Crimes of Passion
She's an all-night all-night rental
She's a rental Oriental
Suki-Lee
Oh her eyes yes her eyes
You better pass her by yes
Suki-Lee
Each night she crosses
Different borders mmmm
Each night she's someone's refugee
You'll pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Why not do it twice yeah yeah
She only works while the parrot's squawking
In the light of the TV talking
Suki-Lee
She undresses in the light of the TV
In the light of the TV squawking
Suki-Lee
She hears the preachers
Quoting from Solomon's psalms
She hears the news of terrorist bombs
You'll pay yes you'll pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Go on do it twice
Cracks in the mirror
Bombs in the moonlight
Those whims of vice
Just how much terror
Can one kiss entice
You will pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Why not do it twice
Sweet whims of vice
Just how much terror
Can one kiss entice
She's a rental Oriental
Suki-Lee
Oh her eyes yes her eyes
You better pass her by yes
Suki-Lee
Each night she crosses
Different borders mmmm
Each night she's someone's refugee
You'll pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Why not do it twice yeah yeah
She only works while the parrot's squawking
In the light of the TV talking
Suki-Lee
She undresses in the light of the TV
In the light of the TV squawking
Suki-Lee
She hears the preachers
Quoting from Solomon's psalms
She hears the news of terrorist bombs
You'll pay yes you'll pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Go on do it twice
Cracks in the mirror
Bombs in the moonlight
Those whims of vice
Just how much terror
Can one kiss entice
You will pay the price
If you do it once yeah
Why not do it twice
Sweet whims of vice
Just how much terror
Can one kiss entice
