Free-spirited young man

Why d'you have to grow

From a sparky little jewel

Into something so pointed and cold

Cold feet

I'm gonna do a runner

I couldn't breathe

Cos you had the power



And i feel sorry for you

Cos you don't bother me

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you to kill me

I've erased all your twisted ways

From my memory

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you, i dare you

You're gonna have to kill me

(oo-ooh, oo-ooh)



I could forgive you

But then i would say that, wouldn't i?

I wasn't jaded back then

And i still had a twinkle in my eye

Funny how it is with a hand around your neck

And a pounding in your chest

What thoughts you have

I haven't been to india yet



And i feel sorry for you

Cos you don't bother me

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you to kill me

I've erased all your twisted ways

From my memory

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you, i dare you

You're gonna have to



I haven't been to india yet

No, no

I haven't been to india yet



Free-spirited young man

Why d'you have to grow

From a sparky little jewel

Into something so pointed and cold

Cold feet

They took me on a runner

Now i can breathe

Cos i have the power



And i feel sorry for you

Cos you don't bother me

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you to kill me

I've erased all your twisted ways

From my memory

And cos i'm in control now

I dare you, i dare you

You're gonna have to kill me
