Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
i'm packed and i'm holding i'm smiling
she living she golden and she lives for me
says she lives for me
ovation her own motivation
she comes round and she goes down on me
and i make her smile
like a drug for you
do ever what you want to do
coming over you
keep on smiling what we go through
one stop to the rhythm that divides you
and i speak to you like the chorus to the verse
chop another line like a coda with a curse
come on like a freak show takes the stage
we give them the games we play
she said i want something else
to get me through this
semi-charmed kind of life baby baby
i want something else
i'm not listening when you say
good-bye
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
the sky was gold, it was rose
i was taking sips of it through my nose
and i wish i could get back there
some place back there
smiling in the pictures you would take
doing crystal myth
will lift you up until you break
it won't stop, i won't come down, i keep stock
with a tick tock rhythm and a bump for the drop
and then i bumped up
i took the hit i was given
then i bumped again
and then i bumped again she said
how do i get back there to
the place where i fell asleep inside you
how do i get myself back to
the place where you said
i want something else to get me through this
semi-charmed kind of life baby baby
i want something else
i'm not listening when you say
good-bye
i believe in the sand beneath my toes
the beach gives a feeling an earthy feeling
i believe in the faith that grows
and the four right chords can make me cry
when i'm with you i feel like i could die
and that would be all right, all right
[the following part was cut out of the radio edit]
when the plane came in
she said she was crashing
the velvet it rips in the city we tripped
on the urge to feel alive but now i'm struggling to survive
those days you were wearing that velvet dress
you're the priestess i must confess
those little red panties they pass the test
side up around the belly
face down on the mattress
one, and you hold me and we're broken
still it's all that i want to do just a little now
feel myself hurry underground,
i'm scared i'm not coming down
and i won't run for my life
she's got her jaws now locked down in a smile
but nothing is all right, all right
[end of part that was edited out]
i want something else
to get me through this life baby
i want something else
not listening when you say
good-bye
good-bye
good-bye
good-bye
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
the sky was gold it was rose
i was taking sips of it to my nose
and i wish i could get back there someplace
back there in the place we used to
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
i want something else
