The 13th Lyrics

"EVERYONE FEELS GOOD IN THE ROOM" SHE SWINGS
"TWO CHORD COOL IN THE HEAD" SHE SINGS
"A-BUZZ A-BUZZ A-BUZZING LIKE THEM KILLER BEES... "
TELL ME THIS IS NOT FOR REAL
PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS NOT FOR REAL...

FROM TIME TO TIME HER EYES GET WIDE
AND SHE'S ALWAYS GOT THEM STUCK ON ME
I'M SURPRISED AT HOW HOT HONEY-COLOURED AND HUNGRY SHE LOOKS
AND I HAVE TO TURN AWAY TO KEEP FROM BURSTING
YEAH I FEEL THAT GOOD!

SHE SLIPS FROM THE STAGE
A FOOT NO MORE
BUT IT SEEMS TO TAKE AN HOUR FOR HER TO REACH THE FLOOR
AND THE TWO CHORD COOL STILL GROOVES
AS SHE SLIDES TOWARDS ME SMOOTH AS A SNAKE
I CAN'T SWALLOW I JUST START TO SHAKE
AND I JUST KNOW THIS IS A BIG MISTAKE
YEAH BUT IT FEELS GOOD!

DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME!
DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME!

"IF YOU WANT I CAN TAKE YOU ON ANOTHER KIND OF RIDE... "
"BELIEVE ME I WOULD BUT... "
DEEP INSIDE THE 'BUT' IS 'PLEASE'
I AM YEARNING FOR ANOTHER TASTE
AND MY SHAKING IS 'YES'

"YOU WILL BE ALL THE THINGS IN THE WORLD YOU'VE NEVER BEEN
SEE ALL THE THINGS IN THE WORLD YOU'VE NEVER SEEN
DREAM ALL THE THINGS IN THE WORLD YOU'VE NEVER DREAMED... "
BUT I THINK I GET A BIT CONFUSED...
AM I SEDUCING OR BEING SEDUCED?

OH I KNOW THAT TOMORROW I'LL FEEL BAD
BUT I REALLY COULDN'T CARE ABOUT THAT
SHE'S GRINNING SINGING SPINNING ME ROUND AND ROUND
SMILING AS I START TO FALL
HER FACE GETS BIG HER FACE GETS SMALL
IT'S LIKE TONIGHT I'M REALLY NOT ME AT ALL
AND IT FEELS GOOD!

DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME!
DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME! DO IT TO ME!

IT FEELS GOOD!

Is in my top 5 Cure songs of all time. highly underrated. I love the horn. And, "am i seducing or being seduced?" is the best line of any song...ever!

Another perfect line about sex "her face gets big her face gets small"... almost as good as "you wet through and me headfirst" ...

Err, the song bewilders me a bit, but about the title, in the video, at the start, the TV says "Number 12 in a series of brutal hotel slayings..."

Lol, tis a good song tho. Ha, and maybe he's the 13th? cuz that drag queen like traped him? and changed the channel? and he was all beat up. Maybe he's "the 13th"? even though i dont agree with the song and video like "going together" ha. i have a totally different one in my head.:P

Robert said something about a night in a bar doing singing against other people and another chick sang 'the 13th' but it was different, and the song was inspired by that. I can imagine a complete different music video in my head... one which includes dancing, hip thrusting, and smeared lipstick lol. -Amanda

Listening to this song, I think it's about drugs. Like... "I know tomorrow, I'll feel bad... but I really couldn't care about that..." it almost sounds like he is trying a kind of drug for the first time. Also, it sounds like he's either having sex or is going to have sex.

love the subtle guitar.

in my mind this song is about a guy wanting to have sex with a girl when he shouldnt for some reason. she is some sort of performer, eying him from the stage and is sexually forward, he wants to refuse but cant. this isnt usual for him so he is suprised, but is enjoying not being himself, maybe not caring or the sexual freedom. cool song, i like how convincing Robert Smith is.

I meant to add LOL to my last comment because in the song he says " I think tomorrow I'll feel bad...." But I love RS voice in this song and the way he does voice changes to tell a story.
