A Kick to Kill the Kiss

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] He'd like you to call him lucky The original self-made man; No sense of wide-screen vision No gender strangeness he can understand [Verse 2] He roll on the old, old story You can call it original sin; Yeah, stamp that one in his passport Paste it and colour it in [Pre-Chorus] Colour in a history of pride and prejudice; What he wants is mystery, but what he gets is this: [Chorus] A kick to kill the kiss A kick to kill the kiss (Now) A kick to kill the kiss [Verse 3] He thinks it fair competition Somehow having and eating the cake When the women are in their bodies And the men are all over the place [Pre-Chorus] What he wants is Paradise, of which he has no clue What he wants: Oblivion. ("…Baby, all I want is you.") What he wants and what he needs are very different tricks… Got some strange philosophy through going for that dictionary tic And the kick of kiss-me-quick [Chorus] A kick to kill the kiss [Outro] And he says "Baby, all I want is you."
