I found a girl with a pretty face
I tied a rope around her waist
I know when she's in and when

She runs away but not very far
Just push a button - retractable cord
I pull her back when i get bored
One word from her and she'd be free
But she's exactly where she wants to be
Magnetic Madonna she glows in the night
Reciprocal pull, i flow to her light
Woman i am bound to you
But what do i want to do?
Woman what do i want?
