This song appears on both Bumper to Bumper and Nasty Little Thoughts, but according to the album books the lyrics are slightly different. Also, you may have noticed that for some reason the title of the song was changed from "N" to "+". I don't know who made this decision or why they decided to make it.

-----------------------------------
|
|
this just in, where to begin
|
grin and bear it, it's bear and grim
|
adoration, titilation
|
I'm a victim now
|
because she's figured me out
|
|
she lights my candle
|
she has a handle on me
|
it's goin well but I'm scared as hell
|
that she'll figure me out
|
|
she thinks it sacred
|
to be naked
|
but I don't care
|
she's had me there
|
you see she's figured me out
|
|
and I want to shout
|
at the top of my lungs now
|
but oh my god
|
if she hears me she'll come runnin in
|
these are my hands
|
these are my faults
|
these are my nasty little thoughts
|
I wrote em down for you to contemplate
|
at a later date
|
|
well the word is out, what's it all about
|
doubtless shady, no shadow of doubt
|
in moderation this sensation would be fabulous
|
but she's figured me out
|
she's in my shower, for an hour
|
she's just washin' n wonderin
|
and trying to figure me out
|
|
well, you're out there, just stay out there
|
I won't hear but be careful man
|
hey careful man
|
and I'm sleeping now
|
you'll be creeping round
|
just when I was on to something else
|
that's when she figures me out
|
|

This just in...where to begin
|
Grin and bear it, it's bear and grim
|
Adoration, titilation, I'm the victim now
|
Because she's figured me out
|
She lights my candle, she has a handle on me
|
It's going well but I'm scared as hell
|
That she'll figure me out
|
She thinks it's sacred to be naked
|
But I don't care, 'cause she's had me there
|
You see she's figured me out
|
|
And I wanna shout at the top of my lungs now
|
But oh my god, if she hears me she'll come running in...
|
These are my hands, these are my faults
|
These are my plans
|
These are my nasty little thoughs
|
I wrote 'em down for you to contemplate
|
at a later date
|
|
Well the word is out, what's it all about
|
Doubtless shady, no shadow of doubt
|
In moderation, this sensationwould be fabulous
|
But she's figured me out
|
She's in my shower for an hour
|
She's just washin' and wonderin'
|
And trying to figure me out...
|
|
It's a little bit of something that I feel...
|
Oh man, I just can't deal...
|
And other than this distance that has covered me
|
Can't you see that you have smothered me
|
|
Well, you're out there, just stay out there
|
Just when I was on to something else
|
That's when she figures me out
|
