Beck - Sexx Laws Lyrics

Beck Lyrics

"Sexx Laws"

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

I wanna defy the logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperoned at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry...

Neptune's lips taste like fermented wine
Perfumed blokes on the Ginza line
Running buck wild like a concubine
Who's mother never held her hand

Brief encounters in Mercedes Benz
Wearing hepatitis contact lens
Bed and breakfast getaway weekends
With sports illustrated moms

I wanna defy the logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperoned at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry...

I wanna defy the logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperoned at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry...

Beck explained the horn usage by saying, "I think my main interest in using the horns was for performance - so much music today is so guitar heavy. I sought other places to get muscle into the music."
