Lenina - The Vapors

Take me to your leader turn the lights out

Close the doors and lock the room

I require a meeting with the girl

Who took my soul this afternoon

Don’t go telling me she’s not here now

I followed her home alone Lenina

Hey hey Lenina aliens are pulling your strings

I’ve got my eyes on you Lenina

I only wanna tell you one thing

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Friday Saturday Sunday where were you

Same old fur-trimmed janitor keeps me

Outside in the snow the whole week through

Don’t go telling me lies about her

I got my own spies Lenina

Hey hey Lenina aliens are pulling your strings

I’ve got my eyes on you Lenina

I only wanna tell you one thing

I’ve been trying to keep it quiet

But the secrets getting out

And everyone seems to know

They got their spies in the sky

And a line from MI5

And a pocketful of files

With the finger on you

Saw you at the window, Alice on a toadstool

Breathing little clouds with a smile

As you traced your name

Me with a good view, Johnny on a corkscrew

Cassacks at the door with a smile

Say you can’t come in

Intelligence says you’re out of reach there

Defectors smile from every corner

Love like danger man

Hey hey Lenina aliens are pulling your strings

I’ve got my eyes on you Lenina

I only wanna tell you one thing

Lenina Karenina I’ll tell you one thing

I’ll try morse love and semaphore

You’ll maybe lip read

I’ll leave a message on the radio

To tell you where to come and find me

I’ve got a box of black magic for you
