Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We can fight our desires
Ooh, but when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Ooh, whether we like it or not
[Verse 2]
They say we can love who we trust
Ooh, but what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
Ooh, but what are feelings without emotions?
[Chorus]
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
[Verse 3]
I hang my hopes out on the line
Ooh, will they be ready for you in time?
If you leave them out too long
Ooh, they'll be withered by the sun
[Verse 4]
Full stops and exclamation marks
Ooh, my words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Ooh, can this fish cross the ocean?
[Chorus]
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
[Chorus]
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill, I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand
[Outro]
I'm going in, I'm doing it
Oh, I'm hoping you'll, will understand
I'm doing it, oh, I'm hoping you'll, will understand
