lyrics

you and me and a dog
fighting over who would be
the first man in space
but you and that dog
you left
your captain bereft
now i am playing in a lonely place

i need
i need you now

is he really going out with him?
is he really going out with him?
yeah there may have been
some out and in
but there ain't anymore
is it revelry or devilry
i'm bringing through my open door

i need
i need your love
i'm cruising
i'm going cruising

make me a daisy chain
i'll make me a wish
bring back my sailor
matt, don't blow it

get your ass back from australia
your ass back from australia
your ass back from australia
your ass back from australia
now

well you and the dog came back
we're making a lovers' pact
well we are tied
like cyanide
to a christie crime
getting off
on a nabokovian pantomime

we need
we need our love
we're cruising
we're cruising
we need
we need our love
we're cruising
we're cruising
