This house is like Russia, with eyes cold and gray.
You got me movin' in a circle. I dyed my hair red today.
I just want a little passion to hold me in the dark.
I know I've got some magic buried, buried deep in my heart, yeah.

But my priest says, "You ain't savin' no souls."
My father says, "You ain't makin' any money."
My doctors said, "You just took it to the limit."
And here I stand with this, a-sword in my hand.

You can say it one more time- what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time then-
Have a seat while I take to the sky, take to the sky.

My heart is like the ocean- it gets in the way.
So close to touching freedom, then I hear the guards call my name.

And my priest says, "You ain't savin' no souls." (Savin' no souls.)
And my father says, "You ain't makin' any money."
My doctors said, "You just took it to the limit."
And here I stand with this, a-sword in my hand.

You can say it one more time- what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time then-
Have a seat while I take to the sky, take to the sky.

If you don't like me just a little, well,
(There she is, she goes, she goes again,) (If you don't like me,)
Why do you hang around? (If you, if you don't like,)
(Wearing those purple panties.) (Do you mind?) (If you don't like me,)
If you don't like me just a little, well,
(There she is, she goes, she goes again,) (Do you mind?) (Do you mind?)
Why do you hang around? (Wearing her heart.)
If you don't like me just a little, well,
(There she is, she goes, there she goes again,) (Do you mind?) (Do you mind?)
Why do you... yes... (Why do you take it?)
(Take it. Take it. Take it. Take it. Take it.) Woh mmm... mmm oh.
This house is like Russia.

You can say it one more time. You can say it one more time.
You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time then-
Have a seat while I take to the sky.
Take to the sky (Oh hoh, sky, yeah).
Take to the sky (Oh hoh, sky, yeah).
Take to the sky (Oh hoh, sky, yeah).
Take to the sky (Oh hoh, sky).
