Leo drives his Mustang along ocean Boulevard
He works hard for his money
Spent it all on his car
Rents a one-room apartment that no one's ever seen
But he makes love on the back seat
To the girl of his dreams
She wears high heels and lycra
Shows off her curves
She did aerobics and surgery
Keep 'em well preserved
She thinks, this guy, Leo
Seems like he's got it all
He's got a job in the busines...
Not long ago, we?ve met while caring for the cage
I was scare but she said ?No worry, I?ll take care of it?
Would you mind grabbin? something to eat, afterward I asked
Sittin? down by the sushi bar we laughed past curfew
Three days later, awe at the turk she started feelin? down
I smiled ?n said no worry, come with me I?ll take care of it
Oooh really? Please just leave my world be, she said

A hundred thousand hearts a day
Are vacuumed in along these runways
In specks of iron from around the world
Drawn to the magnetism in this place
I've watched them land in the Heathrow haze
Through 'Nothing to Declare' into cars that speed away
I'm watching the aeroplanes comin' in
Waiting for a miracle
Watching the aeroplanes comin' in
Wonderin' if I'll see you again
Wonder if I'll see you aga...
You are the deep water
You are the thin ice
The edge of the high cliff
And the November fires
You are my church bells
And the silent early hours
You are the ghost I hear
Echo in the half-light
Ecstacy and heart failure
Trembling and pounding in the magic spell
You are my wild flower and my wishing well
The spinning cut crystal above my bed
that dazzles and jabs me
Indigo blue and postbox red
I...
I have an animal inside me
He sleeps during the day
But he kicks and ticks even when he's sleeping
Never completely goes away
And as the evening shadows stretch themselves
The animal begins to wake
Comes out to see what is for breakfast
He takes whatever he can take
He isn't murderous or wicked
Sometimes he's like a little child
But he's voracious and insatiable
He's self-destructive and he's ...
Wake up... and smell the beans
No ones gonna help you
What I mean is mean Mr. Mean's misdemeanours
I'm in it for me. What's in it for me, Venus?
Hold on to your wild heart
Or it'll take you to the desert
Sleep tight. The red sea rolls apart.
Mr. Moses sure steered clear of the roses
Cause you don't know chaos and you don't know pain
You don't know wonderful you don't know strange
You don't kno...
I'm so bored with you
It didn't take long
I hear all about you
Every day of the month
You sounded so in control of it
On Radio 1
But I don't believe you
And though they all seem to
And though they all scream for you
And though they all dream of you
Retro's out Jumble's in
You dinosaur thing
Afro's out Boneheads in
You dinosaur thing
Help us out Rag it all in
You dinosaur thing
