[Intro]
Oh, my God
Oh, my God, why?
Oh, my God, why?
Why?

[Verse 1: alt-J]
I want to do all the things your lungs do so well
I'm gonna bed into you like a cat beds into a bean bag
Turn you inside out to lick you like a crisp packet
(Turn you inside out to lick you)

Ooooh, devour me
Ooooh, Lou Lou, let the cover girls sing

[Bridge: alt-J]
I want every other freckle...

Ooooh, Lou Lou, let the cover girls sing

[Verse 2: alt-J]
I want to be every button you press
And all mouths that surround you
Yes, I'm gonna roll around you
Like a cat rolls around the chrysanthemums
I'm gonna kiss you like the sun grounds you
(I'm gonna kiss you like the sun grounds you)

[Bridge: alt-J]
I want every other freckle...

[Hook: alt-J]
Devour me
Let the cover girls sing!

alt-J is an English indie rock band that consists of vocalist and guitarist Joe Newman, keyboardist and bassist Gus Unger-Hamilton and drummer Thom Green. Gwil Sainsbury was the band’s bassist before leaving the band in early 2014.

Formed at Leeds University and signed to a label in Cambridge, UK, the band originally made songs on Garageband before releasing them under the pseudonym ∆.

∆’s name takes a little explaining. Pronounced alt-J, the delta sign is inserted when you press alt and J on a Mac keyboard.
