Messiahxxx Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Can we please show some love for the forgotten jewel that is this teen angst anthem? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jop2JdEh_lU I can't lock my door Oh, I don't have no privacy The only thing that's mine Is what's inside of me When I've had enough A little voice inside It says you've got to be tough You've got to take it in stride Sometimes I am foolish I let it get the best of me At least I know that my mistakes Are my responsibility And [Chorus:] I just have to laugh to keep from crying I just have to laugh to keep from crying I don't have a dime Oh, to buy those pretty things But I hear all the evidence You know it all sounds the same But I'm still waiting I've got my hands open wide You know my dream isn't fading I keep it hidden inside Oh [chorus] I just have to laugh to keep from crying I keep on trying My friends don't understand Oh, they think I've lost my mind And I'm choking back the tears I've got to swallow my pride [chorus] I just have to laugh, ah La, ah Lo, oh La, ah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurt420 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Love it!! This was track 1 on "Pre-Madonna", so this was the first "unreleased" Madonna song I ever heard back in 1997. It was SUCH A TREAT to have these early songs. I remember doubting it was even her at first with this song......lol.....her voice sounded so different.....a very Chrissie Hynde influenced Madonna recorded this song.
