She's not a girl who misses much
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet
hand
Like a lizard on a window pane

The man in the crowd with the multicolored mirrors
On his hobnailed boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands
Working over time
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the Nation's Trust

I need a fix cause I'm going down
Down to the bitch that I left uptown
I need a fix cause I'm going down

Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

When I hold you in my arms
And I feel my finger on your trigger
I know that nobody can do me no harm
Happiness is a warm gun, mama
Happiness is a warm gun
