(The summer   this could be the cool part of the summer)

 The sloe eyed creature in the reckless room she's so severe
 A wise child walks right out of here

 I'm so excited I can barely cope
 I'm sizzling like an isotope
 I'm on fire so cut me some slack

 CHORUS:
 First she's way gone then she comes back
 She's all business then she's ready to play
 She's almost gothic in a natural way

 This house of desire is built foursquare
 (The city - the cleanest kitten in the city)

 When she speaks it's like the slickest song I ever heard
 I'm hanging on her every word
 As if I'm not already blazed enough
 She hits me with the cryptic stuff
 That's her style - to jerk me around

 CHORUS:
 First she's all feel then she cools down
 She's pure science with a splash of black cat
 She's almost gothic and I like it like that

 This dark place so thrilling and new
 It's kind of like the opposite of an aerial view
 Unless I'm totally wrong
 I hear her rap and brother it's strong

 I'm pretty sure that what she's telling me is mostly lies
 But I just stand there hypnotized

 I'll just have to make it work somehow
 I'm in the amen corner now
 It's called love - I spell L -U- V

 CHORUS:
 First she's all buzz then she's noise-free
 She's bubbling over then there's nothing to say
 She's almost gothic in a natural way

 She's old school then she's like young
 Little Eva meets the Bleecker Street brat
 She's almost gothic but it's better than that
