Scary Song Lyrics:

"Love Bites"
The Lyrics:
Into your room
Where in deep sleep
There you lie still
To you I creep
...
Now you are mine
In my control
One taste of your life
And I own your soul
Why:
At first hearing it sounds like a vampire attack. A bit later it's less scary when one realizes it's really about sex.
