Shock On The Tube (Don't Want Love) |
| I was travelling home on the subway |
| When this vision got on at Maida Vale |
| And as I casually eyed the classifieds |
| She sat down next to me |
| Every head in the carriage was wondering |
| I replied with a smile on my face |
| And as I slipped into the arms of Morpheus |
| To daydream the rest of the way |
| She was a smooth operator |
| You could see it in her dress |
| I said I’d like to see you later |
| But I didn’t want to press |
| I was homing like a scanner |
| Did a mental strip tease |
| But she knew that she was special |
| And she came on like a tease |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
| Not looking for tenderness |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
| She was a headstrong woman |
| With a demon in her blood |
| Through the window in her eyes |
| I saw fire in her soul |
| And I knew if I pursued it |
| My fingers would be burned |
| Like a moth round a candle |
| I was momentarily stunned |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
| Not looking for tenderness |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
| The carriage was spinning |
| We were up on the floor |
| She was whirling like a dervish |
| I was whirling like a fool |
| My reactions were dimming |
| Like an alcoholic haze |
| I could hear people clapping |
| I was stumbling in a daze |
| I was stumbling in a daze |
| My eyes tried to focus |
| I was suddenly aware |
| She was newborn naked |
| I was altogether bare |
| There were shouts all around us |
| There were clothes on the floor |
| As I tried to find my senses |
| I was sliding down the door |
| Down a coal black tunnel |
| I was slipping away |
| Then I felt the water hit me |
| And I heard somebody say |
| Better get yourself together |
| This is the end of the line |
| When I looked for my woman |
| I’d been dreaming all the time |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
| Not looking for tenderness |
| Don’t want love |
| Just looking for happiness |
| Don’t want love |
