FULL MOON
Elvira Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It′s so hot
I'm burning up
I wonder what I got?
I don′t know what or who's got into me
I'm breaking out in high anxiety
I′m all bound up and tied in knots

Get me to a doctor who can help me on a double
I feel like a victim with a curse of female trouble
Could this be the story of oh... or just my time of the month?
I don′t know!

Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon, tonight

Oh, kiss me quick
I'm coming on to you to do the trick
Oh, won′t you please talk dirty to me?
Make it obscene or blasphemy
My full libido's going wild

Enveloping the moon is such a hard act to swallow
It′s taking me to places where clothes wouldn't follow
Going down in dreams rated-X
Step right up, boy, you could be next

Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon, tonight
Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon
Full Moon, tonight

Rape
Murder
Arson
And Disorderly Conduct
Is there any other kind?
Practically double during a full moon
Along with suicide and of course an increase in your... sex drive...(oooh!)

And we become more sensitive to combinations of certain drugs.and overdoses are more likely to occur
Along with insomnia, restless behavior, nymphomania and of course an increase in your... what girls?
(Sex Drive!)...That′s right
The word 'Moon' comes with a Latin word Luna, you know, like in lunatic, lunacy, looney tunes
Or like in someone who is afflicted with an overpowering increase in their... sex drive! (oooh!)

Lay me down and give me mouth to mouth resuscitation
I′m about to OD from this Luna penetration
Time is coming in with a gush, up and down, in and out with a rush

Full Moon
(Feelings getting stronger)
Full Moon
(Oh! My nails are getting longer)
Full Moon
Full Moon, tonight

Full Moon
(Going on a prowl)
Full Moon
(Makes me wanna hoooooowl!)
Full Moon




Full Moon, tonight!
(End)
