"Poor Song"

i.e. hidden song after Modern Romance - great tune

Baby I'm afraid of a lot of things but

I ain't scared of loving you

And baby I know you're afraid of a lot of things

But don't be scared of love... 'cause

People will say all kinds of things

But that don't mean a damn to me

'Cause all I see is what's in front of me

And that's you

Well I've been dragged all over the place

I've taken hits time just don't erase

And baby I can see you've been fucked with too

But that don't mean your loving days are through

'Cause people will say all kinds of things

But that don't mean a damn to me

'Cause all I see is what's in front of me

And that's you

Well I may be just a fool

But I know you're just as cool

And cool kids, they belong together

G etc end
