Love Bomb

Come on

I read that book from back to front

It made a deep impression

Near 20000 pages, baby

And I hope for some direction

I stood before the mirror

And I stared at my reflection

I'd almost disappeared

And I made no impression

I went down to my baby's house

And I sat down on the step

Said 2,000 years of Christian history, baby

And you ain't learned to love me yet?

My baby looked me in the eye

My nails were bitten to the quick

She said you used to love me all night long

But you've gotten so thin and sick

Gonna send you a love bomb

I'm gonna send you a love bomb

I read that book from back to front

Yea, looking for some inspiration

I been listening to the radio

Trying to find some self-expression

I been listening to the Woman's Hour

I been listening to Gardener's Question Time

But everything I try to grow

I can't even grow a dandelion

Yea I been watching the MTV

And I been watching the BBC

Yea I been searching on the internet

I'm gettin' so thin and sick

I'm gonna send you a love bomb

I'm gonna send you a love bomb

Love bomb

I went down to my baby's house

I sat down on the step

Yea I went down to my baby's house

And I lay down on the step

She said what are you doing here?

I said I been tryin' to make some sense

But every action that I take

Is of absolutely no fucking consequence

My baby said she can't see that

She reached down with her fingers

Her fingers went right through me

I screamed my head off

I was so thin and sick

Gonna send you a love bomb

Gonna send you a love bomb
