Lyrics

Jane Describes John

John

You have an uncompromising way

Of making everything I say sound

Sexual

I sometimes laugh

I guess it's funny

But it scares me

John

You have a quite uncanny way

Of feeling no pain and everyday actions

Sexual

Does it hurt to be hurt?

Painkiller

Against

A

Monster
