[00:00.00]Corruption - Iggy Pop
[00:15.81]She sat on the pavement
[00:18.32]As I pulled in the drive
[00:21.97]Wearing leopard skin velvet
[00:24.22]And shiny black eyes
[00:28.19]She looks like a sleeper
[00:30.12]Said my wife at the time
[00:34.20]She had curls like delilah
[00:36.77]And a smile like the sun
[00:39.95]She held my poor corpse
[00:41.78]Like shed never be done
[00:45.18]And the caption in my mind said
[00:48.10]This is the one
[00:52.39]But I'm strong and I'm disciplined
[00:55.62]And I avoided her for years
[00:59.77]Till one night as usual
[01:01.84]With my heart full of tears
[01:04.92]A hand touched my back
[01:07.16]And she was standing right there
[01:10.46]Then I felt the luxury of her
[01:14.36]I felt the luxury of her
[01:18.34]I felt the luxury of her
[01:22.79]I felt the luxury
[01:25.99]Whispering
[01:29.19]Whispering
[01:34.12]Now I'll try hard to tell things
[01:36.41]Just like they is
[01:38.53]How my life was a desert
[01:40.24]Before she came in
[01:42.71]And wrecked it and ripped it
[01:44.92]And rubbed my nerves thin
[01:48.70]How I liked to see her little feet
[01:50.73]Pad around the house
[01:52.98]The way she curled up
[01:54.60]Quietly on the couch
[01:57.06]I can still see her
[01:58.06]In my mind that way now
[02:01.74]Aah I felt the luxury of her
[02:05.62]I felt the luxury of her
[02:09.45]I felt the luxury of her
[02:18.52]Well time went by quickly
[02:20.27]And her confidence grew
[02:22.48]And she wanted this and that
[02:24.44]And she wanted those too
[02:26.86]And she wouldn't shut up
[02:29.39]And one day I just blew up
[02:33.73]Now she is in the hospital
[02:35.42]For the second time
[02:37.81]Maybe she'll die
[02:39.65]Maybe I'll cry
[02:41.79]Therapists would say
[02:44.15]You're in denial
[02:47.17]But love became inconvenient
[02:50.51]Love became a literal drag
[02:53.65]Very bad for business
[02:56.50]I'd be better off a fag
[02:59.23]She is a model de sport
[03:01.04]That I can't afford
[03:09.90]Cause I'm a practical american
[03:12.17]From the middle-west
[03:14.96]And I can piss on a grave
[03:17.33]While welcoming guests
[03:22.30]If colds what I am
[03:24.35]I'm cold till the end
[03:29.66]And I felt the luxury of her
[03:35.57]I felt the luxury of her
[03:54.82]Now I'm gonna continue walking
[03:58.86]In the modern world
[04:02.05]Which justifies every egotistical perversion
[04:07.87]With scientific talk
[04:10.43]And new ways to walk
[04:15.09]But I'll remember the religion
[04:16.95]She became to me
[04:20.06]And the other person
[04:21.51]I could have been
[04:24.69]So for now I'll say so long
[04:30.62]I gotta go do wrong
[04:37.44]I gotta go do wrong
[04:42.84]I felt the luxury
[04:48.81]I felt the luxury
[04:54.96]I felt the luxury
[04:59.89]Aah luxury
