Maybe I missed this but has there been a post of these lyrics or a discussion on the lyrics or the title?

From some lyrics site, very unofficial:
It ain't no big deal that, I see you layin' there I see you leanin' against the wall It ain't nobody's business Who you see or who you kiss I feel you breathing in the hall
It's okay, Stay the night for fun I won't stain your blood I won't stain love (x2)
Got an eye for an exit And an ear that just begs to I hear does anybody here think you're great Forever they ignore us Not the guys that only bores us Together we're gonna love everything that they hate
I don't care If she's right Cross my heart Hope to die Is it love?
They're gonna talk about us They're gonna stare when we walk by They're gonna talk about us For the first time in our lives
Is it love? Is it love?
edit: I've modified some but they still don't all seem right.

This is how I've heard the following lines:
I see you layin' there I see you leanin' against the wall
Stay the night for fun...?
Forever they ignore us, now the gossip only bores us

You know I don't think I even read those before posting that. I head Stay the night for fun as well. I'll see if I can find some better ones.
Ok every site seems to have those lyrics, I'm going to modify in my original post cause I'm sure we're right.

Ok - this is what I'm hearing:
It ain't no big deal then I feel you leanin’ I see you leanin' against the wall It ain't nobody's business Who you see or who you kiss I feel you breathing in the hall
It's okay, Stay the night for fun I won't stain your blood I won't stain you, love (x2)
Got an eye for an exit And an ear that just begs to hear "Does anybody here now think you're great" Forever they ignore us Now the gossip only bores us Together we're gonna love everything that they hate
I don't care If she's bad Cross my heart Hope to die Is it love?
They're gonna talk about us They're gonna stare when we walk by They're gonna talk about us For the first time in our lives
Is it love? Is it love?

I wonder what the phrase "Stain Yer Blood" means. I've never heard it used before. All I know is that I've listened to the song about a thousand times since I got "Besterberg," and I just can't get enough of it!!!

All I know is that I've listened to the song about a thousand times since I got "Besterberg," and I just can't get enough of it!!! I've taken the meaning to the phrase "Stain Yer Blood" 2 ways. 1. Get under your skin - i.e. it's just a fling not a relationship 2. I'm clean - don't have AIDS (or other STD)

I've taken that phrase as "I won't get you pregnant" or as Caroline mentioned "I won't give you a STD".[quote author=caroline board=Lyrics thread=1115943144 post=1117196846] I wonder what the phrase "Stain Yer Blood" means.

Early version, thanks to Blasty:
Lyrics, from what I can tell:
STAIN YOUR BLOOD (Early Version) A letter came from Kentucky Put the needle in her arm came from nowhere Easin' down the farm
If you stay for fun, then you'll stain my blood
Body holds Where the hair shoots out And leave 'em grounded Stay and she stay, just for fun
C'mon I'll stain your blood Just let me stain your sweet blood
Dockers and Levi's that we call for pants takin' a love folks' turn stutterers' hands
If you stay tonight for fun, I'm gonna stain your blood Stain your sweet blood

I always thought that this was a great example of Paul's love for wordplay. That's because I assumed all the lyrics sites had the correct lyrics (not sure where they get them from). Based on this, it seems to me that he's playing on the way the words are spelled and joined versus how they sound when sung a certain way. This applies to the first section and the chorus. Below are the lyrics that are posted on most sites shown on the left (except for the mistake of floor for wall), and the lyrics as they sound when Paul sings them to convey an alternate meaning. The true meaning is of the title is: I won't stay in your blood, I won't stay in love. It fits. He's a clever apple.
Written Lyrics Lyrics As Heard
It ain't no big deal that It ain't no big deal that I feel you are layin' him I feel you are layin' him I see you lain against the wall I see you leanin' against the wall It ain't nobody's business It ain't nobody's business Who you see or who you kiss Who you see or who you kiss I feel you breathing in the hall I feel you breathing in the hall
It's okay It's okay Stained and not for fun Stayin' the night for fun I won't stain your blood I won't stay in your blood I won't stain love (x2) I won't stay in love (x2)
BTW, the melody Paul uses for the verses is almost the same as for The Cure's Boys Don't Cry.
