THE LYRICS:

Bike rider use caution
I'm calling my doctor
I like you
You come from far away, maybe outer space
I adore you
I'm not sweet sixteen
But I swear that you made me feel that way
Locked behind my door
You said get up off the floor
I was near you

Bike rider take notice
I'm getting my life together
I know it's safe to say you don't feel the same way
You're such the cosmic friend
You can do what you want
You know that I don't want to trap you
I just want you to know
I hope you show up once in awhile

Chorus:

I like the way that you hold my hand in the night time
I like the way that I rub your stomach in the night time
I like the way that I rub your head in the night time
I'll be okay when you go...

Bike rider
Abstract poetry on my guitar
Almost feel safe enough to show you who I am
And find out who you are

When you inevitably go I just want you to know
That I'm thinking
Behind the twenty in you
Is someone I can't see through

Repeat Chorus

There's communism in the air tonight
I like your soft smooth skin
I love the way you won't stop talking
There's communism in the air tonight
I can't believe you'd let someone as ugly as me touch you.
My bike rider
