[Intro]

One, two


[Verse 1]

I used to be an angry guy

But I've grown beyond that now

I'm going to be somebody's baby tonight


[Verse 2]

As long as I'm singing

And that big bell keeps on ringing

I'm sure my life outside is out of sight


[Verse 3]

No more homosexual hassles

Life among the grownups is in full swing

But I'm not a swinger forever

I fully desire what I already have


[Verse 4]

No more psychosexual battles

Life above the hung-up is my new thing

And I'm going to keep it together


[Verse 5]

I'm a walking invitation

But no one invites me

I want to be excited

But no one will excite me


[Verse 6]

No one dare invite me

'Cause I'm waiting for you

No one could excite me

Any more than you


[Verse 7]

Still inside

I'm a healthy blue

'Cause I'm not complete

With these thoughts of you


[Verse 8]

Nothing satisfies me

When I'm thinking of you

No one could excite me

Any more than you


[Verse 9]

I have the truth, I held you

Loved you so sincere

Through all the shit-stained curtains

Our love was really quite clear


[Verse 10]

But all that you left me

Is the empty need

But I hurt you more evil

Before you hurt me


[Verse 11]

'Cause nothing satisfies me

When I'm thinking of you

No one could excite me

Anymore than you


[Verse 12]

You are the inspiration

Evil prince, I fear

That's not the truth

Rock-hard life lying right here

It's just a lie I told, oh
