The easiest and quickest song to tab so far! Only 2 guitars. Guitar 1 is a clean 
electric which plays figure 1 played where indicated and guitar 2 is a distorted 
electric which plays the solo and a few random bends in the background just 
before the solo begins which I haven't bothered to tab. 

Guitar 1 - Clean Electric 
Guitar 2 - Distorted Electric 
============================== 

verse 1 
======= 
Sheltering her ego on the edge of a floodlit arc 
She'll contemplate seduction, she'll calculate the catch 
When she moved, her presence speared me 
When she spoke, her words ensnared me 

Chorus 
====== 
Watch the lizard, watch the lizard,  
Watch the lizard with the crimson veil  

verse 2 
======= 
She crucified my heart in the depth of a satin grave 
As I lay in sweating monologue I sensed the lovelight fade 
Within the spiral of the cigarette 
You betrayed your bedside etiquette 

Chorus 
====== 
I saw the lizard, I saw the lizard 
I touched the lizard with the crimson veil 

Synth Solo

I've seen a different doorway shut a million times before 
The smiling she chameleon, the smiling vinyl whores

Outro 
===== 
They know what they want, they sing your name  
And glide between the sheets 
I never say no, in chemical glow we'll let our bodies meet 
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I said 
Loving just for laughs, carnal autograph, lying on a lizard's bed 
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I bled 
Degraded and alone, raped and still forlorn 
Betrayed on a lizard's bed 
We chameleon, we chameleon, we chameleon
