Take Me Lyrics by Rough Trade

1977

[Chorus]
Take me, take me, through the doors of paradise
Don't leave me stranded on the threshold, no no
That's not nice, that isn't nice

[Verse 1]
You know you look so saintly in your white Mercedes Benz
You keep insinuating there's a pleasure palace within
And that halo round your head really has me quite convinced
So if you don't come through then you've committed a sin

[Chorus]
Take me take me through the doors of paradise
Don't leave me strandеd on the threshold, no no
That's not nice, that isn't nicе

[Verse 2]
Sex offenders, junkies, murderers, and thieves
They're on the elevator waiting for the priest to leave
They want to suck the blood from the overweight bourgeoisie
They're a blessing in disguise but they're called a social disease
But take them too what the hell

[Chorus]
Take them, take them, through the doors of paradise
Don't leave them fighting for survival, no no
That's not nice, that isn't nice
Take me, take me, I said take me!
Take me, take me, take me
Take me, take me, through the doors of paradise
Don't leave me stranded on the threshold
That's not nice, that isn't nice

Ah yeah!
