Lyrics
i went to the live nude cabaret, to see what i could see, and i saw the ladies dancing, and i guess that they saw me, neither did i vanquish, or surrender to desire, but what i saw revealed to me, was just more fuel on the fire, i've heard form follows function, and i think that must be true, especially when you think of, what the female form will do, its lines and shapes are everywhere, as if they follow me, repeating my own longing in everything i see, star of happiness, star of love, lead us to the shore, that only women hold the promise of, men would give them money, and men would give them gold, and shower them with promises, of luxury untold, and make their vessels of creation, the temples of our souls, ohhhhh let my people go, sea of loneliness, sea of love, carry me upon your endless depths, and bear my heart above, for i would give her money, and i would give her jewels, and lead her to the palace my imagination rules, and fashion from her nakedness, the innocence that's gone, gone as the time she's given the suffering of fools
