There's a heat in the pavement, my Mercury's raising Don't know if it's love or if it's ovulation When you're holding a hammer Everything looks like a nail The mist from the fountain is kissing my neck The liquid crystal is in my grip Anyone with a snake tongue I show 'em the chambers of my heart Now, I know you don't deal much in love and affection But I really do think there could be a connection I burn, and I sing, and I scheme, and I dance Some days I'm a woman, some days I'm a man, oh I might have been born again I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers There's peace in the madness over our heads Let it carry me o-o-o-o-on Huh-ah-ah Huh-ah-ah Huh-ah-ah Today, I'll go to Canal Street, they're piercing my ears I'm making a wish when the needle goes in Take an aura picture, read it and tell me who I am (Show me who I am) Now, I know you don't deal much in love and affection But I really do think you can make an exception It's a beautiful life, so I play truant I jerk tears and they pay me to do it, oh I might have been born again I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers There's peace in the madness over our heads Let it carry me o-o-o-o-on Huh-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah Huh-uh-ah Huh-ah-ah Huh-ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Huh-ah-ah Let it break me down till I'm just a wreck Till I'm just a voice living in your head (huh-ah-ah) It's a fucked-up world, been to hell and back But I've sent you a postcard from the edge The edge Mmm Mm, mm, mm
