covered in you

Rolling Stones

Covered in you, covered in you
Coming a bit unscrewed
Covered in you, covered in you
Feeling a bit unglued

I need a place to calm me down, but this town is so noisy
I need to drown my troubles somewhere, you re my love
You re the coat I can t take off, I m aware of your affairs
And your perfume I can t shake off, I can never break off
The memory that s following me like a shadow
I m always dreamin of your skin so soft
And ya hit me in the chest with your arrow, in my marrow
You re painted on my body all silver and gold
And purple and pink and your brain stone cold
This never gets old

Covered in you, covered in you
Coming a bit unscrewed
Covered in you, covered in you
Feeling a bit unglued
What can I do, what can I do?
I m coming a bit unglued

Yeah

Listen, I wake up sick and tired of all these autocrats
You know they seem to be breeding like a swarm of dirty rats
With their missiles on parade
And they re wreathed in gold brocade
Opposition plays charades, they must always be obeyed
You know I m gonna wait til the panic passes
Wait till you see the whites of their asses
Me and you were separated like Korea
There s so many knots we can t undo, we can t untie
You re always trying to give me bad reviews

Covered in you, covered in you
Coming a bit unscrewed
Covered in you, covered in you
Feeling a bit unglued
Smothered in blue, smothered in blue
Coming a bit unscrewed
Covered in you, covered in you
Feeling a bit abused

You were born on my doorstep, that s no coincidence
It all makes perfect sense, you know it s true
Cause I m covered in you, upset my equilibrium
Make me take way too much lithium
So goodbye, lover, wish me luck
I m gonna vanish down the highway in my truck
Cause I couldn t really give a monkey s

Covered in you, covered in you
Coming a bit unscrewed
Covered in you, covered in you
Feeling a bit abused
Smothered in blue, smothered in blue
Feeling a bit unglued

You were born on my doorstep, that s no coincidence
It all makes perfect sense, you know it s true
Covered in you, cause I m covered in you
What can I do?
Covered in you, bent out of skew
Coming a bit unglued
Smothered in blue, broke the taboos
Coming a bit unscrewed
