Rose Tint My World
Susan Sarandon Lyrics

It was great when it all began
At the start, everything was wonderful.

I was a regular Frankie fan
I used to adore someone named Frankie.

But it was over when he had the plan
Our relationship ended when he decided to focus on building up his muscles.

To start working on a muscle man
He wanted to become more muscular.

Now the only thing that gives me hope
The only thing that makes me feel optimistic is my love of a certain drug.

Is my love of a certain dope
I find comfort in taking drugs.

Rose tints my world
The drugs make me see things in a more positive light.

Keeps me safe from my trouble and pain
The drugs help me escape from my problems and pain.

I'm just seven hours old
I am young and inexperienced.

Truly beautiful to behold
Despite my inexperience, I am attractive to others.

And somebody should be told
Everyone should know about me and my beauty.

My libido hasn't been controlled
I am driven by my sexual desires and can't control myself.

Now the only thing I've come to trust
The only thing I find reliable is the feeling of sexual satisfaction.

Is an orgasmic rush of lust
I am addicted to feeling sexually fulfilled.

It's beyond me
I don't understand what's going on.

Help me, mommy
I need someone to guide me and show me the way.

I'll be good, you'll see
If you help me, I will change and become a better person.

Take this dream away
I want to forget my wild desires and dreams.

What this, let's see
I am curious about what's happening and want to explore it.

I feel sexy
I am turned on and aroused.

What's come over me?
I am experiencing a new sensation and am unaware of its origin.

Woo, here it comes again
I am experiencing this feeling once more.

I feel released
I feel free from my inhibitions and am able to express myself.

Bad times deceased
My previous negative experiences no longer bother me.

My confidence has increased
I am now more self-assured and bold.

Reality is here
I am now fully present in the real world.

The game has been disbanded
The facade and deception is over.

My mind has been expanded
I have gained new insights and ideas.

It's a gas that Frankie's landed
I find it amusing that Frankie has fallen into this trap as well.

His lust is so sincere
Frankie's passion is genuine and real.

Whatever happened to Fay Wray?
I wonder what happened to a woman named Fay Wray.

That delicate satin draped frame
I remember the beauty and vulnerability of a woman's delicate clothing.

As it clung to her thigh, how I started to cry
I was deeply moved by the image of satin wrapping around a woman's leg.

'Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same
I yearned to be as beautiful and delicate as that woman.

Give yourself over to absolute pleasure
Allow yourself to indulge in pure pleasure and enjoyment.

Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh
Permit yourself to engage in sexual desires and pleasures.

Erotic nightmares beyond any measure
Experience wild and intense erotic fantasies that are unimaginable.

And sensual daydreams to treasure forever
Remember vivid and pleasurable sexual fantasies that last a lifetime.

Can't you just see it? oh oh oh
Imagine the pleasure and enjoyment that is possible.

Don't dream it, be it
Don't fantasize about something - just do it.

Ach, we've got to get out of this trap (don't dream it, be it)
We need to get out of this cycle of fantasizing and into the real world.

Before this decadence saps our will (don't dream it, be it)
We need to act before our intense desires drain us of our motivation and drive.

I've got to be strong and try to hang on (don't dream it, be it)
I need to have the strength to resist temptation and maintain my control.

Or else my mind may well snap (don't dream it, be it)
If I give in to my desires, I may lose control of my mind.

Und my life will be lived for the thrills (don't dream it, be it)
If I indulge in my desires, my life will be defined by my intense experiences.

God bless Lili St. Cyr
This is a reference to a prominent burlesque dancer of the time, whom Sarandon admired.

My my my, my my my my my, my my my my
This is an expression of Sarandon's excitement and pleasure.

I'm a wild and untamed thing
I am free-spirited and unconventional.

I'm a bee with a deadly sting
I may be small, but I am powerful and dangerous.

You get a hit and your mind goes ping
You experience an intense sensation that is almost overwhelming.

Your heart will pump and your blood will sing
Your body will react physically to the intense sensations.

So let the party and the sound rock on
Continue to indulge in the wild party and pleasures.

We're gonna shake it 'til the life has gone
We will keep indulging until we can't anymore.

We are wild and untamed things
We are free-spirited and impulsive people.

So let the party and the sound rock on
Continue to enjoy the wild party and pleasures of life.

We're gonna shake it 'til the life has gone, gone, gone, gone
We will indulge in these wild pleasures until we can't anymore.

Frankenfurter it's all over
This is a turning point in the story - the main character's actions have consequences.

Your mission is a failure, your lifestyle's too extreme
The main character's behavior and desires caused him to fail.

I'm your new commander, you now are my prisoner
Someone else is now in control of the situation.

We return to Transylvania, prepare the transit beam
The story comes to a close as the characters return home and prepare to leave.
