Safe Sex
Jim Steinman
as performed by Pandora's Box
AmNo one ever said I was a gullible girl
FI don't believe every-Gthing that I'm told
CI've been around and I Emknow the ropes
And I Fwon't get fooled again
AmI don't believe in no fairy tales
FI don't believe in the Gman in the moon
And no Cpot of gold or Emanything else
Is Fwaiting at the rainbow's end
EbI got no illusions Bbnow, I guess I Flost them long ago
EbYou're not gonna Bbget me with this, cause I C7already Dknow
Baby there's Gno such Cthing
Baby it Gjust ain't Emtrue
And there's Amno Em/Gsuch D/F#thing Am/Eas   Bm7safe Emsex
When it Ccomes to Dloving Emyou
When it Ccomes to Dloving Cyou
There's Calways the danger of G/Blosing control
And of Ambreaking my heart and Dexposing my soul
There's Cjust no protection from that G/Blook in your eyes
Or the Amtouch of your hands when I Dbreak down and cry
There's Emalways the risk of Bmsurrendering more
Than I Cever intended to Amdo
And there's Amno Em/Gsuch D/F#thing Am/Eas   Bm7safe Emsex
When it Ccomes to Dloving Emyou
When it Ccomes to Dloving Cyou
AmI don't believe in the boogie man
FI don't believe in no Gpie in the sky
You can Cwish upon a star until the Emstars are gone
FThat doesn't mean it's really so
AmThere's no such thing as a Santa Claus
FThere's no such thing as getting Gmoney for nothing
And no Cyellow brick road is gonna Emtake you there
WherFever you've been trying to go
EbWe'll never be as Bbyoung as this 
No matter Fhow we try, we grow
EbYou're not such an Bbinnocent boy 
And I C7already Dknow
Baby there's Gno such Cthing
Baby it Gjust ain't Emtrue
And there's Amno Em/Gsuch D/F#thing Am/Eas   Bm7safe Emsex
When it Ccomes to Dloving Emyou
When it Ccomes to Dloving Cyou
There's Calways the danger of G/Bgiving too much
Love is Amoften a drug
Love is Doften a crutch
There's Cno guarantee I can G/Bhandle it all
The Amhigher the climb
The Dlonger the fall
There's Calways the danger of G/Blosing control
And of Ambreaking my heart and Dexposing my soul
There's Cjust no protection from that G/Blook in your eyes
Or the Amtouch of your hands when I Dbreak down and cry
There's Emalways the risk of Bmsurrendering more
Than I Cever intended to Amdo
And there's Amno Em/Gsuch D/F#thing Am/Eas   Bm7safe Emsex
When it Ccomes to Dloving Emyou
When it Ccomes to Dloving Cyou
