Tell me what you're doing now
Before things get out of hand
I've got a strange way of handling things
I thought by now you'd understand
Tell me what you're thinking now
You know how things work in my head
As soon as you've passed the corner, babe
My mind is telling me our love is dead
Out of reach of sunbeams
I need some fire
If you know what I mean
You know what I mean
You are my kerosene
You evasive queen
You are my kerosene
Seems like forever, babe
I've been waiting on my turn
But please, please be careful now
If you spill on me, I'll burn
Has it really come to this?
Have I drifted off too far?
Is the light that I've been following
Nothing but a dying star?
Hopelessly stuck in-between
I gotta get some sparks flying
And fuel my machine
Fuel my machine
You are my kerosene
You forbidden dream
You are my kerosene
A vision serene
Like Saint Augustine
Most beautiful thing
That I ever seen
My Mary Magdalene
So deadly and lean
My, my serpentine
Hiding in the fields of green
Poison in my bloodstream
The killer foreseen
You are my kerosene
