Lyrics
My body is sanctuary,
My blood is pure.
Doot doo doo,
Doot doot doo doo.
You want me bad,
I think you're cool,
But I'm not sure,
Doot doo doo,
Doot doot doo doo.
Follow me don't be such a holy fool.
Follow me I need something more from you.
It's not about sex or champagne you holy fool.
Doot doo doo,
Doot doot doo doo.
If you want me meet me at electric chapel,
(Electric chapel, electric chapel)
If you want me meet me,
At electric chapel,
(Electric chapel, electric chapel)
If you want to steal my heart away,
Meet me meet me baby in a safe place,
Come on meet me
In electric chapel.
Confess to me,
Where you have been,
Next to the bar.
Doot doo doo,
Doot doot doo doo.
Pray for your sins,
Right under the glass disco ball.
Doot doo doo,
Doot doo doo doo.
Follow me don't be such a holy fool.
Follow me I need something sacred from you.
Together we'll both find a way,
To make a pure love work in a dirty way
If you want me meet me at electric chapel,
(Electric chapel, electric chapel)
If you want me meet me,
At electric chapel,
(Electric chapel, electric chapel)
If you want to steal my heart away,
Meet me meet me baby in a safe place,
Come on meet me
In electric chapel.
Oh, oh,
Uh uh uh,
Uh uh uh.
Oh, oh,
Uh uh uh,
Uh uh uh.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
Meet me, meet me, meet me.
Meet me, meet me, meet me.
Meet me, meet me, meet me.
Meet me, meet me.
If you want me meet me,
In electric chapel,
(Meet me, meet me)
Oh, if you want me meet me,
At electric chapel,
(Meet me, meet me)
If you want to steal my heart away,
Meet me, meet me, baby, in a safe place,
Come on meet me in electric chapel.
Oh. (Meet me, meet me)
(Meet me, meet me)
(Meet me, meet me)
