MEATLOVE-PARADISE BY THE DASHBOARD-LIGHT
Boy:
I remember every little thing, As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake, And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl, Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school, They were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight!, C'mon! Hold on tight!
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Girl:
Ain't no doubt about it, We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen, And we were barely dressed
Ain't no doubt about it, Baby got to go and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it, We were doubly blessed
Boy:
Cause we were barely seventeen, And we were barely dressed
Baby doncha hear my heart, You got it drowning out the radio
I've been waiting so long, For you to come along and have some fun
And I gotta let ya know, No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surprise, It'll feel all right
Well I wanna make your motor run
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight! C'mon! Hold on tight!
Though it's cold and lonley in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can, And let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it, We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen, And we were barely--
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go allt he way, An tonight's the night...
II. Let Me Sleep On It

III. Praying for the End of Time
Boy:
I couldn't take it any longer, Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me, Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!!!
Boy:
It was long ago and it was far away
and it was so much better than it is today
Girl:
It never felt so good
It never felt so right
And we were glowing like
A metal on the edge of a knife |
