1990's 'Jordan: The Comeback', which was a hit in the UK and nominated for a Brit award. Perhaps their finest album, Steve McQueen, originally released in June 1985, is to be re-released on 2 April 2007 in a 2CD edition, this time with eight acoustic versions. The record company says: "Digitally remastered by original producer Thomas Dolby, the album is sounding even better than ever.

Wicked Things Lyrics

Prefab Sprout

Your mothers got bags of good advice the donts exceed the dos
But shes not you
All it takes is a little nerve as I close in for the kill
Just stand still
What could make a girl believe the wicked things hed say ?
What could make a girl believe the wicked things hed say ?
Like by the grace of God hell be the bugle boy on judgment day
All the jokers running wild, their politics are street, but still elite
The revolutions underway the dream is coming true - but not for you
All it takes is a little nerve as they close in for the kill
You just stand still
What could make a girl believe the wicked things hed say ?
What could make a girl believe the wicked things hed say ?
Like by the grace of God hell be the bugle boy on judgment day
Why must honest joe reap the wicked seed they sow ?
Maybe honest joe hides from things he hates to know
If joe goes on this way on honest wind will surely come and blow
