From the recording Three Minute Man
Lyrics
Animal!
Dirty Animal!
Even I cannot believe this
It started with an innocent kiss
Mission Control -
System overload
Where this man has never been before
It’s greater than just wanting more it’s
Up in my room
The afternoon
I lay me down with this beautiful nightmare
Up in my room
I write this tune
So I won’t forget but her body won’t let me yet
Baltimore -
He shoots, he scores!
I sing it loud along the highway
I took my time but did it my way
You painted whores
Out on 24th
Will have to wait ‘til I am dead now
Now that I have gotten the lead out
Up in my room
The afternoon
I lay me down with this beautiful nightmare
Up in my room
I write this tune
So I won’t forget but her body won’t let me yet
