![]() Blunderbuss (2012) [ larger cover art ] |
I want love to
Roll me over slowly
Stick a knife inside me
And twist it all around
I want love to
Grab my fingers gently
Slam them in a doorway
Put my face into the ground
I want love to
Murder my own mother and
Take her off to somewhere
Like hell or up above
And I want love to
Change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies
And show me how it's all my fault
Yeah, I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
Anymore
I want love to
Walk right up and bite me
Grab a hold of me and fight me
Leave me dying on the ground
And I want love to
Split my mouth wide open and
Cover up my ears
And never let me hear a sound
I want love to
Forget that you offended me
Or how you had defended me
When everybody tore me down
Yeah, I want love to
Change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies
And show me how it's all my fault
Yeah, I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
Anymore

| dig | Posted: Apr 27, 2013 - 13:50 Possibly the best love song ever written. |
| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Apr 01, 2013 - 17:19 Saw his Austin City Limits performance recently and it was VERY impressive. He truly has a gift and passion for music that is not typical! |
| Segue (Almost Paradise) | Posted: Apr 01, 2013 - 17:18 Props to Jack White for this brilliant song after all the barking about his yodeling I've done on RP. Quite likeable. |
| subgyro (Cowgary, AB) | Posted: Mar 25, 2013 - 09:53 Gotta love that early-70s feel, and is it just me, or does anyone else hear Robert Plant at first? |

| gillespp (Portland, OR) | Posted: Mar 25, 2013 - 09:49 This one's gone from 8 to 9 for me. I love his creativity. |

| mrgus (Salt Lake City) | Posted: Oct 23, 2012 - 11:12 This song reminds me of Frasier & Debolt, a very underappreciated duo from the early 70's. |

I think they just like saying it. Reminds me of wanderlust. Or if taken at its parts, it could mean "accidental kiss." Tho' I kinda think Jack's acknowledging the soft touch of his people skills. Give him props for self-deprecating humor. |
| coloradojohn (A Mile High and then some, Cherry Creek, Denver) | Posted: Jun 05, 2012 - 10:31 Now as soon as I hear those sparkling notes (Roland?) come out and dance across my desk, I RUN AND CRANK THIS BABY RIGHT ON UP AND THEN SOME! Jack is back in Elephant mode, and I am digging it immensely... |

Individualistic maybe, but if you find him 'creepy' then you would do well to avoid visiting where I live as he would blend into the background here. |
