| Lyrics: | (Elvis Costello)
I've been on tenterhooks
Ending in dirty looks,
Listen to the
muzak,
Thinking 'bout this 'n' that.
She said that's that.
I don't wanna
chitter-chat.
Turn it down a little bit
Or turn it down flat.
Pump it up, when you
don't really need it.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Down in the pleasure
centre,
Hell bent or heaven sent,
Listen to the propaganda,
Listen to the latest
slander.
There's nothing underhand
That she wouldn't understand.
Pump it up, until
you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.
She's been a bad
girl.
She's like a chemical.
Though you try to stop it,
She's like a narcotic.
You
wanna torture her.
You wanna talk to her.
All the things you bought for her,
Putting up
your temperature.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really
need it.
Out in the fashion show,
Down in the bargain bin,
You put your passion
out
Under the pressure pin.
Fall into submission,
Hit-and-run transmission.
No use
wishing now for any other sin.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you
don't really need it.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't
really need it.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really
need it.
You don't really need it
You don't really need it
You don't really
need it |
