Momus - Superfreak lyrics

The things that people say are ugly
To me they're beautiful
I'm not afraid of darkness not afraid at all

And sleeping in a red plush coffin
Is luxury to me
There I'll dream sweet dreams
Of the Addams Family

I see a severed head
In every supermarket bag
I am my hunchback lover deliberately fat

Superfreak, on the street
You're the only one I want to meet

Superfreak, to the beat with your crazy hair
And your webbed feet

Superfreak, on the street
You're so bitter that you're super sweet

Superfreak, I repeat
Without you the world is incomplete?

I dreamed that I got lost one night
In an old ruined chateau
I walked from room to room
A and the wind blew cold

I pulled a cloak around my neck
Began to search for blood
Sucked the neck of a young girl
Little Red Riding Hood

I'll walk in borrowed flesh
Prepared for dying young
Deliberately crash my vintage Citroen

Superfreak, on the street
Superstition and contempt compete

To condemn all the freaks
All the zombies and the Supercreeps

Superfreak, on the street
You're so bitter that you're super sweet
Superfreak, I repeat
Without you the world is incomplete?

I walked with a zombie
Beneath the valley of the supervixens
Goblins, dybbuks, and Frankenstein's Monster
Watched solemnly as we passed
In the garden of bones I
Planted a skeleton tree
To make a shadow in moonlight for you and me

Show me your wound, Show me
Your club foot and your hammer head
Show me your thalidomide or radium arms
Show me your shadow show me your shadow
I can't love you till I see your darkness

And when you're searching for
The butterfly inside
Maybe a tarantula is what you really find
