Undress me
Undress me
But not right away
Not too fast, eh!

Can you crave for me?
Desire me?
Enthral me

Undress me
Undress me
But don't be like the first time
Or go too crazy

First look at the truth
Take time to proceed
Don't be uncouth
Or show your greed
Devour me with your eyes
But be cautious
I'll become ravenous
By and by

Undress me
Deshabillez moi
But not right away
Not too fast, eh!

Can you hypnotise me?
Envelop me?
Capture me

Undress me
Undress me
But with some tact
And be exact
And dextrous

Choose your words with care
Control yourself, be strict
Not too slow nor quick
On my skin
There that's it, I'm trembling
And offer much to your expert touch
Oh, come on!

Undress me
Deshabillez moi
I want it right away
Go faster, it's okay
Can you possess me?
Consume me?
Burn me...up!

Undress me
Undress me
Behave like a lover
And be a lover
Do it!

Undress me
come on, undress me
And you......undress yourself

(Race of Abel)
Eat, sleep and drink
God smiles on you contentedly
(Race of Cain)
In filth and stink grovel
And die wretchedly
(Race of Abel)
Your sacrifice smells good
To an angel's nose
(Race of Cain)
What's the price
Of your torment and woes?
(Race of Abel)
Watch your seeds sprout
Your cattle grow fat
(Race of Cain)
Your guts plead
For hunger howls like a wild cat!
(Race of Abel)
Warm your insides
At the patriarchal fire
(Race of Cain)
In your dank hides poor jackals
Trembling and dire
(Race of Abel)
Make love and spawn
For your gold will likewise delight
(Race of Cain)
When your hearts burn
Watch out for such appetites
(Race of Abel)
Grow and graze
Devour the world like the pest
(Race of Cain)
Along rough ways
Drag your families in distress
(Race of Abel)
Your foul carcass
Will manure the reeking ground
(Race of Cain)
Up off your arse
Your work is once again found
(Race of Abel)
Here's your shame
The fire is vanquished by the rod
(Race of Cain)
Take up your claim
Out of the heavens fling God!

Keep on looking now
You gotta keep on looking now
Keep on looking now

You're looking for love
In all the wrong places

Where your walk it's always shadow
Conversation always shallow
When they talk they never look you in the eye
They look over your shoulder
To faces even colder
And you feel a little older
Every time

You're looking for love
In all the wrong places

When you're looking for reaction
When you're searching for direction
When you're scared of rejection
Or attack
You need the warmth of loving
When you're growing tired of seeing
A colourless reflection
Looking back

You're looking for love
In all the wrong places

Something real to fill those little empty spaces
So you're looking for love in all the wrong places

You need understanding
You need a home
All those people so alone
You need understanding
You need a home
All those people so alone

You're looking for love
In all the wrong places
You're looking for love
In all the wrong places

You better keep on looking now!

And so the evening shade will fall
Where nameless voices call and call
And think of all the friends you made
While you toast with Prozac and lemonade

You can hold me under septic skies
(You can dream to your own places)
Watch the sun set in my eyes
(You can't seem to put)
Could this be the time to die?
(A name to all the faces)
The wind upon your face
(Something real)
Your lips upon my lips
Like urban velvet
(To fill those little empty spaces)

So you're looking for love in all the wrong places
You keep on looking for love in all the wrong places

Dream and take away the tears
(Keep on looking now)
Drift on to where your heart is numb
(You gotta keep on looking now)
It's lovely there where love becomes
A drug to fill your need
Just believe in you!
And learn to love yourself
Before anyone else

Come into the scarlet bedroom
And maybe spend the night
Sink amongst the satin sheets
In dissolute delight
Just a little touch of sadness
A little a second sight

Come into my world of madness
Come and spend the night it's truly
Star spangled fabulous lover
In the red bedroom
In the dead bedroom
Gonna open up your eyes to a little life

Come and try something delicious
Prepare for your demise
Never ever repetitious
Always a surprise
For a little touch of darkness
You can see the light
Call me cruel and call me heartless
But please call me tonight
It's truly

Star spangled fabulous lover
In the red bedroom
In the dead bedroom
You want be getting out alive

Come into my Burlesque show
You're gonna be in the show
It's going to be monumental
Come and be my movie star
You can do the striptease
In my new continental
Hot blue movie
We could film it in my Scarlet Bedroom

Try a little tender moment
But don't let it suffice
Why be happy with vanilla
When you can have the spice
Sugar coated innocence
Is something not too nice
Call me cruel and call me callous
But please call me tonight
It's truly
Star spangled fabulous lover
In the red bedroom
In the dead bedroom
Gonna open up your mind
In the red bedroom
You're gonna kiss your life goodbye.

