Power Tool
40 Below Summer · Invitation To The Dance
I shut your eyes and I fed you lies
I'm up inside
Now I cannot hide those
Burns on your skin
And the stains on your grin
I took your pain
Now you're dropped again
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
Who takes your hand?
Who makes you dance?
Who's in your pants?
Your lover, player, president
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
I threw you away
I threw you away
I threw you away
Away
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, IÂ’ll use you, confuse you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
I'm up inside
Now I cannot hide those
Burns on your skin
And the stains on your grin
I took your pain
Now you're dropped again
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
Who takes your hand?
Who makes you dance?
Who's in your pants?
Your lover, player, president
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
It's just my power tool
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
You lose - Don't confuse what I say
I took you, then threw you away
You're through - Don't misconstrue what I said
All I wanted was just a little head
I can't feel the way you want me to (Want me to)
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you

Power Tool
40 Below Summer's 'Power Tool' stands as a defining track from their 2013 album 'Invitation To The Dance,' capturing the raw energy of the UK garage revival. The song features a driving, repetitive bassline that anchors its infectious rhythm, characteristic of the genre's late-2000s peak. Released alongside hits like 'Wither Away' and 'Monday Song,' the recording showcases the group's ability to blend soulful vocals with a gritty, dance-floor-ready production style. It remains a staple of their discography, reflecting the era's shift toward more organic, sample-based hip-hop and garage sounds that influenced a generation of artists following in their wake.
