[Verse 1]
She's a caged animal, London by night
Crashing lights and cymbals, queens of twilight
And if I was you, I'd use the loo before the long drive
And we complement each other just like Satan and Christ

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby
When I am laid to rest
May my laughter remain
Like your kiss blew me away

[Chorus]
Capture the spirit
I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me how?

[Verse 2]
I wear my hair fizzy and I don't copy no style
'Cause kissin' and a-scrubbin', it has consequences
You're on the bus again, past Big Ben and you're playin' the wildcard
Tell your ASBO friend to sling his hook and, "Go make your girl smile"

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause, baby
When I am laid in earth
May my laughter remain
Like your kiss blew me away
Left your scent on my pillow
Sister Rosetta was playin'
The congregation insane
Drinkin' in the house with no name
[Chorus]
Capture the spirit
I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
'Cause I am the landlord
And I'll be my troubadour
Was it better before me?
Won't you show me how, how?

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
You gotta capture the spirit
Oh, I gotta know right now
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
I am the landlord
And I'll be my troubadour
Was it better before me?
You just don't know how
Answer your spirit
And le-le-let it all hang out
I see you before me
Won't you show me now?
I am the landlord
You'll be my troubadour
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Won't you show me how, how? Ow
