Subterranean Desire - Oppenheimer Analysis

It isn’t just ambition

Or a question of career

It’s a wonderful obsession

Like a passionate affair

I left you all alone

Every night and every day

Left to your own decision

While we threw our lives away

Subterranean desire

Goes round and round a ring of fire

Subterranean desire

Goes round and round a ring of fire

Don’t ask me what I’m doing

Every night and every day

Better find yourself a lover

To pass the time away

It isn’t what I wanted

But it happened anyway

I needed something special

And I know you’re gonna stay
