My love comes, and when it does
It's a crazy kind of
Selective affection
My love flows like a wise guy's tie
In the zanniest of directions
My love protection, my love erection
You better get some of my infection
My love can be-a-bigger than
The hoover dam
My love can hide behind
A grain of sand
My love for life is fueled by
The love for my man
I love his mother and
The silly mystic man
Some people think he's bad
They say he doesn't laugh
And ask my dad

My love is death to apartheid rule
My love is deepest depth, the ocean blues

My love is the Zulu groove
My love is keep it or move
My love is a laughin' boozed
My love is the pussy juice
My love can't be refused
My love is gettin' my food
My love, my love

My love began from love
My love for an unknown grubby bum
My love for the baby suckin' on his thumb
My love for the best set of buns
My love for the feel of the drums
My love for a butter knuckle hands
My love for the swedes in the bad
My love for the legs that I spin
My love for the fat mingy
My love, my love
My love is my gross inner self
My love is my dick in my head
My love is my gross inner self
My love is my dick in my head

    General Comment:I see there is a little misunderstanding with the lyrics. ladee..whatever is correct. To sir syco... it sounds like Anthony is saying "the love for my BAND," That is what I thought at first, but when you read the lyrics book it says "love for my Man" if he said Band it wouldn't make sense to say "I love his mother" right after. So with that said, This is a really amazing song. It's about loving duh!

    General Comment:this has got to be one of my favourite chilis songs, its just so different to the others, and i think it describes their love for everything in life as well as life itself.

    General Comment:One of those songs you can listen to over and over.. I noticed an error in the lyrics and the corrections though.
    "My love for life is fueled by
    The love for my man", is meant to go
    "My love for life is fueled by
    The love for my BAND" there u go!

    General Comment:this song is pure art. I love in the beginning how it gets more and more intense until "ask my dad" it just explodes. i get such a good feeling right at that part

    General Comment:yeah, ant said that flea said in scar tissue that in love trilogy it talks about loving all the things that arent necessarily loveable and thats just what the chilis are. they were so focussed on being completely different then the next man that instead of writing a song about being in love with a woman or man, they talk about loving the things that arent really considered to be loveable
