Like a stroke, like a comet, like a burning shell shot from a 45
She appeared, she inspired, took control of my body, took control of my mind
As quickly as she came she was gone.
Tore out my heart from whence it came from
Y’see, love is a fool, so the bible says, seek the devil from where he treads, love is a fool so the bible says, walk with the sun above your head

I feel like I’ve died, now it’s over
She didn’t say why when she’s colder
Her mother came round trying to please me
I held her without feeling queasy

Back off girl, I’m out of bounds, keep away you’re safer there

I saw her in town, up in Caesars
Dressed pretty hot, trying to tease us
She told me she heard that I was dead
May as well be back in my bed

Back off girl, I’m out of bounds, keep away you’re safer there
love is a fool so the bible says, walk with the sun above your head

Back off girl, I’m out of bounds, keep away you’re safer there
Love is a fool so the bible says, walk with the sun above your head
