Like the man who stands behind the man And whispers in his ear 'Pretend you know the secret and then Keep all your enemies near' Well I held you close And I squeezed so hard I made your eardrums pop But you hung there like a lifeless doll And said I wonder could you ever stop So what can I have if I can't have enemies What can I have if I can't have pearls Tell me what I need and the give it to me darling But all I really want is your love baby The hearts they bang like doors all night And the shutters slam like cells And the yellow rose of electricity blooms And then flickers as someone yells Well I heard that scream from far away But it seemed so awfully near Until I heard the sound of my own voice Stinging in my ear I call you in the morning And I call you in the night And I call you in the early dawn And the next time that I call you babe I'll be calling long before you're born Well the crows beat high But they caw so clear Like the croak of a dying man Then they fall like an angry cloud to feed On the stooped and stunted corn Do you take me for a fool Do you take me for a wretch When you take me for a little ride But I'll take you in the morning And I'll take you in the night And I'll take you over on your side And I'll take you in the front And I'll take you in the back And I'll take you in the middle too But I wish you'd take me where I wanted to go And I wish you'd come along too It's just a sex thing And that's enough But I can't help it If I fall in love
