Shock On The Tube (don't Want Love) Lyrics - 10 Cc

I was travelling home on the subway 

When this vision got on at Maida Vale 

And as I casually eyed the classifieds 

She sat down next to me 

Every head in the carriage was wondering 

I replied with a smile on my face 

And as I slipped into the arms of Morpheus 

To daydream the rest of the way 

She was a smooth operator 

You could see it in her dress 

I said I'd like to see you later 

But I didn't want to press 

I was homing like a scanner 

Did a mental strip tease 

But she knew that she was special 

And she came on like a tease 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love 

Not looking for tenderness 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love 

She was a headstrong woman 

With a demon in her blood 

Through the window in her eyes 

I saw fire in her soul 

And I knew if I pursued it 

My fingers would be burned 

Like a moth round a candle 

I was momentarily stunned 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love 

Not looking for tenderness 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love 

The carriage was spinning 

We were up on the floor 

She was whirling like a dervish 

I was whirling like a fool 

My reactions were dimming 

Like an alcoholic haze 

I could hear people clapping 

I was stumbling in a daze 

I was stumbling in a daze 

My eyes tried to focus 

I was suddenly aware 

She was newborn naked 

I was altogether bare 

There were shouts all around us 

There were clothes on the floor 

As I tried to find my senses 

I was sliding down the door 

Down a coal black tunnel 

I was slipping away 

Then I felt the water hit me 

And I heard somebody say 

Better get yourself together 

This is the end of the line 

When I looked for my woman 

I'd been dreaming all the time 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love 

Not looking for tenderness 

Don't want love 

Just looking for happiness 

Don't want love
