Atomic Number

I'm not the freckled mare
I'm not the fair-haired girl
I'm not a pail of milk for you to spoil

Why are the wholesome things
The ones we make obscene?

Latin words across my heart
Symbols of infinity
Elements so pure
Atomic number

I am the spark
Of this machine
Purring like the city bus

Why are the wholesome things
The ones we make obscene?
Well if your mercy's lost
I have an offer: us

Latin words across my heart
Symbols of infinity
Elements so pure
Atomic number

Latin words across my heart
Symbols of infinity
Elements so pure
Atomic number

My atomic number
My atomic number
My atomic number
