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 sex, 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 cocaine
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
