lyrics

I have a feeling that beneath the little halo on your noble head
There lies a thought or two the devil might be interested to know
You're like the finish of a novel that I'll finally have
to take to bed
You fascinate me so

I feel like Christopher Columbus when I'm near
enough to contemplate
The sweet geography descending from your
eyebrow to your toe
The possibilities are more than I can
possibly enumerate
That's why you fascinate me so

So sermonize and preach to me
Make sure your sanctimonious little speech to me

But oh my darling, you'll forgive my inability
to concentrate
I think I'm dealing with a powder keg that's just
about to blow
Will the end result deflate me or will you
annihilate me?
You fascinate me so

You aggravate me
You irritate me
You fascinate me so!
