Decided 
                              
To sneak up away from your stomach 
And try your pulse 

And captured 
                             
What seemed all unknowing and candid 
But they suspected it was false 

(same chords)
She's playful 
The boring would warn you be careful 
Of her brigade 
In order to tame this relentless marauder 
Move away from the parade 

                                            
And she was walking on the tables in the glass house 
Endearingly bedraggled in the wind 
Subtle in her method of seduction 
The twenty little tragedies begin 

(same chords)
And she would throw a feather boa in the road 
If she thought that it would set the scene 
Unfittingly dipped into your companions 
Enlighten them to make you see 


And there's affection to rent 
                    
The age of the understatement 

Before the attraction ferments 
                      
Kiss me properly and pull me apart 

(same chords)
Affection to rent the age of the understatement 
Before this attraction ferments 
Kiss me properly and pull me apart 

           
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 

                     
And my fingers scratch at my hair 
                          
Before my mind can get too reckless 
The idea of seeing you here 
Is enough to make the sweat grow cold
