lyrics

We’re here at the party, our key at the door
A chance to see what we can be
No fear of going back for more
The rules of engagement
We nod and agree.
These steps we take will make or break
Our cotton wool reality

Those things you said you’d never do
(I hear you like it. Oh! You never tried it)
It’s like your inner self is now awake
The kids are fast asleep at home
(No need to worry, no, not in a hurry)
Collective wails, no way they can be faked

We finally did this
No longer a joke
The taste is sweet
The body heat and appetite begin to grow
The next invitation, we patiently wait
Foundations of this life we built
They shatter and disintegrate

Those things you said you’d never do
(I hear you like it. Oh! You never tried it)
It’s like your inner self is now awake
The kids are fast asleep at home
(No need to worry, no, not in a hurry)
Collective wails, no way they can be faked

We’ll make up a signal, if it all gets too much
Some couples just watch and never touch...

Those things you said you’d never do
(I hear you like it. Oh! You never tried it)
It’s like your inner self is now awake
The kids are fast asleep at home
(No need to worry, no, not in a hurry)
Collective wails, no way they can be faked
