We're crushin' velvet
And it's all night
When I hold her
There's no other

I'm her satellite
Just like the hissing
Of a land mine
Before it blows, you're gonna know

It was a glamorous lie
She's my lover
She's my lover
She's my lover
She's my lover

And what is heaven but a con, though?
In the attic with the static
I'm a prince and all's well
So take your heaven off to bed now

I'm a seven come eleven
Each and every night
She's my lover
She's my lover
She's my lover
She's my lover
