Is This What You Wanted |
| You were the promise at dawn |
| I was the morning after |
| You were Jesus Christ, my Lord |
| I was the money lender |
| You were the sensitive woman |
| I was the very reverend Freud |
| You were the manual orgasm |
| I was the dirty little boy |
| And is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| Is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| You were Marlon Brando |
| I was Steve McQueen |
| You were K-Y Jelly |
| I was Vaseline |
| You were the father of modern medicine |
| I was Mr. Clean |
| You were the Whore and the Beast of Babylon, |
| I was Rin Tin Tin |
| And is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| And is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| You got old and wrinkled |
| I stayed seventeen |
| You lusted after so many |
| I lay here with one |
| You defied your solitude |
| I came through alone |
| You said you could never love me |
| I undid your gown |
| And is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| And is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| I mean, is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house that is haunted |
| By the ghost of you and me? |
| That’s right, is this what you wanted |
| To live in a house |
