Lyrics

She may contain the urge to run away
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
Citrezene your fever’s gripped me again
Never kisses all you ever send are full stops, la la la la

Do you know where the wilds things go
They go along to take your honey, la la la la
Break down now, weep build up breakfast now
Let’s eat my love, my love, love, love, la la la la

Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
The fear has gripped me but here I go
My heart sinks as I jump up
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
Ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah, ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah

Do you know where the wild things go
They go along to take your honey, la la la la
Break down, let’s sleep, build up, breakfast now
Let’s eat, my love, my love, love, love, la la la la

She bruises coughs, she splutters, pistol shots
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
She’s morphine queen of my vaccine
My love, my love, love, love, la la la la

Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
The fear has gripped me but here I go
My heart sinks as I jump up
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
And ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah, ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah
Ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah, ahhh ahhh ahhh ah ah

She may contain the urge to run away
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
Germaline disinfect the scene, my love, my love, love, love
But please don’t go, I love you so, my lovely
Please don’t go, please don’t go, I love you so, I love you so
Please don’t go, please don’t go, I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart, hey

Please don’t go, please don’t go, I love you so, I love you so
Please don’t go, please don’t go, I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart, ah ha

Please don’t go, I’ll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you, so I love you so
Please don’t go I’ll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so, I love you so, I love you so
