lyrics

NO ONE GETS HURT

This is how it all begins
you and me and our reservations
mixing bits together and
waiting for the detonation

The countdown's begun you know
I always say something foolish
Where is it you'd like to go
And can I take you there?

Said you can't be hurt right now
That's OK because I can
What does that mean anyhow?
You don't look like superman

Yes, I see, you're vulnerable
Been burned before now you're afraid
I think that's just wonderful
We make a perfect pair

Come on -- cause you might as well
Come on -- because I can tell
Come on -- what's beneath your shell
Just sleep here tonight no one gets hurt

Torture me by telephone
Make me ache until you call
At least I won't be alone
Knowing it won't ring at all

I've tried what you're trying, too
I'm a knight in rusty armor
Do my best to protect you
We're both a little scared

Come on -- little porcupine
Come on -- let me make you mine
Come on -- everything is fine
Just sleep here tonight no one gets hurt
