lyrics

With a stagger and a stall, one night did i fall
I was drunk as a skunk and thought id seen it all
but a hand took hold, pulled me up to see
the most beautiful girl now in front of me

Not ever before had existed this door
And beyond bodies astrune a long corridor
(fiendish) faces followed and eyes did glare
as into the last door something whispered beware

She took my hand.. and lead me astray
She shook my world, to the devil unknown
I met the mother of mojo,... With eyes of fire they did glow

Now in this place i lost time i lost space
My senses came alive with her touch and her taste
I saw wild intent, as i held my grip
from a subtle smile as she bit on her lips
(so i asked) Woman, what you doing to me
i say woman, how'd you do these things
come on woman, what you doing with me
with a sex this good i never want to leave

She took my hand.. and lead me astray
She shook my world, to the devil unknown
I met the mother of mojo,... With fire her eyes they did glow
I met the mother of mojo, yeah
She'd show me places I'd never know

A secret desire, a guilty pleasure..
