about
this is a pretty subtle rearrangement I've done on an Arctic Monkeys' song/John Cooper Clarke poem. the best love songs are the ones that never mention "love" at all. this song has some really unconventional ways of expressing desire and devotion, hence, it's one of my favorites.
'leccy is british slang for electric, wow u learn something new every day
lyrics
the words:
I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
breathing in your dust
I wanna be your Ford Cortina
I will never rust
If you like your coffee hot
let me be your coffee pot
you call the shots, babe
I just wanna be yours
secrets I have held in my heart
are harder to hide than I thought
maybe I just wanna be yours
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
I wanna be your 'leccy meter
I'll never run out
let me be the portable heater
that you'll get cold without
I wanna be your setting lotion, I wanna be
hold your hand, deep devotion
I wanna be at least as deep as the Pacific Ocean
I wanna be yours
secrets I have held in my heart
are harder to hide than I thought
maybe I just wanna be yours
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
