You Got Me Going (home demo)
Neil Finn

Being a demo of Sacred Cow in its early form, some of the improvised lyrics are mumbled placeholders.

Deliberate provocation
It’s what you gave to ne
But you got me going
Yeah you got me going
The simple things that we must do
Will soon get out of control
When I let you down again
Yeah I let you down again

You could stand at the gates of Hell
And still not feel the fury
Why on Earth do you treat me bad
You know it just makes me feel like crying
All alone on a desperate beach
I might even feel like dying

When you got me going
Yeah you got me going
…. in a jealous rage
I was rolling on the grass in a younger age
….
Yeah you got me going

You could stand at the gates of Hell
And still not feel the fury
Why on Earth do you treat me like
You know it just makes me feel like crying
All alone on a desperate beach
I might even feel like dying

It’s what you gave to me
’Cause you got me going
Yeah you got me going
Whatever else there is to do
I promise I will love you always
You know what’s good for me
And I know you’re too good for me

Tell me if there is light enough
We will play outside ‘til dinner
Why on Earth you know it makes me feel
…. a jealous jury
Why on Earth do you feel like that
You know it just makes me feel like crying
All alone on a desperate day
I might feel like dying, dying
