There's a gallows in your eyes Can I hang around a while? Scratch that itch and burn and twitch And dangle from your smile 'Cause when you dance like Salome With my head upon your tray You're a devil spawn in blue chiffon A Satanic Doris Day You get up close beside me And I get a heart attack The angels have all gone to find me And they're never, never coming back I'd hate to deceive her I said I'd never leave her I click the hammer on my .45 When she clicks the receiver Loving you is so taboo An emotional tattoo Burnin', wailin', heads and tailin' What am I gonna do? 'Cause loving you is so taboo An emotional tattoo Burnin', wailin', heart is a failin' What am I gonna do?
