Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Alcoholic kind of mood

Lose my clothes

Lose my lube

Cruising for a piece of fun

Looking out for number one

Different partner every night

So narcotic outta sight

What a gas

What a beautiful ass

[Chorus]

And it all breaks down at the role reversal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

[Verse 2]

Kind of buzz that lasts for days

Had some help from insect ways

Comes across all shy and coy

Just another nancy boy

Woman man or modern monkey

Just another happy junkie

Fifty pounds

Press my button

Going down

[Chorus]

And it all breaks down at the role reversal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

[Verse 3]

Does his makeup in his room

Douse himself with cheap perfume

Eyeholes in a paper bag

Greatest lay I ever had

Kind of guy who mates for life

Gotta help him find a wife

We're a couple

When our bodies double

[Chorus]

And it all breaks down at the role reversal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

Me

[Chorus]

And it all breaks down at the role reversal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me

And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal

Got the muse in my head, she's universal

Spinnin' me 'round she's coming over me

Me
