In side lakes of Quarterly I've been 
Heard stories of air velveteen 
Twenty hours later I fill the room 
With bad sex and bad TV 
  
Go, go, go 
Go, go, go
  
When I was a painter I painted you well 
Too bad I have to die 
You brought the essentials, perversion appeal 
And many lovers at one time 
  
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
On and on, on, on 
  
In side lakes of Quarterly I've been 
Heard stories of air velveteen 
Twenty hours later I fill the room 
With bad sex and bad TV 
  
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
On and on, on, on
