You give me double vision, strange transmission When you walk in the room Tongue tied feeling, can't see the ceiling You've turned out the moon Tell me, darling, what you're trying to do You give me double vision, strange condition When you act that way I'm walking sideways, my nights become days But I feel okay Tell me, darling, what you're trying to do You give me double vision, soul transmission When you act so cruel My mind is reeling, can't see the ceiling 'Cause you've turned out the moon Tell me, mama, what you're trying to do You got me jumping like a man with the voodoo Tell me, darling, what you're trying to do You got me mad like a man with the voodoo
