"Power" lyrics

"Power"

Oh pretty baby, when you say my name
Kick off my shoes inside of my head
Feel my shadow, how it says your name
Walking like a roller-coaster made of sin
Wanna make you scream, wanna make you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Run your fingers through my hair
Engine's overheating, gasoline in the air
Cadillac's wagon ain't got no soul
Frame born of fire and out of control
Listen to the motor scream and shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Headlights shining on a broken road
Sun's going down baby, I gotta get home
Your wheels are spinning underneath my thighs
Wanna taste your tongue, look me in the eyes
Wanna make you scream, wanna hear you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Burning my hands in the fire
Burning my eyes in the fire
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
I'm burning up, I'm burning up in the fire

I said oh pretty baby, when you say my name
Kick off my shoes inside of my head
Feel my shadow, how it says your name
Walking like a roller-coaster made of sin
Wanna make you scream, wanna make you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out
Hands all shaking and the power is out
