Adult Books Lyrics
Many many guys and girls
All real beauties
Everybody making a stab
They hurt themselves
Singles rule the world
Feeding on fresh blood
One track eye
Below the belt
[Chorus]
All in a line
All in a line
They're all in a line
Like adult books
I don't understand
Jackie Susann meant it that way
Adult books
I don't understand
Jackie Susann meant it that way
Clifford shackles Jane
Throws her on the floor
She says, "No... no... YES"
And he cuts the chains
Do plenty people go for Tomata?
Yes, but he just goes for that special girl
Who says, "NO"
[Chorus]
All in a line
All in a line
They're all in a line
Like adult books
I don't understand
Jackie Susann meant it that way
Adult books
I don't understand
Jackie Susann meant it that way
