Be My Guest (home demo 1989)
Neil Finn

Call me your friend
I’ll take your bags
All criminals too
Take me for what you can

Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
I ask for everything
Be my guest

Here’s my situation
Light on in my brain
Take my invitation
Your turn will come again

Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
I ask for everything
Be my guest

Try and tear me away
Colour the flames of bad sky
Oh, terrible fail
Saving the grail of firelight

(placeholder lyric)
Tell me what would you do
Oh terrible favour
That I must ask you all

Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
I ask for everything
Be my guest
I owe you
Be my Guest
I owe you
Be my guest

Be My Guest (live stream from Who Took The Music protest, Canberra, 27 April 1995)
Neil Finn

Call me your friend
I’ll take your bags
All criminals too
Take me for what you can

Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
A friendly face that you won’t forget

Here’s my situation
Colours and wondrous sounds
Take my invitation
Your turn will come around

Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
But you want everything
Be my guest
Be my guest

Try, tear me away
Don’t colour the fires of dawn
You, someone so cold
Can suddenly end up warm

Take my invitation
Colours and wondrous sounds
Here’s my situation
Your turn will come around

So be my guest
Be my guest
Be my guest
I owe you nothing
Be my guest
A friendly face that you won’t forget
Be my guest