Well it seems you have a heart
I saw it once so I know it's true
You let it out on Sundays when
You let it beat me black and blue
When you went and stole my heart
I saw it go so I know it's true
It was a ruby, ruby, ruby red
It was the most precious gift I could give to you

It was as red as the sun in the evening sky
It was as red as the fire in a panther's eye
It was as red as the rose under the summer sun
Like a fire from a killer's gun

Ruby, ruby red
Shine a light onto this boy's bed
There's a street lamp glowing in my head
Oh, Ruby, ruby, ruby red

Well it seems you have a soul
You let it go so I know it's true
It was a ruby, ruby, ruby red
It keeps me warm when I'm feeling sad and blue
Well you went and stole my heart
I saw it go so I know it's true
I wrapped it up in a bouquet of barbed wire
It was the wickedest gift I could give to you

It was as red as the sun in the evening sky
It was as red as the fire in a panther's eye
It was as red as the rose under the summer sun
Like a fire from a killer's gun

Ruby, ruby red
Shine a light onto this boy's bed
There's a street lamp glowing in my head
Oh, Ruby, ruby, ruby red

Oh just like Johnny Rio baby
I need to be desired
I give up looking for my past
For the ones I left behind
Ruby red, ruby red, hey, hey, hey

Ruby, ruby red
Shine a light onto this boy's bed
There's a street lamp glowing in my head
Oh, Ruby, ruby, ruby red

It was the most precious jewel
I could give to you
Colour me red when I'm feeling blue
The colour of a kiss
In a young girl's dream
The mark of a guillotine
A drop of blood from a single thorn
Red wet sheets in the afternoon
A red light leading to my tomb
Ruby red all around my room

Ruby, ruby red
Oh shine a light onto this boy's bed
Oh, ruby, ruby, ruby red

You say I'm your mystery
Please don't ever solve me
Because I won't be a mystery anymore
Something's holding my breath
Strikes the moment down
Gives me greater heights to reach

Sensual
Seriously sensual
We are all in search of the sensual
Eros
Erotomania
Brings ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy

Little lover
Let's explore a little while
Dance upon my heart
Take me on, you say
I'll be your mystery
We'll unveil a little more each time
A little more

Sensual
Seriously sensual
We are all in search of the sensual
Eros
Erotomania
Brings ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy

Do I ever feel tired?
I answer yes each time
It takes a little more to feel inspired
I'm a teardrop in a storm
A storm at the end of the world
I love you
I'd love you if you weren't you at all

Sensual
Seriously sensual
We are all in search of the sensual
Eros
Erotomania
Brings ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy

My room is flooded blue and green
It's completely real this dream seems
I need you
Or I need somebody now
This hurt it takes me to the edge
The moment when I taste my breath
Sweet with fear
And near to death
A kiss tastes sweeter on the brink of life
On the brink of life

Sensual
Seriously sensual
We are all in search of the sensual
Eros
Erotomania
Brings ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy

You say I'm your mystery
Please don't ever solve me
Because I won't be a mystery anymore
Something's holding my breath
Strikes the moment down
Gives me greater heights to reach

My dark beloved
When you lie asleep
Deep within your black marble tomb
For alcove and lodge
You will keep a damp, dripping vault
A pit of gloom

And when the stone
Weighing down your breast
And your thighs once supple
Through scant concern
Stills your heart
From it's desiring quest
Fastens your feet
From the reckless run

The grave, which shares
My eternal dream
For the poet the grave always understands
During long nights
When sleep is far away
Will ask: what do you gain
You dumb whore
Not to have known what the dead cry for?
And, like remorse,
At your flesh worms will gnaw

My love, my sweet, my king
My child whom I adore
My love, my sweet, my law
My other self
You are the setting sun
Fallen to the ground
You are my final spring
My God, how I love you

I've already made my way
I went towards silence
With such impudence
I wanted no one no more
I hurried into autumn
My final autumn, perhaps
I desired nothing no more
But like a miracle
You came into my light

And you, my love, my king
Breaking my frontiers
But you, my setting sun
My sky, my ground
You gave me all your years
From your heart
You are my final spring
My God, how I love you

