lyrics

I'm curious (there's no doubt about it)
So curious (no doubt in my mind)
You're outrageous (outrageous!)
And enormous

You see me sitting here (walk right passed me)
See me smiling
You look right through me, babe, and ask
Are you contagious?

I'm desperate (I'm down on my knees)
We're disparate (nothing in common)
You're indifferent (you don't care at all)
But I, I won't relent (come on baby)

I'm tryna ask you out (can't you hear me)
If that ain't too audatious
You move away from me and ask
…

Now I don't produce a mucus
But that don't mean I'm useless
'Cause I can do secretion
You just gotta help me to completion
You know I'm not a god
I'm not a gastropod
But come on don't make me cry
Give a vertebrate a try

You see me sitting here (come on, I'm beggin' yuh!)
See me smiling (I don't got a disease)
You just ignore me babe (and now?)
Now I'm crying

You look right through me, babe, and ask:
Are you contagiouuuuuuuuuuus?
Contaaaaaagious?
Contaaaaaagioooooous?

Ohhhh you act like I'm diseased
But, come on, baby please
A hermaphrodite, I'm not
But check out what I got
I'd be a better date
Than any slug you'd make
Come on, don't make me cry
Give a vertebrate a try!
