Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A letter to you on a cassette
'Cause we don't write anymore
Gotta make it up quickly
There's people asleep on the second floor
[Chorus]
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
Truth, beauty, and a picture of you
[Verse 2]
You'll be walking your dog in a few hours
I'll be asleep in my brother's house
You're a thousand miles away
With food between your teeth
Come up for summer, I've got a place near the beach
There's room for your dog
[Chorus]
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
Truth, beauty, and a picture of you
[Chorus]
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
Truth, beauty, and a picture of you
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
Youth, truth, beauty, fame
Boredom and a bottle of pills
[Chorus]
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
You shouldn't leave me alone
[Verse 3]
There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness
Bare feet like a tomboy and a crooked smile
Truth, youth, beauty, fame
Boredom, red hair, no hair, innocence
Saturday and a picture of you
A letter to you on a cassette
You shouldn't leave me alone
[Verse 4]
Forty, shaved, sexy wants to do it all day
With a gun-toting, trigger-happy tranny named Kinky Renee
Tired teacher, twenty-eight, seeks regular meetings
For masculine, muscular, nappy-clad, brutal breeding
While his wife rough-wrestles with a puppy all aquiver
On a wine-soaked, strobe-lit Asiatic hall of mirrors
And a dash of loneliness
[Chorus]
There's no aphrodisiac quite like it
Truth, youth, beauty, fame
Boredom, red hair, no hair, innocence
Impunity and a picture of you
I got a video setup, me love you short time
She pay me suck his finger with some fine wine
And a dash of loneliness
[Outro]
Truth, youth, beauty, fame
Boredom, red hair, no hair, innocence
Awkwardness, impunity and a picture of you
