My heart is like an artichoke
I eat petals myself one by one
Until I feel enough
Until I lose to laugh
When I end to eat the last one
I will fear my drops
I will lose my lips
Though I can’t stop plucking off
I can’t see my core
I keep asking for you more and more
Can you peel my petals one by one?
Your hands are like a rusty knife
Are you gonna keep on peeling me?
Are you gonna keep on peeling me?
What am I gonna be on the pan?
Will I be burnt black?
Can you squeeze a lemon on me?
Baby…Baby… - Everything you wanna feel
Baby…Baby… - Everything you wanna taste
Baby…Baby… - Everything you wanna feel
Baby…Baby… - Everything you wanna taste
