Shock and awe! Love is war! It's torch song time. KD Lang could sings this. Rufus Wainwright could do it justice. Until they get around to recording it, Jaybee, abused lover, pours his own heart out.

Lyrics
Conquistador
you and your army beating down my door
You take the treasure
and you still want more
You call this love, I call it war
You came across the world to find me
Set your snares to trap and bind me
Sank a deep dark shaft to mine me
Drag me under
Steal my thunder
rape and plunder
Conquistador
Storm my defences, fling me to the floor
Man on a mission to explore
Shock and awe. Shock and awe!
Conquistador
you and your army beating down my door
You take the treasure
and you still want more
You call this love, I call it war
Beneath your armour does a heart beat still?
You don't know if you want to kiss or kill
So what will happen when you've had your fill
One day your galleon will sink to the sea floor
and you'll be washed up on a barren shore
Conquistador, conquistador
Dig for oil on foreign soil,
everything you touch you spoil
Toreador
Is this what you want, all this blood and gore?
Is this a kiss or just an open jaw?
Oh, Matador
You pierce my flesh until I'm red and raw
Leave me trembling with shock and awe
You call this love, I call it war
