License to Kill Lyrics

Cover art for License to Kill lyrics by Gladys Knight

Tina Turner sung the next Bond song, why not also this one? The voices are very similar. Now i understood that she could be fooling the sick jealousy of Ike Turner. It is said that he mistreated her.

However, sometimes cigarette burns are involved in mistreatment. And this will ruin your skin. So you should perhaps not start smoking. I like the song better when i think about the sociological consequences of jealous behaviour. One chicane is that you don't have the license to "smoke" anymore. "Smoking Kills". You stil have the license to go to war and see how "James Bond-like" you feel there anyway...
