Lyrics

Cupid's Cheese

[Verse 1 : Jordan Rakei]

Gracious love is falling down

Down the flights of steps in Babylon

Cupid's aiming for the crown

Focusing upon the ready gone

[Chorus]

When a storm's in the street tonight

Love lays flat like a rag doll

Flesh gave possessions of the brain

When a storm's in the street tonight

Love lays flat like a rag doll

Flesh gave possessions of the brain

Possessions of the brain

[Chorus]

When a storm's in the street tonight

Love lays flat like a rag doll

Flesh gave possessions of the brain

When a storm's in the street tonight (oh tonight)

Love lays flat like a rag doll

Flesh gave possessions of the brain

Possessions of the brain

[Verse 2 : Ngaiire]

Eavesdrop, will become forever

Dance, with y'all

Under, alter praise, ancient statute union

Fortune teller making beggars out of love

Ungrateful living, weeping for the dead

[Instrumental Outro]
