VERBAL INTIMACY








IF I TOLD YOU I WAS CELIBATE
WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO PENETRATE MY MIND
CONNECT MORE INTELLECTUALLY
THAN YOU JUST TRYING TO HIT IT FROM BEHIND
PAY MORE ATTENTION TO WHAT I SAY
AND LESS TO MY PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
I'LL PUT ON A SHOW FOR YOU
WHERE YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE IN THE AUDIENCE
MY CONVERSATIONS ARE LIKE FOREPLAY
I WANT TO GET YOU IN THE MOOD
LET ME STRIP YOU OF YOUR THOUGHTS
AND LEAVE YOUR BRAIN IN THE NUDE
DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I LIKE TO DO IT ON THE FIRST DATE
MY INTELLIGENCE IS SWEET
AND I WOULDN'T MIND GIVING YOU A TASTE
LET'S LAY IN THE BED OF KNOWLEDGE
AND SEE WHAT IT IS WE CAN REDEFINE
I'VE CONCLUDED THAT THE BEST LOVE MAKING BEGINS
WITH THE MIND
