Lift up your candle dress
Unweave your nylon spine
In velvet and in onions
You will soon be mine
I am your humble servant
Madam as you see
Tonight I am determined
You will lie along with me
You are an insect mother
With a black shiny head
That parts your cloak to open
Human you upon the bed
You are an insect mother
I your jammy son
And now we've found each other
There is nowhere else to run
ย
Lift up your candle dress
Unweave your nylon spine
In velvet and in onions
You will soon be mine
