I ve been on tenterhooks
ending in dirty looks
list ning 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 temp rature.
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.
