I've been on tenderhooks, ending in dirty looks

List'nin’ 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

Hey!

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, puttin’ 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 wishin’ 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

Don't really need it

Don't really need it

Don't really need it
