Title: OOTS problem
Post by: bonozevolik on November 24, 2005, 07:20:54 PM: Hello everybody. I have a doubt. What does Bono says in the .... I put here?? Anyone knows??

Sugar come on, show your soul
You've been keeping your love
Under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it (.....)
Everywhere you go you (..........)
Oh my, my

In the second line of "everywhere..." I think he continues with something like "Everywhere you go you see..."

He did change the lyrics in the live Chicago version - I posted them as they were on the iTunes video (though that has some in song editing, no surprise I suppose).

Post by: Carl on February 04, 2006, 02:04:58 AM: I'm not sure if you checked the lyrics here, but this is what I had up before:

You don't have to be shy about it (no)
Everywhere you go you shout it (on high)

I took another listen and the first line still holds true for me, but the second doesn't. I narrowed it down to:

you sing (up high) [this is doubtful]
you show/save (your body) [more of what I hear]

Ended up updating 'show your body' - which as, er, perverse as it sounds actually lines up with Bono's talk of it being about his daughter's feeling uncomfortable about their bodies growing up and perhaps also his somewhat admonishing/bemused/appreciative 'oh my my' after.

I don't hear "Come on now" (in either the single or the studio version) in the second line of the following:

Sugar come on
Come on now show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control
