This song was a whole lot of fun to write, coming up with so many opposites yet still keeping it fresh. It seems to be the song that all kids love - probably due to the last line of the song. It's also one that raises a laugh and a smile when played live too. For all you lovers who can't stand each other but won't let go!
I could be your bluebottle - you could be my venus flytrap
I could be your entertainer - you could be my slow handclap
I could be your trailer park - you could be my tornado
I could be your lovesick spider - you could be my black widow
I could be your bumper crop - you could be my plague of locusts
I could be your science book - you could be my hocus pocus
I could be your vegetation - you could be my forest fire
I could be your urgent journey - you could be my flat tyre
chorus
You are my addiction and I need my fix of you
And I know that you're no good for me but what am I to do?
I should have gone for crack cocaine or heroine or booze
You are my addiction and you screw me up, but I'm just hooked on you
I could be your non believer - you could be my God Almighty
I could be your night of passion - you could be my flannel nighty
I could be your perfect cabbage - you could be my caterpillar
I could be your sexy football - you could be my Aston Villa
I could be your ozone layer - you my CFC emmission
I could be your listed building - you could be my demolition
I could be your free range chicken - you could be my Colonel Sanders
I could be your Homer Simpson - you could be my Ned Flanders!
All words and music
