The Fear

The Fear

It was something cool

Something bright

I had the fear in the middle of the night

Tore a page from a cooking book

It had a map to a Moroccan souk

Shame on me

Shame on you

You turned a lovely shade of blue

I got the fear now

I got the fear now

A bottle of wine and Turkish cigarettes

Your silky stockings and fine fishnets

I got the fear now

Gimme the fear now

A comet has landed on my door

I see the sheriff wagging like a whore

Shame on us

A shame to bear

We'll be locked up

Put rightin care

I got the fear now

Gimme the fear now

Liars, thieves and politicans

Kama Sutra in 20 positions

Gimme the fear now

I got the fear now

I have a crooked house

And a crooked bed

Mystical people in my head

I got the fear now

I got the fear now

Gimme the fear now

Gimme a beer now

I got the fear now

Gimme a beer now

I got the anger chased by rage

Actors up there right on stage

I am going downtown to get me some thrills

If I can make it through life's chills and spills

Gimme a beer now
