Skin Pump It Up
(Elvis Costello) (originally performed by Elvis Costello; from his album "This Year's Model") I've been on tenterhooks, endin' in dirty looks Listenin' to the muzak, thinkin' 'bout this 'n' that She said that's that, I don't wanna chitterchat Turn it down a little bit or turn it down flat Pump it up - when you don't really need it, yeah 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 Chorus: Pump it up - until you can feel it Pump it up - when you don't really need it, yeah Oh yeah, when you don't, when you don't, don't, don't really need it, ow She's been a bad girl, she's like a chemical Though you try to stop it, she's hard to knock out You wanna torture her, you wanna talk to her All the things you bought for her, putting up her temperature (chorus) Out in the fashion show, down in the bargain bin You put your passion on, under the pressure pin Fall into submission, hit-and-run transmission No use wishin' now for any other sin (chorus repeats 2x) You don't really need it, you don't really need it Don't really need it, don't really need it Don't really need it, don't really need it No no ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
