Heat shimmer

Hips quiver

Open smother

Lipped lover

Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N

Little did I know then that the Mandela boys

Soon become Mandela men

Razor blades on a melted toothbrush

Assassin de la police

Heat shimmer

Silky glistener

Open smother

Lipped lover

Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N

Little did I know then that the Mandela boys

Soon become Mandela men

Silent knife, unholy knife

I've fallen for the black outside my window

On the C-O-double M-O-N

On the C-O-double M-O-N

A flood of blood to the heart

A flood of blood to the heart

A flood of blood to the heart

A flood of blood to the heart

A flood of blood to the heart (quelea, quelea)

And I won't admit I love you

And that I will lie for you

And I’ll wait to think I love you

Here, wait in front of you

Oh, divided down the line

The line that calls for you

And the world for two, for two

Here, wait in front of you
