XXL Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Lyrics Melody Performance Evoked Imagery PERFECTION You can call me a sinner You can call me a saint Celebrate me for who I am Dislike me for what I ain't Put me up on a pedestal Or drag me down in the dirt Sticks and stones will break my bones But your names will never hurt I'll be the garden You be the snake All of my fruit is yours to take Better the devil that you know Your love for me will grow Because [Chorus] This is who I am You can Like it or not You can Love me or leave me Cus I'm never gonna stop No no Cleopatra had her way Matahari too Whether they were good or bad Is strictly up to you Life is a paradox and it doesn't make much sense Can't have the Femme without the Fatale Please don't take offense Don't let the fruit rot under the vine Fill up your cup and let's drink the wine Better the devil that you know Your love for me will grow Because Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVX Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Forget about Hung Up and Get Together, LION is my favorite song on Confessions! I loved it since the first time I heard it & it perfectly sums up everything Madonna is about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick00 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 The music still reminds a bit of Depeche Mode in a very good way. Remember also it sounded great live at msg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurt420 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I've always thought this was such a perfect closer for COADF. The song perfectly encapsulates exactly what Madonna has ALWAYS been about. Also, I found the juxtaposition of having a simple, strum of an acoustic guitar close an album that was non-stop layers of dance music a very Madonna thing to do. The live performance was a highlight of CT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
