Answer
Dear Claire,

HYPNOTIZED was done by the group COPY-RIGHT. It was a huge hit here in Manila back in 1987. Infos about the group is rare, though. Here's how it goes:

HYPNOTIZED / COPY-RIGHT

A window blind is casting shadows on your naked skin
Despite your beauty, you're not human
With eyes supposed to kill you
I'm lookin' out the window
I can see the crowd have been in gray
And in the city by the pouring rain
And I don't have to stay.

Chorus:
Hypnotized by strange affection
Hypnotized with no way out
Hypnotized. complete surrender
Hypnotized when you touch me
Hypnotized.

And reason tells us this room's danger
The hunter's almost there outside
Tryin' to round us is the thief
Stealin' thoughts and mem'ry.

I'm lookin' out the window
I can see our soul-ghost drift away
Out of this jungle and the pouring rain
Can we ever be the same?
(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental)
(Repeat Chorus 2X)
(Instrumental to fade)

Maraming salamat po!!
