Kamikaze Lovers

(album: B - Z Sides (2003-2017) (In Rough Chronological Order) - 2019)

Fear, fear and coconut water is
And will always be my favourite blend of drink
So hurry up, happy hour must have its end
Just as our darkest hours must have their time to shrink

Twist your knife deep into me
We're different creatures with similar needs

Kamikaze lovers
Oh, kamikaze lovers
If we can't be kamikaze lovers
Then we can never be friends

There's wolves, wolves in the Hollywood Hills, you know
And I paid them for protection but forgot to tip
And so they scratched your name into my car
Now we're much too close to be driven apart

Kamikaze lovers
Oh, kamikaze lovers
If we can't be kamikaze lovers
Then we can never be friends
It was a pleasure to have met you
I know my family would approve
But if we can't be kamikaze lovers
Then I can never be, I can never be your friend

Your inseparable friend
And anyway, why would I shake your hand when I can shake your bed?
Twist the knife into me
Kamikaze lovers
If we can't be kamikaze lovers
Then how can we ever be friends?

Pleasure to have met you
I know my family would approve
But if we can't me kamikaze lovers
Then I can never be, I can never be your friend
