Überetrocrushology: Flashback: 1978, Thai sticks and "pumping lovely," doc martins for the girls and eye-liner for the boys, spray painting "Normality is Confusing" and "God Was Never Even Alive" on the smoke hole walls between fourth and fifth period, lots of sex in the parking lot, a good deal of it at no charge. Flashforward: Me, every day for the last two weeks while driving to work, singing at the top of my lungs and dancing like a cross between Christopher Lowell and John Travolta, not being exactly sure who is gayer, much to the confusion of many passing fellow drivers who, judging by their expressions, are equally unsure.
LOVE IS INFECTIOUS
She keeps her patience for the bedroom
Should satisfy her for a week
Her domination is executed cheaply
With a studio technique
WHAT'S NEW??
She carries love in a carrier bag
WHAT'S NEW??
She don't keep her body clean OH! OH! OH!
OOO!
Illegitimate contributions
WHAT'S NEW??
And neurotic fantasies conceived
Love is infectious
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
Errrr I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
Love is infectious
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
Well I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
OOO!
WHAT'S NEW??
She keeps appointments by the hour glass, huh!
Guerilla warfare in her bed
And constant love is oh oh oh so negative!
We're simulating sex instead
She carries love in a carrier bag
She don't keep her body clean OH! OH! OH!
Illegitimate contributions
And neurotic fantasies conceived
oh well
Love is infectious
UH, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
Well I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
Love is infectious
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
I JUST DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
OOO!
WHAT'S NEW??
No personality's essential
Nobody strictly in command
She's not direct, elusive or inadequate
Love's incompatible commands
WHAT'S NEW??
She carries love in a carrier bag
She don't keep her body clean OH! OH! OH!
Illegitimate contributions
And neurotic heartaches are conceived
Love is infectious
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
Errrr I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
Love is infectious
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!
Love is infectious
Well I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
OOO!
WHAT'S NEW??
I can neither confirm nor deny the rumor that this song was written for TankGirl, I do know, however, she dated nearly every member of the band at one time or another during the mid 70s.
