I am just a lousy bum Searching for the unknown crumb The crumb the crumb Something or someone to come Come along illuminate my lust Combust Confucius might have been confused And Buddha might have blown a fuse I ooze the muse Meet me at the coffee shop We can dance like Iggy Pop Another go in the parking lot Frewak the cheek on your hot spot Back and forth my body's jerking Will to thrill will not stop working Work and work I'll take you on a honeymoon Jumping on a bed in a hotel room The room the groom Meet me at the coffee shop We can dance Like Iggy Pop Another go in the parking lot Frewak the cheek on your hot spot
