Derrick is a Strange Machine - Ashbury Heights

We were lovers for some time

We went separate ways that’s fine

But I can’t sit idly by

I’ve seen you hand in hand with him

Derrick is a man of whim

He will surely see you cry

I don’t want to come between

I don’t want to ruin your love

But Derrick is a strange machine

I don’t want to be obscene

I don’t want to tell what he’s done

But Derrick is a loaded gun

He can be so very cruel

He has but a single rule

A cold and heartless point of view

You should have a better care

And put an end to this affair

Derrick’s always been bad news

I don’t want to come between

I don’t want to ruin your love

But Derrick is a strange machine

I don’t want to be obscene

I don’t want to tell what he’s done

But Derrick is a loaded gun

We were lovers for some time

We were lovers for some time

I don’t want to come between

I don’t want to ruin your love

But Derrick is a strange machine

I don’t want to be obscene

I don’t want to tell what he’s done

But Derrick is a loaded gun

We were lovers for some time
