Heat shimmer
Hips quiver
Open smother
Lipped lover

Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N
Little did I know then that the Mandela boys
Soon become Mandela men
Razor blades on a melted toothbrush
Assassin de la police

Heat shimmer
Silky glistener
Open smother
Lipped lover

Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N
Little did I know then that the Mandela boys
Soon become Mandela men
Silent knife, unholy knife
I've fallen for the black outside my window

On the C-O-double M-O-N
On the C-O-double M-O-N
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart (quelea, quelea)

And I won't admit I loved you
And that I will lie for you
And I've waited, waited for you
Here, wait in front of you
Oh my body lays down to yours
My eyes will close for you
And the world will tremble, too
Keep waiting for you
