Red Tornado

Twisted like the strings of a puppet lover
Pull back the shade, I can see your figure
Keep affections wrapped and muffled
Like the sound that ascends from the wrinkled covers

Rollin' in the throes with a red tornado
I say "I'll let you go honey if I'm able"
Summer in the heat, have the sense to tell me
But before you can taste, spill the coffee over

Cupid shoots you, right back of the head
Cupid shoots you, right out of my head

I don't want to fight when it could be over

Honey, we're the same in an open orbit
Tear apart machine with a wrench an' socket
Bit by bit you can pull and twist it
Till it knots the nerve and you know you've done it

I go with the sun wherever it might take me
Shooting in the shade, you can be my army
I don't want to fight with a former lover
But when bombs are bursting, you're taking cover

Don't know what to say

Cupid shoots you, right back of the head
Cupid shoots you, right out of my head
