Love struck me down way too young
I wish I'd known what I know now
Love struck me down
The silver lining only served to conceal the cloud
It lay in wait pretending
To be some kind of happy ending
Love struck me down
It hollowed me out and wore me like a crown
Love struck me down and got me bewitched
Now word's going round that I'm cupid's new bitch
Love struck me down
Saddled me up and rode me around
I looked to the sky and saw eros fly by
With a bow in his hands and a glint in his eye
Tattoos on his shoulders where there should have been wings
He was clinking a chain made of old wedding rings
And towering above on a dark cloud stood love
Cramming her claws into a pair of black gloves
She told me politely
"I think you'll grow to like me"
Down came aphrodite and screamed "you can't fight me"
Love struck me down way too young
Pinned me to the ground and ripped out my tongue
Love struck me down
And fed me in chunks to her slavering hounds
Once you've seen what I've got to show
Beneath my halo
You'll never ever want to go
(And nobody need know)
If another tempts you away
I'll make them pay
So stay with me
Love speaks a tongue that none can translate
It stands at our rudder with no other shipmates
I'm sure that my mother told me I should just wait
But I took love's bait
Now it's too late
Little boy follow me down
Little boy follow me down
