  918>(sleaze)
  (sleaze)
  Lipstick marks on pint beer mugs
  And love bites on the neck
  Take me in your back room
  And you pay for what you get
  Diana dors all washed up
  Dolores del rio
  Hanging round the lowlife dives
  And other zombie go-go's
 
 
  Sleaze - can be very tragic
  Sleaze - but I only see the magic
  Sleaze - can be very flashy
  Sleaze - it's at it's best when trashy
  Take it, shake it, fly with it
  Do it, screw it till you're sick
  Pull a trick, get a hit,
  Love it till you're sick and tired of it
  Sleaze
  Sleaze (shake it)
 
 
  Hanging round these back streets
  Inner soho after hours
  Feeling very used and I'm feeling very tired
  Someone threw a party (shake it)
  Someone threw a fit (take it)
  Baby let me mambo with you a little bit
  Mambo (mambo)
  Mambo (and all those little spanish hustles) hey!
 
 
  Did I tell you all my secrets (no)
  About the things I did (I did? )
  About people I went with
  How they treated me like shit (that's right)
  How you fell out of bed
  And I had to drag you back in
  Back into my life
  Into my sleazy life
  (sleazy life)
 
 
  Hey
  Hey
  (shake it, take it)
 
 
  Did I ever tell you I loved you (never)
  That we could be so good together
  Hanging out on the street together
  Selling our meat together
  Sleaze hey!
  I love you
  Sleaze
 
 
  (the tinkle of the piano)
  (it drags me under the table)
  (in a slow sweet fuck)
 
 
  Shake it, take it
  Sleaze - can be very tragic
  Sleaze - but I only see the magic
  Sleaze - can be very trashy (trashy)
  Sleaze - but it's at it's best when flashy
  Take it, shake it, fly with it
  Do it, screw it till you're sick
  Pull a trick, get a hit,
  Love it till you're sick and tired of it
 
 
  Sleaze
 
 
  I've worn these rags for days
  And now I feel just sleepy
  All these looks and hooded crooks
  Are making me feel creepy
  A greasy greek is eyeing me
  And making me an offer (ha!)
  I take his bribes and cigarettes
  Move on to find another (haha haha)
 
 
  Sleaze - can be very trashy
  Sleaze - but I like it best when it's flashy
  Sleaze - hey
  Sleaze - hey
 
 
  Shake it (strange when [? ] is a way of earning money)
  Take it, hey (some are cruel, some are kind)
  (all are necessary)
 
 
  Take it, shake it, fly with it
  Do it, screw it till you're sick
  Make a hit, pull a trick
  Love it till you're sick and tired of it
 
 
  Sleaze
  Sleaze
 
 
  I'm 21 and I think I love you
 
 
  Hey
  Hey
  Hey
 
 
  Ugh!
