Blow Up 04:27
I like strawberry shortcake You’ll take a cherry pie We’ll have the lot when the mood is right In the back of a taxi with an appetite Well, I’m fully equipped I don’t need no DIY, I, I, I I’ve got a glue that’ll stick us some more We end up in a pile on the kitchen floor (While you’re down there) You say this isn’t what you mean It’s really not your scene Oh really? Well, I’m bobbin’ I’m Cock Robin Down in the basement club Where the tunes drive our fantasies And I’m talking to you (What, me?) Yeah, you! (No!) Yeah (Wooh!) She’s pretty And you’re debonair Well, I could tag along and be your Lucky Pierre (Oh yeah!) I’ve got the urge, and it’s clear to see A click of your fingers brings me to my knees (While you’re down there) You say this wasn’t what you meant And pull me down again You’ve got a nerve And it’s all I deserve Don’t talk with your mouth full, baby You know the girls are outside And I’ve still got my pride Don’t talk with your mouth full, mouth full Just blow... up Just blow Well, I’ve got boy one, boy two, boy three, boy four (Knock knock!) Knocking on my door So hurry up, man I’ve got a firm commitment to a happy ending And I’ve got boy one, boy two, boy three, boy four, boy five Queuing up outside So come along, come, come along (Hey!) Your account’s in the red and your status is pending (While you’re down there) What you said then, I couldn’t say I’m otherwise engaged You’ve got a nerve And it’s all I deserve Don’t talk with your mouth full, baby You know the press are outside And I’ve still got my pride You keep telling me... Don’t talk with your mouth full Oh, no, baby, please don’t laugh Cos there’s people taking photographs Through the open window And yeah, your hair looks fine, oh They want a piece of this as well They’re all messed up and I can tell Given half a chance They’d be right where you are Everybody sing (You’ve got a nerve) Don’t you know, you’ve got a nerve (And it’s all I deserve) It’s all that I deserve now (Don’t talk with your mouth full) Don’t talk with your mouth full Ooh, ooh (You know the world is outside) You know that there’s a whole big wide world outside (And I’ve still got my pride) I’ve still got a little shred of pride now Don’t talk with your mouth full, oh! Just blow... up Just blow Just blow... up Just blow Just blow Just blow, just blow, just blow, just blow

Rubber Band 02:05
It’s complicated I’m not sure what I should do So caffeinated I’m shaking like a leaf buzzing for you Send for a doctor Get me Tramadol, need to get through but It couldn’t stop ya I’m all out rubber banding for you, oh! You’re elastic Built from plastic There was a safety net and I fell right past it (oh oh) Pass me strung out vibrating in the hall...way C-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-Come on Rise up get into it too You’re such a fun one But this relationship’s under review Oh, did I mention? My limits are tested by you Don’t stop the tension Can’t help rubber banding for you, oh! You’re elastic Built from plastic There was a tipping point and I flew right past it (oh oh) Pass me spun out rotating in the hall...way A rubber band... Rubber up, boy, I’m ready for you Oh! You’re elastic Built from plastic There was a safety net and I fell right past it (oh oh) Pass me strung out vibrating in the hall...way Don’t make a sound, just waiting in the door...way Instinctive alternating over your...oh, oh I’m rubber banding for you
