Love Is A Boombox
A long time ago
A storm ripped my heart
She's mean
But I'm letting you know
This is the end

Ooh, here in the dark, the taste is sweet
Out in the park off an unknown street
I've got to find what it is I like
The monster awaits for me tonight
You don't have to run when you've got that sweet gun
Just use it to blow when the night beats slow
You aim for my head, but hit your knees
Heaven will know what you mean to me

I'm the one that got my soul mocked

Hey you, evil motivator
Sucking on a Now and Later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud
Ooh ooh
Now I'm Darth Vader
Once was beat, but now it's later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud
Doo doo doo doo
Meet you up in the hills for cigarettes
Sinking your teeth into my neck
You kept me alive, I couldn't escape
Cos heaven was full, and hell can wait
You held my hand, I kissed your feet
I was a slave that you would beat
Had no strength to hit you back
You broke my heart and left me cracked
Without a name, I look for you

Hey you, evil motivator
Sucking on a Now and Later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud
Ooh ooh
Now I'm Darth Vader
Once was beat, but now it's later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud

Hey you, evil motivator
Sucking on a Now and Later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud
Ooh ooh
Now I'm Darth Vader
Once was beat, but now it's later
Love's a boombox, turn the fader loud
