'Everyone feels good in the room,' she swings'Two chord cool in the head,' she sings'A-buzz a-buzz a-buzzing like them killer bees...'Tell me this is not for realPlease simply this is not for real... From time to time her eyes get wideAnd she's always got them stuck on meI'm surprised at how hot honey-colored and hungry she looksAnd I have to turn away to keep from burstingYeah I feel that good She slips from the stageA foot no moreBut it seems to take an hour for her to reach the floorAnd the two chord cool still groovesAs she slides towards me smooth as a snakeI can't swallow I just start to shakeAnd I just know this is a big mistakeYeah but it feels good! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me!Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! 'If you want I can take you on another kind of ride...''Believe me I would but...'Deep inside the 'but' is 'please'I am yearning for another tasteAnd my shaking is 'yes' 'You will be all the things in the world you've never beenSee all the things in the world you've never seenDream all the things in the world you've never dreamed...'But I think I get a bit confusedAm I seducing or being seduced? Oh I know that tomorrow I'll feel badBut I really couldn't care about thatShe's grinning, singing, spinning me round and roundSmiling as I start to fallHer face gets big, her face gets smallIt's like tonight I'm really not me at allAnd it feels good! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me!Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! It feels good!

It started with a dedication'Lost in admiration - happy birthday - I'm forever yours - Blossom'Faded red inside a tiny book of butterfliesI smiled surprised at how when flickered throughThe wings flew by spelled out my name... Six months went by the summer lostObsessively the letters dropped into my lifeThe same soft blood smooth flowing hand'Please try to understand - I have to see you - have to feel you -Tell you all the ways I need you - yours forever in love...' Strange attraction spreads its wingsIt varies but the smallest thingsYou never know how anything will changeStrange attraction spreads its wingsAnd alters but the smallest thingsYou never know how anything will fade The year grew old incessantly she wrote to meShe'd started smoking poetry!I laughed in recognition of a favourite phraseShe'd pulled me in...I answered herA Christmas card in sepiaArranging when and whereAnd how the two of us should meet... Her opening so well preparedA nervous smileI couldn't take my eyes from herShe whispered,'Can I use some of your lipstick?'It was perfect so believableI couldn't help but feel that it was realAnd kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms... Strange attraction spreads its wingsIt varies but the smallest thingsYou never know how anything will changeStrange attraction spreads its wingsAnd alters but the smallest thingsYou never know how anything will fade So alone into the cold new year without another word from herI wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the springBut weeks went by with no reply until once more my birthday cameAnd with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same... 'I'm sorry - blame infatuation - blame imagination -I was sure you'd be the one but I was wrong -It seems reality destroys our dreams - I won't forget you - Blossom'Faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes... Strange attraction spreads its wingsIt varies but the smallest thingsYou never know how anything will changeStrange attraction spreads its wingsAnd alters but the smallest thingsAnd you never know...

She follows me down to the sound of the seaSlips to the sand and stares up at me'Is this how it happens? Is this how it feels?Is this how a star falls? Is this how a star falls?' The night turns as I try to explainIrresistible attraction and orbital plane'Or maybe it's more like a moth to a flame,'She brushes my face with her smile'Forget about stars for a while!' She melts... Meanwhile millions of miles away in spaceThe incoming comet brushes Jupiter's faceAnd disappears away with barely a trace... 'Was that it? Was that the Jupiter show?It kinda wasn't quite what I'd hoped for, you know'Pulling away she stands up slowAround her the night turnsAround her the night turns Yeah, yeah, yeah that was itThat was the Jupiter crashDrawn too close and gone in a flashJust a few bruises in the region of the splash... She left to the sound of the seaShe just drifted away from meYeah so much for gravity!

Round and round and round and round and round we goTrying so hard to get ahold of everyone hereWe've got to show how much we love them allWe squeak with idiot fake surpriseFlap our hands and flutter our eyesAnd lap up all their stupid liesWe've got to love them all And I really don't know why we do it like thisImitation smiles and how 'it's wonderful to be here!'I'm really not sure what we're so scared we'll miss So round and round and round and round and round we goHanging on every shape they throwIt's strange the way we can't say noUntil we love them all... So we laugh at every stupid jokeAnd smoke and choke and point and pokeAnd gag on countless lines...How much we love them all! And I really don't know why we do it like thisImitation smiles and how 'it's wonderful to be here!'I'm really not sure what we're so scared we'll miss Maybe it's the sex with the drugs and the foolsOr maybe it's the promise of belief?Maybe it's the pleasure and the pain of the cruelOr maybe it's the promise of relief?And I know that we've said it so many times beforeOnce more and never againBut however many times that we've said it beforeOnce more is never the end...

Yeah this is how it endsAfter all these yearsTired of it allHopelessly helplessly broken apartHe finally fallsHe doesn't want to thinkDoesn't want to feelDoesn't want to know what's going onSays there's nothing he can do will change anythingHe doesn't want to know what's going wrongBecause he's in love with a drugOne that makes him numbOne that stops him feeling at allHe's in love with a drugForget everyoneHe really doesn't care anymoreAnymore... Yeah this is how it endsAfter all this timeEverything just fades awayWorn-out and empty and all aloneWith nothing left to sayOh it's all too big to make a differenceIt's all too wrong to make it rightYeah everything is too unfairEverything too much to bearHe doesn't have the strength left for the fightSays all he wants is the drugThe one that makes him numbThe one that stops him feeling at allHe just wants to take the drugForget everyoneHe doesn't want to care anymoreJust keeps loving the drugThe one that makes him numbThe one that stops him feeling at allJust keeps loving the drugThe drug that he's becomeHe isn't really here anymore...

Yeah but I really love it here!You've done everything to please!Stolichnaya! Banco de Gaia! Bad timing on TV!And I reeeally love the way you turnYour smile into striptease...But I'm still not sure what's going onAnd I can't help feeling something's wrong But you just say that we're all spinningAnd it's really not just meBut that doesn't seem to help me figure out how I can beStill wrapped inside your rubber as I wriggle at your feet...No it didn't used to be like thisMust be something strange I kissed...Maybe when my eyes were closed? So tell me what is going on?I'm sure that I've already gone...But all you say is we're all spinningAnd it's really not just meBut that doesn't seem to help me figure out how I can beStill fixed inside your fantasyA TV refugee...So tell me what is going on?Just can't help feeling something's wrong...Or is it right this way I feel?Someone get me out of here!!!I'm waiting on my knees...
