Covered in you, covered in you Coming a bit unscrewed Covered in you, covered in you Feeling a bit unglued
I need a place to calm me down, but this town is so noisy I need to drown my troubles somewhere, you're my love You're the coat I can't take off, I'm aware of your affairs And your perfume I can't shake off, I can never break off The memory that's following me like a shadow I'm always dreamin' of your skin so soft And ya hit me in the chest with your arrow, in my marrow You're painted on my body all silver and gold And purple and pink and your brain stone cold This never gets old
Covered in you, covered in you Coming a bit unscrewed Covered in you, covered in you Feeling a bit unglued What can I do, what can I do? I'm coming a bit unglued
Yeah
Listen, I wake up sick and tired of all these autocrats You know they seem to be breeding like a swarm of dirty rats With their missiles on parade And they're wreathed in gold brocade Opposition plays charades, they must always be obeyed You know I'm gonna wait 'til the panic passes Wait till you see the whites of their asses Me and you were separated like Korea There's so many knots we can't undo, we can't untie You're always trying to give me bad reviews
Covered in you, covered in you Coming a bit unscrewed Covered in you, covered in you Feeling a bit unglued Smothered in blue, smothered in blue Coming a bit unscrewed Covered in you, covered in you Feeling a bit abused
You were born on my doorstep, that's no coincidence It all makes perfect sense, you know it's true 'Cause I'm covered in you, upset my equilibrium Make me take way too much lithium So goodbye, lover, wish me luck I'm gonna vanish down the highway in my truck 'Cause I couldn't really give a monkey's
Covered in you, covered in you Coming a bit unscrewed Covered in you, covered in you Feeling a bit abused Smothered in blue, smothered in blue Feeling a bit unglued
You were born on my doorstep, that's no coincidence It all makes perfect sense, you know it's true Covered in you, 'cause I'm covered in you What can I do? Covered in you, bent out of skew Coming a bit unglued Smothered in blue, broke the taboos Coming a bit unscrewed
