Billy Bragg - The Warmest Room lyrics

A rainy afternoon

Spent in the warmest room

She lay before me and said

Yes it's true that I have seen some naked men

As she made for the door

Leaving me on the floor

I wish I'd done biology

For an urge within me wanted to do it then

Chorus:

And here she comes again

And I'm sitting on my hands

And she sings to me that siren song

Here she comes again and I'm biting my lip

But it won't be long

As Brother Barry said

As he married Marion

The wife has three great attributes

Intelligence, a Swiss army knife and charmBut that's not enough sometimes

And she did speak her mind

And told them all that she believed

The only way to disarm is to disarm

I know people whose idea of fun

Is throwing stones in the river in the afternoon sun

Oh let me be as free as them

Don't let her pass this way again

Though you cannot be blamed

But I've become inflamed

With thoughts of lust and thoughts of power

Thoughts of love and thoughts of Chairman Mao

We have such little time

At your place or mine

I can't wait till we take our blood tests

Oh baby let's take our blood tests now
