Fatale Abstraction

I'm besotted with the brilliant song "Strange Powers" by the Magnetic Fields

on the Ferris wheel, looking out on Coney Island
under more stars than there are prostitues in Thailand
our hair in the air, our lips blue from cotton candy
when we kiss it feels like a flying saucer landing
and I can't sleep cause you got strange powers
you're in my dreams, strange powers
in Las Vegas where the electric bills are straggring
the decor hog wild and the entertainment saccharin
what a golden age, what a time of right and reason
the consumer's king and unhappiness is treason
and I can't sleep cause you got strange powers
you're in my dreams, strange powers
the sun falls down like money, the moon pours down like mercury
the stars fall down like money, and you come down to me
and I can't sleep cause you got strange powers
you're in my dreams, strange powers

Magnetic Fields' Stephin Merritt wrote & sang those hilariously dour songs from the Lemony Snicket movie, just in case you're wondering.
