Verse
B7 
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

Listen to the propaganda, listen to the latest slander

Verse

She's been a bad girl, she's like a chemical

All the things you bought for her, putting up your temperature

No use wishing now for any other sin
