Lyrics Siouxsie and the Banshees

Siouxsie and the Banshees

Tattoo

When you're sitting all alone in the middle of the floor

There's something uncontrollable

As you sit there watching the door

Colour me

Tattooed on the inside

Slap your thigh, slap your calf,

Sing your mantra, leave your mark

Colour me

Something fierce along my spine

To scare the madman from behind

Fortify my arms with some snake-like lines

Colour me, colour me

Like a stomach split in half

By a surgeon's cutting art

Colours me, colours me, colours me

When you're sitting all alone

In the middle of the floor

There's something uncontrollable

As you sit there watching the door

Tattooed on the inside

A lonely feeling

Inoculating

Colours me

Slap your thigh, slap your calf,

Sing your mantra, leave your mark

Colour me
