[Verse 1]
I gave a party, I said you could come
You showed up at your door, with all your leathers on
I said, "This must be wrong, it can't be right
How can you make love to me dressed up for a fight?
Pick me up off the floor
No more, 'cause you surely can't be mine"
[Verse 2]
Religion came almost overnight
You were the high priest, I was the sacrifice
I said, "This must be wrong, this can't be right
Take off your stupid robe and put down your knife
These ropes are getting tight
All right, you surely can't be mine"
[Verse 3]
I come home half dead late on a Saturday night
You stand on the bed and you tell me you're learning to fly
I said, "Take off your boots, take off your cape
Throw away your long johns, I ain't no Lois Lane
Before I get my kryptonite
All right, 'cause you surely can't be mine"
[Verse 4]
I was ready for love, big brass bed and all
I was ready for love, You said, "Let's talk about the war"
I said, "What war? What war? Take off your clothes
And don't you worry me no more
I ain't no fly by night
All right, you surely can't be mine"
