Sentient Cement Coverpile - Elvis Costello

Pump It Up - Elvis Costello

I've been on tenter-hooks ending in dirty looks
Listening 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 under hand that she wouldn't understand

Pump it up when you don't really need it
Pump it up until you can feel 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 when you don't really need it
Pump it up until you can feel it

Out in the fashion show, down in the bargain bin
You put your passion out under the presure pin
Fall into submission, hit and run transmision
No use wishing now for any other sin

Pump it up when you don't really need it
Pump it up until you can feel it
