Lyrics

Lust

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.

Lust shows her pretty face and cupid hits his mark

And I have no time to say

I am not ready for this

Insipid smile on my face and a dumb remark

I trip, slip, slide over the precipice

I got the right map baby but the wrong direction

I'm staring at the TV set trying to right this wrong

I didn't cast my vote, it was a fixed election

Somebody tripped the switch and the light came on

Now, I can't make it stop

I cant make it stop

I cant make it stop

It's true and I can't explain

Just what makes her so different

I should feel wonderful, but I don't feel wonderful

And I don't want to carry this weight myself

You tell me I look bad

Hey what do you mean by that

Cause I'm addicted and I can't help myself

My wing and a prayer nose dives into the street

And they hang the "disturbed" sign outside my door

I twist my fingers and I shuffle my feet

My friend Dr. Robert said there is no cure

I got the right rat baby but the wrong dissection

I'm staring at the TV set trying to write this song

I didn't seek this mountain or this insurrection

I just entered somewhere beautiful I don't belong

I can't make it stop

I can't make it stop

I can't make it stop

It's true and I can't explain

Just what makes her so different

I don't want this fucked up pearl

I cannot take this she must be the one
