Anouk - Girl
Girl girl girl
When I hear him talk loudly
Ooh my daily mind gets blocked beautiful girl
Speak up 'cause my jaw is tightly locked
Which is good, good for me good girl
It hots like a warning sun
I'm too blind to see well
Speak up yes I'm coming down
With an ice cold, hot fever
Ice cold fever
Ice cold fast fever
Stook up my systematically clean hands they're clinging
So I just keep going fast
I don't know where I belong
But I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
But I belong
Girl girl girl
Get it daily while it's hot they say
You see I'm sadly burning up here
I want to but I just can't stop
And it really hurts
It hurts like hell smart girl
You turn me inside out and upside down
Ooh you got me head over high heels
I'm stuck
Yes I'm coming down with an ice cold fever Ice cold fever Ice cold fever, aha
Stook up my terribly hopelesshands they're clinging
So I just keep going
I don't know where I belong
But I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
But I belong
But I belong
Rapidly stook up my small hands they're clinging
So I just keep going
I don't know where I belong
But I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
But I strongly belong
Oh girl, yeah I belong
To you, you, you
To you, yeah you
To you, you, you
To you, yeah you
To you, you, you it tastes wonderful
Yeah I belong to you
Say gently you yeah you
Could I belong to you
Alright
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!

Extract 1 - Taken and adapted from The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown (2003)

Robert Langdon stood beside the sinks, staring at cryptographer Sophie Neveu. Only minutes ago Langdon had listened to her phone message thinking the cryptographer must be insane. Do not react to this message. Just listen. You are in danger now. Follow my directions. Filled with uncertainty, Langdon had decided to do as Sophie advised. He told the inspector who was questioning him that the phone message was regarding a friend back home. Then he had asked to use the toilet at the end of the corridor. Now he stood beside her. /

Extract 2 - Taken and adapted from Notes on a Scandal by Zoë Heller (2003)

The other night at dinner, Sheila talked about the first time she and the boy kissed. I had heard most of it before, of course, but this time something came up. I happened to ask her if anything about the embrace had surprised her. She laughed. Yes, the smell of the whole thing had been surprising, she said. She hadn’t expected his odour and if she had, she would probably have guessed at something teenagey: bubble gum, cola, feet … But what she had actually inhaled was soap and laundry. /
