Take me by the arm to the altar
Take me by the collar to the cliff
Take me by the waist to the water
Take me by the hair to the ferris wheel
Take me by the wrist to the river
Take me by the braid down to my grave
Love is selfish, love goes tic-toc-tic
And love knows Jesus, apples and oranges
It's a zoo in your room when you part your lips
And you long to kiss like you won't exist come the morning time
Come the sunrise
And all I'd like to do this afternoon is to
Drag the mattress up to the roof:
Hushed tones in the ears of the airplane next to you
Let's crawl all over one another
Likes crows on a carcass
Like ants on a crumb
Starving only, starving only
For the taste of tongues
Love is selfish, love goes tic-toc-tic
And loves knows Jesus, apples and oranges
Take me by the arm to the altar
Take me by the collar to the cliff
Take me by the waist to the water
Take me by the hair to the ferris wheel
Take me by the wrist to the river
Take me by the braid down to my grave
