Lyrics[]
I've been dreaming up a storm lately
I've been dreaming up a storm lately!
And the entire city is burning
Look! You can see the colors dancing around the flames like the inside of a mad jukebox.
Horny angels stalk the streets looking for a little damnation and wearing nothing but the red badge of love.
Motorcycles reproduce in nocturnal alleys, groaning with greasy pleasure.
And they've blown up the YWCA like a giant balloon and sent it out to sea full of screaming, lovely, lonely girls.
And if I fall asleep here tonight you better give me some asbestos sheets
'cause I've been sweating gasoline, my dreams are highly flammable
and there are parts of my body that just won't stop giving off sparks!
Stop me before I dream again!
Why must I be a teenager in love...?
