80 Million Bacteria In A Kiss
Sat upon the lion's head
We gave ourselves so readily
The poison coursing through our veins
We'd bolted down so hungrily
Lips colliding like continents, the bacilli under scrutiny
80 million became you and me
Darling
My toxin
Swimming inside me
Darling
Your crustacean claws still infect me
Now sprawled upon the blackened beach
The heat has stripped our flesh away
Gathering up our sun-bleached bones
We still make love anyway
Sunlight cools to darkness
Flesh dissolves to dirt
80 million - it was you and me
Darling
My soul, my sin
Swimming inside me
Darling
Your moon white teeth constrict me
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
Aaaah-ah....
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
80, 80 million, 80, 80 million
Aaaah-ah....
