Love Bomb - Grinderman

I read the book from back to front

It made a deep impression

Twenty thousand pages baby

I hoped for some direction

I stood before the mirror

I stared at my reflection

I’d almost disappeared

And I made no impression

I went down to my baby’s house

And I sat down on the step

Said 2000 years of Christian history baby

And you ain’t learned to love me yet

My baby looked me in the eye

My nails were bitten to the quick

She said you used to love me all night long

But you’ve gotten so thin and sick

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I read that book from back to front

Looking for some inspiration

I’d been listening to the radio

Trying to find some self expression

I been listening to the woman’s hour

I been listening to Gardeners Question Time

But every thing I try to grow

I can’t even grow a dandelion

I’ve been watching the MTV

I’ve been watching the BBC

And I’ve been searching on the Internet

And I’m getting so thin and sick

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I went to my baby’s house

And I sat down on the step

Yeah I went down to my baby’s house

And I lay down on the step

She said what are you doing here

I said I been trying to make some sense

But every action that I take

Is of absolutely no fucking consequence

My baby said you can sit there

She reached down with her fingers

Her fingers went right through me

(I screamed my head off)

I was so thin and sick

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I’m gonna send you a love bomb

I’m gonna send you a love bomb
