I blew up your body but you blew my mind.

Your swimming-pool eyes in sea breezes they flutter

Until the cloak of evening shadow changes to mantle of the dawn

You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying?

We're too young to reason, too grown up to dream


All from Bryan Ferry.

The first line is a bit clumsy, but she sings (raps?) it very well.

The execution of Gary Gilmore written into folklore by a punk band. I remember it catching my imagination all those years ago. Thanks for the memories. smile
