friction!
D5 Bb5
nightclubs, nightstalkers, fast women, fast talkers
G5 A5
loose lips, loose limbs, the lovely loveless
D5 Bb5
sunset to sunrise, black dresses, black eyes
G5 A5
tangles of tangos, hot hands, hot thighs

F5 C5
why can I never get you?
Bb5 C5
theres a sea of bodies between us.
F5 C5
I recall the first time i saw you -
Bb5 C5
not a dance hall - but a crowded bus.
A5
pressed against the scent of stale sweat -
D5 Bb5 A5
friction!
D5 Bb5
vampires and witches steal bloody red kisses
G5 A5
in go-go boots, itailin suits; they always dress to kill.
D5 Bb5
they spin their umbrellas, they dance a tarantella..
G5 A5
but im not here for them , I only come here to watch you.
F5 C5
I want to make your acquaintance,
Bb5 C5
to escort - to be a gentleman.
F5 C5
I want to rub up against you..
Bb5 C5
like those scoundrels - like those wolves do.
A5
they run in packs in saabs and SUVS.
F5 C5
oh, these pounding dance clubs.
Bb5 C5
this friction between us.
F5 C5
how you throw your body,
Bb5 C5
its so moving.. but never toward me.
A5
still, I always seem to read between the beat.
D5 Bb5 A5
Friction!
