Karaoké Blue Alert Madeleine Peyroux

There's perfume burning in the air

Bits of beauty everywhere shrapnel flying soldier hit the dirt

She comes so close you feel her then she tells you no and no again

Your lip is cut on the edge of her pleated skirt blue alert

Visions of her drawing near arise abide and disappear

You try to slow it down it doesn't work

It's just another night I guess all tangled up in nakedness

You even touch yourself you're such a flirt

Blue alert

You know how nights like this begin

The kind of knot your heart gets in

Any way you turn is gonna hurt

There's perfume burning in the air bits of beauty everywhere

Shrapnel flying soldier hit the dirt blue alert

She breaks the rules so you can see she's wilder than you'll ever be

You talk religion but she won't convert

Her body's twenty stories high you try to look away you try

But all you wanna do is get there first blue alert

You know how nights like this begin

The kind of knot your heart gets in

Any way you turn is gonna hurt

There's perfume burning in the air bits of beauty everywhere

Shrapnel flying soldier hit the dirt
