lyrics

She got jeans(genes) tailor-made for trouble
Stealin' skin-tight scenes
All the takes are gettin' doubled
She's on high beam
Scannin' night-time rubble
She digs up dreams
Like a hot steam-shovel
Like a hot steam-shovel

She got needs
And she want em on the double
She got deeds and they're
none too subtle
Her white-hot heat
Make an iron will buckle
She got means
Like a high-speed shuttle
Like a high-speed shuttle

Well you can feel it gettin' late
All the coffers are empty
You can hear her crying poor
But you know she's got plenty
She could draw blood
From those rolling-stone clones
Even if they think they're
happy on their own
But she dont want blood
She want precious metal
She'll keep on digging
The dust never settles
The stakes get high
Now she's caught my eye
But there's no gold left
In this heart of mine

She got moves
Like a diamond cutter
She got groove
But she keeps it under cover
Her golden seams
Make you st-st-st-st-stutter
Her precious heart
Got a high speed shutter

Music based paradigm subversion. ... more
