Women's Intuition, Ian Hunter, YUI Orta

The Slimmer Twins wrote Women's Intuition together and it was one of the last tracks for the album. It sounds similar to The Rolling Stones as if they were still performing compelling music. This is a song similar to Bastard in that it sounds realistic and what being a relationship can be like. The woman is like Judas and used synonymously with betrayal as he was the disciple who betrayed Jesus to the Sanhedrin in the Garden of Gethsemane by kissing him on the cheek  to reveal his identity for arrest. A women involved with a musician is always whining yet:

I gave you-the best years of-your miserable life

The woman went wrong somewhere but should listen to her women's intuition or she will end up on her ass. The song is about Mick Ronson and Hunter writing about women who want to break up a band or keep a musician from the music. Men and women need to work it out: aggression vs. possession. Bernard Edwards played bass. 

There is a single edit version and live version from 1989. 

Also recorded at The Cabaret, San Jose CA 16th December 1989 and is on Missing In Action.

Judas betrayed Jesus to the Sanhedrin in the Garden of Gethsemane by kissing him on the cheek and addressing him as "master" to reveal his identity in the darkness to the crowd who had come to arrest him.[2] His name is often used synonymously with betrayal or treason.

Women's Intuition

(Ian Hunter)

Through the haze the mirror cries-hits you right between the eyes
You don't know-but you got the judas in you babe
You can't trust
You can't deliver
Always whinin' you were sold down the river
I gave you-the best years of-your miserable life

Where did you go wrong girl, where did you go wrong
Where did you go wrong babe-nice try, wrong guy
You're gonna wind up on your ass-you should have listened to your
WOMEN'S INTUITION

You can come (run)-but you can't hide-something messed you up inside
Ain't my fault-don't blame me-if you're dazed and confused
You're a lie, you're a television, tryin't drag into your prison
Had enough o'sleepin' rough-its over with you

where did you go wrong babe
Where did you go wrong
Where did you go wrong girl
Nice try
Goodbye
You're gonna wind up on your ass-you should;ve listened to your
WOMEN'S INTUITION

Tarred by the same old feathers-guess we got to stick together
But I say to you-don't ever invade-my destiny
Bad enough I ain't normal, give up tryin't make me formal
What I need when I bleed
Don't mean nothing to you

Where did you go wrong babe, where did you go wrong
Where did you go wrong girl
Dumb moves, no class
You're gonna wind up on your ass-you should 've listened to your
WOMEN'sINTUITION
