Expert lover, my baby
You ever had a Crystal Ball?
Expert lover, my baby
You ever had a Crystal Ball?
Ooh, expert lover, my baby
Ever had a Crystal Ball?
Expert lover, my baby
You ever had a Crystal Ball?
[Verse 1]
As bombs explode around us and hate advances on the right
The only thing that matters, baby, is the love that we make Tonight
As little babies in make-up terrorize the western world
The only thing that matters, baby, is love between a boy and girl
[Chorus]
Oh, expert lover, my baby
You ever had a Crystal Ball?
Undercover, no maybe
All for fun and fun for all
[Verse 2]
I can't remember my baby's voice because she ain't talking no more
Only the sound of love and prayer echo from the yellow floor
Yellow floor
Huh, she's saying:
"Dear Jesus, save us from temptation
Dear Jesus, save us from hell
Save us from the madness that threatens us all
Can you hear us? It's hard to tell
In your name we pray"
[Chorus]
Oh, expert lover, my baby
You ever had a Crystal Ball?
Undercover, no maybe
All for fun and fun for all

As soldiers draw swords of sorrow
My baby draws pictures of sex (Yes, she does)
All over the walls in graphic detail: sex
[Chorus]
Everybody say it now
Expert lover, huh, my baby
Ever had a Crystal Ball?
Under... undercover, ha, no maybe
All for fun and fun for all
