Lyrics Sigurdsson, Björk: Virus - Renée Fleming, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Sakari Oramo

Sigurdsson, Björk: Virus

Like a virus needs a body
As soft tissue feeds on blood
Some day I’ll find you, the urge is here
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Like a mushroom on a tree trunk
As the protein transmutates
I knock on your skin, and I am in
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
The perfect match, you and me
I adapt, contagious
You open up, say welcome
Like a flame that seeks explosives
As gunpowder needs a war
I feast inside you, my host is you
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
The perfect match, you and I
You fail to resist
My crystalline charm
Like a virus, patient hunter
I’m waiting for you, I’m starving for you
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
My sweet adversary, ooh
My sweet adversary, oh
My sweet adversary
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
