Centerfold
Against All Authority Lyrics

Does she walk? Does she talk?
Is she attractive and social?

Does she come complete?
Does she have everything I need?

My homeroom angel always pulled me from my seat
My beautiful classmate would always help me out.

She was pure like snowflakes, no one could ever stain
My classmate was innocent and untouched by the world.

The memory of my angel could never cause me pain
Remembering my classmate always brought me joy.

Years go by, I'm looking through a girlie magazine
Years later, I'm flipping through an adult magazine.

And there's my homeroom angel on the pages in between
I see my former classmate as a centerfold model.

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My heart sinks as I realize my memory of her has been tainted.

Slipping notes under the desk
Passing notes to each other during class.

While I was think about her dress
As I daydreamed about what she was wearing.

I was shy, I turned away before she caught my eye
I was too shy to make eye contact with her.

I was shaking in my shoes, whenever she flashed those baby blues
Her beautiful blue eyes would make me nervous and excited at the same time.

Something had a hold on me when angel passed close by
She had a certain power over me when she was nearby.

Those soft fuzzy sweaters, too magical to touch
I was mesmerized by her soft, fuzzy sweaters.

I see her in that negligee is really just too much
Seeing her in a revealing nightgown is almost too much for me to handle.

Now listen, it's okay, I understand
It's okay, I get it now.

This ain't no never-never land
This is reality, not a fantasy world.

I hope that when this fish is gone
I hope I can be with you when you're fully clothed.

I'll see you when your clothes on
I want to see you outside of the context of adult entertainment.

Take your car, yes, we will, we'll take your car and drive it
Let's take your car and go somewhere together.

Take it to a motel and take 'em off in private
Let's go to a hotel room and be intimate.

A part of me has just been wrecked
A part of me is broken now that I've seen my classmate in this way.

The pages from my mind are stripped
My once pure memories of her are now corrupted.

Oh no, I can't deny it
I can't deny my attraction to her.

Oh yeah, I got to buy it
I have to have a copy of the magazine with her centerfold.

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My feelings are mixed as I realize the memory of my classmate has been commercialized.
