Lyrics

[Intro] Centipede Centipede [Verse 1] Your love is like a raging fire, oh You're a snake that's on the loose The strike is your desire But when the centipede is hot You're bound to feel the fire And when the centipede is hot You're bound to feel the fire [Verse 2] I feel, oh, yeah, a longing for your touch Like you crawled into the bathroom window To give him all your love Like a centipede that's hot The fire is in your touch Like a centipede, you've got A lot of loving to touch [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know in the quiet of the night When the snake is in the crawling And the moon starts to glow, then disappears? When the time is really right Is when the centipede is crawling You'll be crying in the night, so many tears Now you're crawling like a centipede [Chorus] Centipede [Verse 3] You came, ooh, to strike him with your love Like you crawled into the bathroom window To bite him with your love Like a centipede that's hot The fire is in your touch Just like a centipede, you've got A lot of loving to touch [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know in the quiet of the night When the snake is in the crawling And the moon starts to glow, then disappear? When the time is really right Is when the centipede is crawling You'll be crying in the night, so many tears Now you're crawling like a centipede [Chorus] Centipede [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] In the quiet of the night (Oh, yeah, yeah) When the snake is in the crawling And the moon starts to glow, then disappear When the time is really right (Like a centipede) Is when the centipede is crawling You'll be crying in the night, so many tears Now you're crawling like a centipede [Chorus] Centipede [Verse 4] Your heart, oh, is full of strange desire You're the heat of a summer's night A centipede on fire When the centipede is hot You're bound to feel the fire Like a beast about to strike The centipede's on fire [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know, in the quiet of the night When the snake is in the crawling And the moon starts to glow, then disappear? When the time is really right Is when the centipede is crawling You'll be crying in the night, so many tears (Centipede) [Pre-Chorus] In the quiet of the night when the snake is in the crawling And the moon starts to glow, then disappear (Yeah, like a centipede) Like a centipede When the time is really right (Yeah...) Is when the centipede is crawling You'll be crying in the night, so many tears Now you're crawling like a centipede [Chorus] Centipede Centipede Centipede
