The Flames

The Flames was a musical group from Durban in South Africa. The band was originally formed in 1963 by guitarist Steve Fataar, bassist Brother Fataar (real name Edries Fataar), drummer George Faber and guitarist Eugene Champion. However this line-up would only be together to record a couple of songs. Ricky Fataar replaced George Faber as the band's drummer around 1964 and Edries Fredericks replaced Eugene Champion as the guitarist. Baby Duval briefly replaced Edries Fredericks in 1967 although it is unclear whether he was involved in any of the recordings that were released. Blondie Chaplin then replaced Baby Duval in 1967. This was to be the line-up from 1967 until their demise as a group in 1970. more »

If you want
Something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby, my time
Is too expensive
And I am not
A little boy

If you are serious
Don't play with my heart, it makes me furious
But if you want me
To love you
Now baby, I will
Girl, you know that I will

Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed
To let your conscience be your guide
But I know
Deep down inside of me
I believe you love me
Forget your foolish pride

Life is too short to have sorrows
You may be here today, but gone tomorrow
You might as well give me what I want
So go on and leave
Baby, go on and leave

Tell it like it is
I am nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
But tell it like it is
My time is too expensive
And I am not a little boy

I'm just telling you like it is
