The monkey knows how you'll react 
Creating want by holding back 
Like some reverse pyromaniac 
Let me try, baby, try 

I propped my window up and then 
I turned my back to lure you in 
To rifle through what 
I might have been 
Let me try, baby, try 

Baby, please -- let me begin 
Let me be your heroin 
Hate the sinner but love the sin 
Let me be your heroin 

We have crossed [bad word] 
Our ship awash, [bad word] gone 
The rats have fled but I'm hanging on 
Let me try, baby, try 

Baby, please -- let me begin 
Let me be your heroin 
Hate the sinner but love the sin 
Let me be your heroin
