(Sample A: This'll be our final briefing.)
(Sample B: Oh, god!)

(Sample C: We're outta here!)
(Sample D: Cheers, mate.) x 3
(Sample E: Yo, Franky!)

(Sample G: [woman laughing])

Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
He's all right
Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
Outta sight

He's the man with the eyes of gold
Gazing at you, but when he takes hold
You can't say no, ain't no question of superiority
Ask the vast majority of ladies who wrote the book
Who took one look, and they just shook
I don't wanna say the man is a cradle robber
But a lot of you folks better lock up your daughters

(Sample H: Boogie down! Get down with--) x 8

Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
He's all right
(Sample B)
Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
Outta sight
(Sample G)

Pony tail is a bonus tail
The more the better, revolving on his rusty nail
Building up a bad reputation
Whirling dervish of heart palpitation
Stuck to the hospital bed, get the tests done
Are you scared? You know you can't run
Pull the sheets off, start to sweat
It'll be a one-off, then he'll jet
You'll grow wings you thought you never had
Then he'll spread them and love you 'til you go mad
Military Casanova with the night light
You can't fight the might with the right height
When you see that pink gun loading
To do some love volcano exploding
Wave your arms in the air, conduct yourself accordingly,
Conduct the symphony, hear the cacophony

(Sample H) x 8

Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
He's all right
(Sample I: Everybody's a critic!)
Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
Outta sight

I hear you scream, louder, stop it some more
Ride the white horse until you feel sore
Would you like to be another statistic
Another notch in a case of lipstick
White collar worker with a thang of death
Flirting with the Grim Reaper 'til he's out of breath
He's on a mission to show you a position
He once had in a vision of a nuclear fission

(Sample J: I love you...)
(Sample K: I feel sore.) x 4

(Sample L: Take this outside.)

(Sample M: Black is the devil's colour!)
(Sample N: Amen, brother.)
(Sample M)
(Sample O: Come, come on!) x 4

He's got an arsenal of machine gun cliches
Eat you alive, spit you out on a bad day
He'll make you dance on your mama's bed
I got a friend who's gone crazy from the things he said
Late at night, I can hear him chanting
Dog panting, raving, and ranting
He needs a spanking 'til he's green
Move over, he's a sex marine

Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
He's all right
(Sample B)
Ooh, you know what I mean, sex marine
Outta sight

Notes:

  • "Sex Marine" is said to have been one of the first songs the band ever wrote and recorded.
  • The samples were recorded from a TV via tape. The glut of these come from a vintage mobster movie. Sample B seems to be from a pornographic film.
  • Sample H comes from "Jungle Boogie" by Kool and the Gang.
