a manic delirical true adventure, adventure of love, love and conjure (I always heard "culture" but I think you're right here)
radio g strings, red blue and black things, switching my radio, radio g string

quack quack, the radio is talking back
dizzying in a veer and my heart goes snap

@pedro10998 Yes! Thank god. I think you are right on everything probably. "Sex Mac and sex Donald's..." classic. OMG I am so happy you replied with this. I actually listened to this song like 10 times today, since Bow Wow Wow is one of my go-tos in the summer, and now I can sing along with something other than phonetic gibberish.

@pedro10998 the only thing that I am still unsure about is "letter x," just from listening to the Peel session version. I hope you submitted an edit, coz looking at the ones I submitted, they're all out of order. I think I was copying and pasting too much.

@misterzan81 Yeah the letter X bit sounds weird, like "letter yaks" or something. But then again there are other songs where Annabella spells weirdly, like the way she sings the K in W.O.R.K sounds a bit weird to me, so I thought maybe it's part of her style or accent. But yeah it could definitely be something else too.

I'm not sure about the "true adventure", almost sounds like "thrill" to me. "I need a must" could also be a lot of things like "find me a mask" or "spy me amassed", it's like I hear something different every time.
It also ocurred me this morning that it could be "sex mac, sex donalds, sex duck" etc, especially as it leads to the "quack quack" bit.
We should maybe just try to contact Annabella and ask her hahah.
@pedro10998 OK. So, the "letter X," yes. Between the album version, Peel version, and live version I have been able to find, it sounds like there is an N or an S in there. Like, "elay-ens-lay-X."

And I actually only realized yesterday that in "W.O.R.K..." she pronounces it "Wo-O-RKa-N-O." I had always thought she was singing "Work-O-R-Ka-N-O."

And yeah, it almost sounds like like is saying "I need a master." Until your comment I had always heard "I need a master, stereo sex." which I always knew was wrong.
I think you are right, that she does actually say "sex duck," because it fits with the "quack," AND even the "Donald's" line in a way. And we know she has some thoughts on Disney...
Lastly, I messaged her on Facebook. I figure the worst case scenario is that she doesn't respond. :P
@misterzan81 Yeah there's definitely an N sound in there, like "a lent to yaks" or something. Let's hope Annabella answers, I'm really curious to what are the real lyrics. Anyway it was fun trying to figure it out! Thanks

@pedro10998 OK so, years later...listened to this just now. Could it be "sex maybe, sex don't know, sex that, and so what?" And it is also starting to sound like "maybe (or baby) I must have trivial sex...?" But I don't know what "as a letter X" could mean in that context. Sigh, I will go to my grave never knowing the answer. But here is my new full attempt at deciphering:

I added this in the hope that someone else knows the actual lyrics, as this has been driving me crazy for decades.
