Mal Webb - Hug lyrics

If you're feeling forlorn or a bit full on Here's a cure that's a medical paragon It's a fantasy panacea, yes indeed You just need a good hug That's all you need There's no need to beg And no need to steal And there's no hidden cost In a reciprocal deal You should only ever hug When it's all agreed That you need a good hug That's all you need Hugging makes you happy It'll make you smile Take your inhibitions And lose them for a while Hugging makes you feel like Everything's OK But don't wait 'til tomorrow When you can hug today It won't leave you in debt with a legal writ It won't leave you With clothing that doesn't fit It won't leave you with another little Mouth to feed You just need a good hug That's all you need There's no known communicable Diseases involved So if you leave it at hugging Then your problem's solved And if you do it right You won't bruise or bleed You just need a good hug That's all you need You can start with a handshake Let it evolve to involve a little toll On your heart and soul Any s**, age or creed Any species or breed You just need a good hug That's all you need You don't need psychedelics To addle your brain You don't need nicotine Caffeine or c**aine You don't need a bag of weed Or a line of speed You just need a good hug That's all you need You don't need a pair of Gaultier boxer shorts You don't need a flatmate With two dimensional thoughts You don't need a prostitute Who'll scream and plead You just need a good hug That's all you need There may be somebody That you once knew Who had always felt the need To embrace with you And if only you'd known All the signs to read When you need a good hug That's all you need
