GIVE ME ALL YOU GOT BUT NOT LOVE, ER, TRUTH. OH FORGET IT!

This song should have been entitled, "Give me all you got but not love", which is a line in the song, or in one particular case, "Give me all you got but not truth".

But in this world of lies, are truth and love the same? I mean exactly the same? That we can write: truth = love?

Joe Jackson - It's Different for Girls


What the Hell is wrong with you tonight?
I can't seem to say or do the right thing
Wanted to be sure you're feeling right
Wanted to be sure we want the same thing

She said, "I can't believe it
You can't, possibly mean it
Don't we, all want the same thing
Don't we, well, who said anything about love?"

"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"
(Don't give me love)
"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"
You're all the same

Mama always told me, "Save yourself
Take a little time and find the right girl
Then again don't end up on the shelf
Logical advice gets you in a whirl"

I know, a lot of things that you don't
You wanna hear some?
She said, "Just give me something
Anything, well, give me all you got but not love"

"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"
(Don't give me love)
"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"

You're all the same
You're all the same
You're all the same

Who said anything about love?
"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"
(Don't give me love)

"No, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"
(Don't give me love)
"No, no, no, no, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"

(Don't give me love)
"No, no, no, no, no, not love", she said
"Don't you know that it's different for girls?"

You're all the same
You're all the same
You're all the same
You're all the same
