Matter of fact Quote by Roisin Murphy
““When I think that I'm over you I'm overpowered Your date on my data The chromosomes match Exact as in matter A matter of fact These amourant feelings A cognitive state Need the love object To reciprocate When I think that I'm over you I'm overpowered It's long overdue I'm overpowered When I think that I'm over you I'm overpowered It's long overdue I'm overpowered A chemical reason If reason's your game A chemical needing Is there in the brain With preprogrammed meanings Like a little more pep Alien feelings We have to accept When I think that I'm over you I'm overpowered It's long overdue I'm overpowered When I think that I'm over you I'm overpowered It's long overdue I'm overpowered As science struggles on to try to explain Oxytoxins flowing ever into my brain As science struggles on to try to explain Oxytoxins flowing ever into my brain””
