Pretenders - Tattooed Love Boys lyrics

The mid-twenty joys
Around a heart that's black and blue
Tattooed love boys
I tore my knees up getting to you
'Cause, I needed
To find out what the thing was for
Been reading man, the time came to explore

I went apewire 'Cause, I thought
Like I'd like it little tease
But, I didn't mean it
But, you mess with the goods, doll
Honey, you gotta pay yeah
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, I, I found out what the wait was about

I was a good time yeah, I got pretty good
At changing tires 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
But, you know what they say

"Stop snivellin'
You're gonna make some plastic
Surgeon a rich man"
Oh, but the prestige and the glory
Another human interest story you are that
