Opium Girl

OPIUM GIRL (VERSE 1) Think what you want but please understand She's a desert flower drifting with the sand if you knew the reason she's making love with you You wouldn't want her to. Desert Girl. (VERSE 2) Take what you want then leave her alone She's a desert flower every man has known If you knew the reason she's making love with you You wouldn't want her to. Desert Girl. (CHORUS 1) She's just here looking for someone she's never known She'll take you with her so she won't sleep alone Out in the desert and she's had it all planned Puttin you to sleep with one touch of her hand. (VERSE 3) Take what you want but please understand She's a desert flower drifting with the sand If you knew the reason she's making love with you You wouldn't want her to. Desert Girl. (CHORUS 2) She'll feed you opium and citrus juice all night She'll make you think everything is alright Then to the desert for the rest of her plan When she's done she'll bury you in the desert sand. (Epilogue) If you knew the reason she's making love with you. You wouldn't want her to. Desert Girl.
