LYRICS FOR "Tattooed Love Boys"
The mid-twenty joys around a heart that's black and blue
The tattooed love boys I tore my knees up getting to you
'Cause I needed to find out what the thing was for been reading
But man the time came to explore
I went apewire 'cause I thought
Like I'd like it little tease
But you mess with the goods doll
Honey you gotta pay
A good time was guaranteed for one and all
The tattoos target practice in the hall
While waiting for their number to get called out
I
I was a good time
At changing tyres upstairs bro
I shot my mouth off
And you showed me what that hole was for
Now I see you all impressed and half undressed
You got paint stick all over the scars and lumps and bumps
Tattooed love boys have got you where I used to lay
Well ha ha and too bad
Stop snivellin'
You're gonna make some plastic surgeon a rich man
Oh
Another human interest story
