Sheltering her ego on the edge of the floodlight's arc

She'll contemplate seduction, calculate the catch

When she moved her presence speared me

When she spoke her words ensnared me

Watch the lizard, watch the lizard

Watch the lizard with the crimson veil.



She crucified my heart in the depths of a satin grave

As I lay in sweating monologue I sensed the lovelight fade

Within the spiral of the cigarette

You betrayed your bedside etiquette

I saw the lizard, I saw the lizard

I touched the lizard with the crimson veil



I've seen a different doorway shut a million times before

Smilng she-chameleons, smiling vinyl whores



They know what they want, they sing your name and glide between the sheets

I never say no, in chemical glow we'll let our bodies meet



Degraded and alone, raped and still forlorn

Betrayed upon a lizard's bed.

We chameleon, we chameleon, We
