Lyrics

It's electricity You're on me like a static cling Mulled this over Heavy on my shoulders And it's Just another straight away Something sweet to save the day Played this over in my mind And screamed No-way Power gets what power makes Not tonight or in your dreams Time has come though We can both go And cut apart who we brang Smell the skin like gasoline Gifts are giving Take whats leaving Not me No-way Just as putrid as it seems If caught tonight they'd bury me Torn asunder but worth the wonder Smell it in the air tonight By the taste the time is right Pull the lever Now you see her
