(I'd Like To) Volunteer, Please

(album: Vinyl - 1991)

She walks in with the sweet, makes them kiss her feet
Now her scene's complete
She's fixing violent hose, everybody knows
How she'll play with those
I'd like to get in line, get in line, get in line please

Squeezed into neon lime
Looks and smells like crime
I could do some time
Dancing the way I feel
Cry like a parent
I got my nerves of steel
But I'm so transparent

I run when she gives the cattle call
Run and fetch her ball, be her wall to wall
I'm on the third brigade
Now I've got it made standing in her shade
She's bending someone's ear
I'd like to volunteer, volunteer, volunteer, please

And buy the bar a beer, spread some X-mas cheer
Teach me how to steer
Dancing the way I feel
Try like a surgeon
I've got my nerves of steel
Nothing is that urgent

She goes La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La

She hadn't looked so sad, think of all we had
Guess it ain't so bad
Now watch her body shake
Love that chocolate cake like she used to bake
She's not my Valentine
I'm getting out of line, out of line, out of line please

Squeezed into neon lime
So she's passed her prime, working overtime
Dancing the way that I feel
Die like a villain
I've got my nerves of steel
But she's not worth killing

She goes La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
