Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She's the flutter in my heart
The spring is in my step
My empty head sees the lump form in my throat
The view in my mind's eye
My empty heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, ho
In my heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, ho-whoa-whoa
[Verse 2]
She's got her suspicions
(X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray)
Romantic intuition
(X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray)
She sees through me with her
X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray vision
Oh-whoa-oh
X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray vision
Ho-whoa-ho
[Verse 3]
Sees me shiftin' in my seat
Picks that up in a heart beat
My empty head
Sees the tongue get to my cheek
My conscience bleak
My empty heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, ho
My heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, ho-whoa-whoa
[Verse 4]
She's got her suspicions
(X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray)
Romantic intuition
(X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray)
She sees through me with her
X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray vision
Ho-whoa
X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray, X-Ray vision
Ho-whoa-ho
[Verse 5]
And with this power
She can see
Through solid objects
Like you and me
