youre jumping for your ladies lip
youre so addicted that you cant get clean
and youre craving but makes you ill
you cant control it its doing your head in
well come on over here
its about time your ass was mine
cant say no not until youve tried it
(chorus)
i cant give u what you want but ill give you what you need
and i will take it to you
i cant give you what you want but ill give you what you need
you know youre going to
dont be stupid youre hanging on but you know its useless
i cant give you what you want but ill give you what you need
what you need
what you need oh
what you need is
youre electric but she leaves you cold
you need the shocks she give you you cant let go
and shes a habit you learn to take her lip
and you cant help yourself youve got to scratch that itch
(come on)
well come on over here its about time i blow your mind
dont you dare say no not until youve tried it
(chorus)
what you need is
what you need is
if you cant handle it
what you need is
(chorus)
what you need is
what you need is
what you need is good
