Lyrics
Hahahaha,
It's jocular tink, it's not skin not bones not veins
It's jocular
I have to say it
Every nerve of my body is on fire
Every Muscle is in revolt
Tonight, I am gettin' her tonight
Okay, breath a little bit, just breath
Maybe we should kidnap her
Kidnap a girl?
Yeah, i don't know why not ask forransom.
Ransom would be sweet!
What's ransom
It's what you ask for when you take something
That doesn't belong to you
She is so pure and she's so beautiful
I wanna her so bad and she's so good
It's only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soar
(Woaaah, yees)
And all around the city you see the walking wounded
And the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
And then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
Uh, I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
INSTRUMENTAL
You can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horse
The subways are sizzling
And the skin of the streets is gleaming with sweat
Whoah, I've seen you sitting on the steps outside
And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
Hey come on, come on
Come on, come on and there'll be no turning back
You were only killing time and it'll kill you right back
Come on, come on, it's time to burn up the fuse
You got nothing to do and even less to lose
You got nothing to do and even less to lose
Guys I beg on my knees I never do this
So wander down to the ancient hallway
Taking the stairs only one at a time
Follow the sound of the heartbeat now
She's in the room at the top, you're at the end of the line
So open the door and lay down on the bed
The sun is just a ball of desire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan and into the fire and into the fire
Come on, clap, clap
Let's do this
Come on hey, let's do it.
So wander down to the ancient hallway
Taking the stairs only one at a time
Follow the sound of the heartbeat now
She's in the room at the top, you're at the end of the line
So open the door and lay down on the bed
The sun is just a ball of desire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
And into the, and into the, and into the
And into the fire, fire, fire, and into the fire, fire, fire
And into the fire, fire, fire
And into the fire
Raven
A raven, raven
