Lyrics:
Taboo
Taboo
Taboo
Forbidden fruit in the garden of pleasure
A bounty of beauty, a hidden treasure
Unexplainable, unobtainable
That is the essence of you
Taboo
Taboo
The essence of you
Taboo
Taboo
A delicate red rose with thorns for protection
A profound picture of prickly perfection
Exclusive and elusive
That is the quality of you
Taboo
Taboo
The quality of you
Taboo
Taboo
An elegant elixir with a tart aftertaste
A bittersweet mixture of grit and grace
Delicious and capricious
That is the spirit of you
You are mysterious
You make me delirious
You are taboo, taboo
Taboo
Taboo
Taboo
Taboo
The spirit of you
Taboo
Taboo
The essence of you
Taboo
Taboo
The quality of you
(Instrumental interlude)
(fade)
Taboo
Taboo
Taboo
Taboo
