Radiate simply, the candle is burning, so low for me

Generate me limply, can't seem to place your name, cherie

To rearrange all these thoughts in a moment is suicide

Come to a strange place, we'll talk over old times we never smile

Somebody called me Sebastian

Somebody called me Sebastian

Work out a rhyme, toss me the time, lay me, you're mine

And we all know, oh yeah!

Your Persian eyes sparkle; your lips, ruby blue, never speak a sound

And you, oh so gay, with Parisian demands, you can run-around

And your view of society screws up my mind like you'll never know

Lead me away, come inside, see my mind in kaleidoscope

Somebody called me Sebastian

Somebody called me Sebastian

Mangle my mind, love me sublime, do it in style,

So we all know, oh yeah!

You're not gonna run, babe, we only just begun, babe, to compromise

Slagged in a Bowery saloon, love's a story we'll serialize

Pale angel face; green eye-shadow, the glitter is outasight

No courtesan could begin to decipher your beam of light

Somebody called me Sebastian

Somebody called me Sebastian

Dance on my heart, laugh, swoop and dart, la-di-di-da,

Now we all know you,
