Taboo

You flew in from kalamazoo
We met at my waterloo
Doomed from the start
I wished it wasn't true
But I was caught with one whisk of your shoe
Deep down I knew I should say to you
But you're under my skin like some dead drunk tattoo
Taboo
Ooooooooo
Taboo
Ooooooooo
Taboo
Taboo
Deep down inside of you
You know it's taboo
Give the Devil his due
Taboo
Such a bad thing to do
Down at the end of your avenue
Taboo
Who can say what's taboo
Taboo
What's for me ain't for you
Taboo
Ooooooooo
Taboo
Ooooooooo
