...average it's the 5 girls dancing in some sort of bar and doing very uncool dance moves!! the lyrics are average and just as a bonus i thought i'd chuck them in!!! GIRLS ALOUD- LOVE M<ACHINE Ladies you're damn right You can't read a man's mind We're living in two tribes And heading for war Nobody's perfect We all gotta work it But fellas, we're worth it So don't break the law Your call's late, big mistake You've gotta hang about in limbo for as long as I take Next time, read my mind and I'll be good to you We're gift-wrapped kitty cats We're only turning into tigers when we gotta fight back Let's go, Eskimo Out into the blue Come take my hand Understand that you can You're my man and I need you tonight Come make my dreams Honey hard as it seems Loving me is as easy as pie, I I'm just a love...
