I picked you out of a crowd, and I talked to you.
I said I liked your shoes,
You said, "Thanks, can I follow you?"
And so it's up the stairs and out of view from prying eyes.
I poured some wine --
I asked your name, you asked the time.
(Interlude)
Now it's two o'clock --
The club is closed,
We're up the block.
Your hands on me,
Pressing so hard against my jeans.
Your tongue in my mouth (Lord),
You're trying to keep those words from coming out,
You didn't care to know-oh-oh-oh-oh,
Who else may have been you before.
(Interlude)
I want a lover I don't have to love.
I want a girl who's too sad to give a fuck.
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I thought he said to meet him here,
But I'm not sure.
I got the money if you got the time,
She said, "It feels good."
I said, "I'll give it a try."
(Interlude)
And then my mind went dark,
We both forgot where your car was parked.
"Let's just take the train,
I'll meet up with the band in the morning."
But bad actors with bad habits,
Some sad singers, man they just play tragic,
And the phone's ringin',
And the van, the van is leaving,
Let's just keep touching,
Let's just keep, keep singing.
(Vocal interlude)
I want a lover I don't have to love.
I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk.
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I got a a hunger and I can't seem to get full.
I need some meaning I can memorize.
The kind I have always seems to slip my mind.
But you? (But you?)
You write such pretty words.
But life's no storybook.
Love's an excuse to get hurt.
...and to hurt.
"Do you like to hurt?" "...I do, I do." "Then hurt me." (Repeat 8x)
Hurt me! (Repeat 8x)
God dammit!
