S.O.B.
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Love might tell you
Desires gonna fail you
Get all packed up and ready to go
What about it seems so shocking
When everybody's boots are knocking
It's better with the devil you know
Oh no (yes, you can)
Oh yes (better touch your man)
I'ma tell you what to do
One thing's for certain
Never close the curtains
Baby you got nothing to lose
I got sex on the brain
Willpower goes down the drain
Sex on the brain tonight
I got sex on my mind
Mama says: Stop or you're going blind
Sex on my mind tonight
Sometimes things don't go according to plan
So it goes with your lady lips, goddamn
Who got the motion, who got the moves, I am
She got both the looks and the hooks in my skin
Oh no (yes, you can)
Oh yes (better touch your man)
I'ma tell you what to do
Love's just depressing
Keep 'em second guessing
Baby you got nothing to prove
I got sex on the brain
Willpower goes down the drain
Sex on the brain tonight
I got sex on my mind
Mama says: Stop or you're going blind
Sex on my mind tonight
Sex on the brain
Sex on the brain
Got the SOB
Ain't nobody gonna marry me
I say, with SOB tonight
Sex on the brain
Sex on the brain
Got the SOB
Don't see nothing gonna scary me
I say, with SOB tonight
Sex on the brain
Sex on the brain
Got the SOB
Ain't nobody gonna marry me
I say I've got the SOB tonight
I got sex on the brain
Willpower goes down the drain
Sex on the brain tonight
I got sex on my mind
Mama says: Stop or you're going blind
Sex on my mind tonight (sex on the brain, sex on the brain)
I got sex on the brain
Willpower goes down the drain
Sex on the brain tonight (sex on the brain, sex on the brain)
I got sex on my mind
Mama says: Stop or you're going blind
Sex on my mind tonight
