¡Unos, dos, tres, catorce!
(Turn it up, eh, captain!)
Lights go down, it's dark
The jungle is your head
Can't rule your heart
A feeling so much stronger than
A thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
It can't be bought
Your mind can wander
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something I can feel, feel
The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They twinkle as the boys
Play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know
I can't stand the beats
I'm asking for the cheque
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus round her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Oh...
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
But you give me something I can feel, feel
(Shake me up)
(Hours of fun)
(Jumping in in yeah)
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want and no-one gets hurt
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
Lights go down and all I know
Is that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel, kneel
Yeah...
(Turn it up, eh, captain!)
Lights go down, it's dark
The jungle is your head
Can't rule your heart
A feeling so much stronger than
A thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
It can't be bought
Your mind can wander
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something I can feel, feel
The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They twinkle as the boys
Play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know
I can't stand the beats
I'm asking for the cheque
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus round her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Oh...
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
But you give me something I can feel, feel
(Shake me up)
(Hours of fun)
(Jumping in in yeah)
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want and no-one gets hurt
Hello, hello! (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo! (¿Dónde está?)
Lights go down and all I know
Is that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel, kneel
Yeah...
