Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Go on out take your place and find the one who does it all for you
I swear I hope an alien will take you from this planet
Then I turn around I never really meant it oh
All that velvet is waiting to get in
It don't fit into your plans to be so selfish when
All that velvet is waiting for your kiss
Like this like this
I'm so scary call me Carrie
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned
I'll make you wish you'd never been born
All that velvet is waiting to get in
It don't fit into your plans to be so selfish when
All that velvet is waiting for your kiss
It's enough to make your head spin
Like this like this like this
Come to me, darling
Leave these others and come to me
La la la la la la la la la la
