About

The first single from Midnite Vultures, “Sexx Laws” is a triumphant anthem of defiance against societal preconceptions of what men and women are expected to be.

Sexx Laws Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't you hear those cavalry drums
Hijacking your equilibrium?
Midnight snacks in the mausoleum
Where the pixilated doctors moan
Carnivores in the Kowloon night
Breathing Freon by the candlelight
Coquettes bitch slap you so polite
'Til you thank them for the tea and sympathy (Ogh-ah)

[Chorus]
I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I'm a full-grown man
But I'm not afraid to cry

[Verse 2]
Neptune's lips taste like fermented wine
Perfumed blokes on the Ginza line
Running buck wild like a concubine

[Chorus]
I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I'm a full-grown man
But I'm not afraid to cry

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Chorus]
I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I'm a full-grown man
But I'm not afraid to cry
