Janis Ian - This Must Be Wrong lyrics

[Janis Ian - This Must Be Wrong lyrics]

I gave a party, I said you could come
You showed up at your door
With all your leathers on
I said, "This must be wrong
It can't be right
How can you make love to me
Dressed up for a fight?
Pick me up off the floor
No more, 'cause you surely can't be mine"

Religion came almost overnight
You were the high priest, I was the sacrifice
I said, "This must be wrong
This can't be right
Take off your stupid robe and
Put down your knife
These ropes are getting tight
All right, you surely can't be mine"

I come home half dead late
On a Saturday night
You stand on the bed and you
Tell me you're learning to fly
I said, "Take off your boots
Take off your cape
Throw away your long johns
I ain't no Lois Lane
Before I get my kryptonite
All right, 'cause you surely can't be mine"

I was ready for love, big brass bed and all
I was ready for love, You said
"Let's talk about the war" i said
"What war? What war? Take off your clothes
And don't you worry me no more
I ain't no fly by night
All right, you surely can't be mine"
