Sheltering her ego on the edge of a floodlit arc 
 She'll contemplate seduction, she'll calculate the catch 
 When she moved, her presence speared me 
 When she spoke, her words ensnared me 
 Watch the lizard, watch the lizard, 
 Watch the lizard with the crimson veil 

 She [bad word] my heart in the depth of a satin grave 
 As I lay in sweating monologue I sensed the lovelight fade 
 Within the spiral of the cigarette 
 You betrayed your bedside etiquette 
 I saw the lizard, I saw the lizard 
 I touched the lizard with the crimson veil 

 I've seen a different doorway shut a million times before 
 The smiling she chameleon, the smiling vinyl whores 

 They know what they want, they sing your name 
 And glide between the sheets 
 I never say no, in chemical glow we'll let our bodies meet 
 So was it just a [bad word]  was it just a [bad word]  just another [bad word] I said 
 Loving just for laughs, carnal autograph, lying on a lizard's bed 
 So was it just a [bad word]  was it just a [bad word]  just another [bad word] I bled 
 Degraded and alone, raped and still forlorn 
 Betrayed on a lizard's bed 
 We chameleon, we chameleon, we chameleon
