We all get lonely
Either you or I or both must go
Either you or I or both must go
It's arrhythmic, uninvitin' and pliable
With the noble irreverence of shrapnel she came for us
Baby, return the favor and leave somebody you love
One take is all we need, we're not equipped to stay unloved
Never minded the faithless courage of shame
Bedroom door is an old black lung
When I'm on her mind, I'm never comin' back
Or the exactin' improvement of sin
Naturally bored thriller
I know the stripper's real name, I know the stripper's real name
But it's all we've got and we're not at all alright
Two timin' is what it takes then we both know
There's no difference between bein' holy and alone
Just the tempest, the temptress and me
So here's to the empires polluted with dead
Come on, give me the creeps, give me the creeps
Come on baby, give me the creeps, give me the creeps
One take is all we need, we're not equipped to stay unloved
I'm handin' myself over, I'm turnin' myself in
When I'm on her mind, I'm never comin' back
Two timin' is what it takes then we both know
What if they come back, they're drunk and they're lonely?
That's why I'm eagerly fleein' the scene, lead footed
I know the stripper's real name, I know the stripper's real name
Nobody knows the trouble I've been
But it's all we've got and we're not at all alright
Or the bravery of oblivion
God forbid, we indulge when at sea
And the truckers' wives who erected them
War has no glory like a woman ignored
Bore into our heads and found thoughtlessness
