Lyrics

Jump into the night, gas up and down shift Cruise up the coast on the FM drift It's a crazy world on the head of a pin Some other time, some other star I might've cried but now, you only need to look so far As the smile on my face, to see the shape I'm in Try love in a bottle, try love in a box Play it all night long, dance 'til you drop And it sure got soul, it's not flesh and blood Boy, I tried looking for love but I guess it's true You don't look for love, it's gonna look for you Well you found me, honey and you sound so good You're the object of my affection Not a dream or make believe You're the object of my affection Come to me Now we see the women in the photograph Sweet Anne of mercy and Sylvia Plath For a thousand words they got a life sentence, oh yeah If we lined up all the girls who died in vain We could walk on their heads to Hell and back again But I got the big book and antidepressants And you're the object of my affection Not a phantom fantasy, yeah You're the object of my affection Come to me, hey And you're the object of my affection Not a toy with batteries You're the object of my affection Not a rescue remedy, oh no You're the object of my affection Come to me
