Object Of My Affection

Lyrics

Jump into the night, gas up and down shift
 Cruise up the coast on the FM drift
 It's a crazy world on the head of a pin
 Some other time, some other star
 I might've cried but now, you only need to look so far
 As the smile on my face, to see the shape I'm in
 Try love in a bottle, try love in a box
 Play it all night long, dance 'til you drop
 And it sure got soul, it's not flesh and blood
 Boy, I tried looking for love but I guess it's true
 You don't look for love, it's gonna look for you
 Well you found me, honey and you sound so good
 You're the object of my affection
 Not a dream or make believe
 You're the object of my affection
 Come to me
 Now we see the women in the photograph
 Sweet Anne of mercy and Sylvia Plath
 For a thousand words they got a life sentence, oh yeah
 If we lined up all the girls who died in vain
 We could walk on their heads to Hell and back again
 But I got the big book and antidepressants
 And you're the object of my affection
 Not a phantom fantasy, yeah
 You're the object of my affection
 Come to me, hey
 And you're the object of my affection
 Not a toy with batteries
 You're the object of my affection
 Not a rescue remedy, oh no
 You're the object of my affection
 Come to me