I always thought that love
That the most beautiful love
Was one that's incestuous
There was in your eyes
There was in your eyes
A luminous tenderness
You wanted us to live
The most beautiful love
Love the most beautiful

I reopened my house
My large windows
And I crowned your brow
I kissed your mouth
You, my adolescent
You, my heartache
You have laid your 20 years
With my 40

For scarcely are they born
Than they're already condemned
Love of desperation
That never deadens
This diamond that was given us
I burnt our cathedral
Love the most beautiful
The most beautiful love
Is the one that's incestuous (adieu)

Goodbye, my child, my king
My love whom I adore
One day you will understand
That when one loves
One must leave the most beautiful
And conceal the pain
My love, my child, king
I leave, I love you

This is the truth
From the depths of my heart

I really must stop always being the child
Chasing his youth his heart, nose to the wind
I really must cure my tender nostalgia
Bury deep my stars beneath the veil of night
I must postpone my Spanish cheÂљeau
Dreams that befuddle like an old wine
I must also give up those sunny states
To become a man
And when that day comes

You will forgive me, you won't be surprised
When I show my teeth, when I show my bite
Then I will be a man
And I will stand tall

I really must share my classes with others
So my youth can pass at last, so I forget
I really must scrape my nails on my heart
That my life hardens with sorrow and pain
I must upset my guardian angels
Who soothed me too much
And when that day comes
You won't be annoyed
If I scratch a bit, if I practice being....so savage!

You will forgive me, you won't be surprised
When I show my teeth, when I show my bite
Then I will be a man
And I will stand tall

And you will be prepared to find before you
Someone who's like you, a wolf among the wolves
Then I will be a man
And I will stand tall

And you will be prepared to find before you
Someone who's like you, I'll be a wolf among the wolves
Then I will be a man
And I will stand tall

Then I will be a man
And I will stand tall

Heaven is here
Each night when I should be asleep
I put on my coat
And I walk the streets
I spend these hours
Escaping from my dreams
Afraid of what I might see
Fear has no beginning no end
So I spend all my time
With you on my mind
I see visions of you
All my dreams coming true
And I fall to my knees at your beauty

My hand over my heart
A heart that's filled with love
A love that can lift the soul
Divine worship forever Amen

There are times spent in despair
That you won't believe me
So many times I've tried to tell you
But my courage deceives me
You have my whole world under your heel
No words on this earth
Can convey the way I feel
Heaven is here
Where I once feared to be

And I fall to my knees
At your beauty
My hand over my heart
A heart that's filled with love
A love that can lift the soul
Divine worship
Forever Amen

I fall to my knees
I fall to my knees
You lift up my heart
You lift up my heart
Nothing so fine
Nothing so sure
As I'm gazing in awe
At your beauty
My hand over my heart
A heart that's filled with love
A love that can lift the soul
Divine worship forever Amen

And late each night
As I walk the streets
I pray for the day
I lay my heart at your feet
You lift up my heart
You lift up my heart
You lift up my heart
With your love

How good it must be
In your bed
Let me slip beneath the pile
The sky tells me nothing worthwhile
It will rain again it said
And me so alone in my bed

I think of people of my years
Who take wives, husbands, or lovers
For their stormy nights ahead

How good it is
In your bed
How the feathers are so snug
I would enter like a drug
If you weren't so noisy right
Too many sermons in the night

Are you scared of me touching you?
Open your sheets
Shut your mouth too
Now it's too late
I'm there

It's almost too hot
In your bed
Beneath the thick blanketing
Turn off the lights it's upsetting
Come close to me
I beg of you
I'll enjoy what you do

Just say how and just say when
And if a gourmand de creÂ‘Âќe
I must have someone
At all costs

But still you must realise
Before tomorrow's sunrise
Lest you desire it
Or dream
If you touch me
I'll.......scream!

Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze may tease the candle flame
A thousand dreams I dreamed
The splendid things I planned
I always built alas on weak and shifting sand
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
And only now I see how the years ran away
Yesterday when I was young
So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung
So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
I never stopped to think what life was all about
And every conversation I can now recall
Concerned itself with me, me, me and nothing else at all
Yesterday the moon was blue
And every crazy day brought something new to do
I used my magic age as if it were a wand
That never saw the waste and emptiness beyond
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died
The friends I made all seemed somehow drift away
And only I am left on stage to end the play
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
The time has come for me to pay
For yesterday....when I was young, young, young,......young
