lyrics

GOD-SHAPED HOLE

Let me tell you little something what is going on inside me.
Yes he was penniless playing on the interest,
Should have stayed in school.
Darling, is it true what they say about you?
Aren’t you going to let me in, sit me at your dinner table?
Give me my choice of wine, slip into more comfortable.
You look alright.
Lady, is it true what they say about you?
She got a god-shaped hole.
Feels like I’m about to lose my soul.
She wanna fill that space
With a member of the human race.

Kissing on a Sunday, leaving on a Monday.
Isn’t this the way to spend a rainy day
And a rainy night?
Sweetheart, is it true what they say about you?
You don’t even have to say. You give it all away.
Take me by the hand down to shantytown,
And give us the key.
Darlin’, is it true what they say about you?
She got a god-shaped hole.
Feels like I’m about to lose control.
She want ta fill that space
With a member of the human race.

Mmmm, this has been a long time comin’.
Tell you true.
Uh-huh.
Woah yeah,
MOTHERFUCKIN’ ALLRIGHT!
She’s got a god-shaped hole.
Seems like she’s about to take my soul.
She want ta fill that space
With a member of the human race.

Tell me why
This bantam take no jive.
Lay it on me…pace your mind.
In about time you’ll be mine.
It wouldn’t do bein’ rover space,
Taking a bop in a rollerlake.
You left me without a choice.
One two three four
Knockin’ on your back door.
She’s got a god shaped hole.
Feel like I'm about ta lose my soul.
She wants ta fill that space
With a member of the human race.
How…
How does it feel?
