Lyrics

[Verse 1: Anthony Kiedis] She's only eighteen, don't like the Rolling Stones She took the shortcut to being fully grown She's got that mood ring, a little sister rose A smell of Springsteen, a pair of pantyhose [Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] This talking picture show is leaking from a silhouette She said, "My man, you know, it's time to get your fingers wet" Your hustle's busted when you can't afford a cigarette The last I heard from you, you were screaming "Handle it!" [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Knock the world, right off its feet and straight onto its head The book of love will long be laughing after you are dead Fascinated by the look of you and what was said Make a play for all the brightest minds and light will shed [Verse 2: Anthony Kiedis] I heard some P-Funk out on the road again To get your head shrunk is what I recommend It's in your bloodline, a perfect Frankenstein Out on that lone pine, I'm going to make you mine [Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] It's understood, you wrapped your voodoo right around my neck You've got some glitter on your kitty at the discotheque I put my loving in your oven not a head to check The last I heard from you, you were screaming "Resurrect!" [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Knock the world, right off its feet and straight onto its head The book of love will long be laughing after you are dead Fascinated by the look of you and what was said Make a play for all the brightest minds and light will shed (Uhh) [Guitar Solo: John Frusciante, Anthony Kiedis] Haha! [Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante] Knock the world, right off its feet and straight onto its head The book of love will long be laughing after you are dead Fascinated by the look of you and what was said Make a play for all the brightest minds and light will shed
