Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to The Cure or about the 1980s in general.

It’s not a case of doing what’s right
It’s just the way I feel that matters
Tell me I’m wrong
I don’t really care

It’s not a case of share and share alike
I take what I require
I don’t understand …
You say it’s not fair

You expect me to act
Like a lover
Consider my moves
And deserve the reward
To hold you in my arms
And wait
And wait
And wait
For something to happen

It’s not a case of telling the truth
Some lines just fit the situation
Call me a liar
You would anyway

It’s not a case of aiming to please
You know you’re always crying
It’s just your part
In the play for today
