I'm distilling everything she said into a potion

But it's always going to my head in slow motion

oh nightmare girl



Things are getting weirder

At the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming kills my appetite

For love and restless nights



Once she wanted me to exercise her self-possession

And then failing that she wanted lives and vivisection

Oh nightmare girl



Things are getting weirder

At the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming kills my appetite

For love and restless nights



I'm on a train to Brooklyn

I'm on the IRT

I've gotta think I'm saving the day

I get a call in the night

I get a call at three

I gotta go and make it OK



Cause things are getting weirder at the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming kills my appetite

Nightmare girl



things are getting weirder

things are getting weirder

things are getting weirder
