It Doesn’t Have to Be (Live) [Brighton Dome, Brighton, UK - 1987/04/17]

[Pre-Intro: Andy Bell]
As you can see, today we have some very special guests
And their name is the the BBC!
And that's why I didn't have enough time iron my shirts!
...

[Intro: Andy Bell]
Lala pamoja na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako
Sababu wewe hapana kaa na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako

[Verse 1: Andy Bell, Derek Smith & Steve Myers]
You are on one side
I am on the other
Are we divided?
Why can't we live together?
There are no rights
This isn't your decision
We need to talk of changing things
But no one wants to listen

[Chorus: Andy Bell, Derek Smith & Steve Myers]
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't have to be like that
It doеsn't have to be like that

[Verse 2: Andy Bell, Derek Smith & Steve Myers]
A hеart on the inside
The same as any other
Are we divided?
Why can't we live together?
We are broken
There's no one left to change it
Is that the way it has to be?
Why can't we rearrange it?

[Chorus: Andy Bell & (Derek Smith & Steve Myers)]
It doesn't have to be like that (One against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (One against one)
T doesn't have to be like that

[Interlude: Andy Bell]
Lala pamoja na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako
Sababu wewe hapana kaa na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako
Lala pamoja na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako
Sababu wewe hapana kaa na mimi
Nyumbani yako, nyumbani yako

[Verse 3: Andy Bell, Derek Smith & Steve Myers]
What is the secret
In calling me a brother?
Are we divided?
Always one against the other
We are strong now
Put down the ammunition
For what we know is right
Is gonna breakdown this division

[Chorus: Andy Bell & (Derek Smith & Steve Myers)]
It doesn't have to be like that (One against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (One against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (One against one)
(One against one) It doesn't have to be like that
(One against one) It doesn't have to be like that

[Outro: Andy Bell]
You are one side
And I am on the other
Are we divided?

[Post-Outro: Andy Bell]
Thank you!
