Blue Alert" 
 
There's perfume burning in the air 
Bits of beauty everywhere 
Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt 
 
She comes so close 
You feel her then 
She tells you No and No again 
Your lip is cut on the edge of her pleated skirt 
Blue Alert 
 
Visions of her drawing near 
Arise, abide, and disappear 
You try to slow it down 
It doesn't work 
 
It's just another night I guess 
All tangled up in nakedness 
You even touch yourself 
You're such a flirt 
Blue Alert 
 
You know how nights like this begin 
The kind of knot your heart gets in 
Any way you turn is going to hurt 
 
There's perfume burning in the air 
Bits of beauty everywhere 
Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt 
Blue Alert 
 
She breaks the rules so you can see 
She's wilder than you'll ever be 
You talk religion but she won't convert 
 
Her body's twenty stories high 
You try to look away, you try 
But all you want to do is get there first 
Blue Alert 
 
You know how nights like this begin 
The kind of knot your heart gets in 
Any way you turn is going to hurt 
 
There's perfume burning in the air 
Bits of beauty everywhere 
Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt 
Blue Alert 
Blue Alert...
