Rabid (Over You) (CD Reissue Bonus Track)

(album: Machine Gun Etiquette - 1979)

I read about a bug eyed mad dog
Taking London in a storm
I heard about a blue eyed heroine
Screaming out for help
I held my breath as ten claws
Came through the cabin door
And timing forces slipped a cross
The traitor's sticky core

I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space

I heard about a great new movie
That took the world by storm
People said the effects were groovy
The plot was personal
The garbage was whiter than white
The villain mostly dark
The hero was enlightened by light
Dogs began to bark

I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space

You treat me like a dog
Give me a bone to chew
Frothing at the mouth
Frothing all over you
Yeah I get rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you

Your daddy's got a gun
He's gonna put me down
Compliments of public health
Horror teenage town
Yeah I've been bitten over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you

Rabid rabid rabid

I can't stand the rain (rabid)
Water on the brain (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
I just gotta hide (rabid)
I wanna bite (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you

I can't stand the rain (rabid)
Water on the brain (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
We just gotta hide (rabid)
I wanna bite (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
