PULP LYRICS - I Want You

"I Want You"



Hey, / you can look, you can look just like anyone else

if that's what you want to do. / I,

I could laugh, I could laugh in your face if I want / oh, but I'm not going to.

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

When we met last week on Saturday,

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

I couldn't make a sentence, / I couldn't even say / what I meant to say:

that I want you / (it doesn't hurt to say I want you), I need you

(I never thought I'd say I need you), I'll keep you,

oh yes I'll keep you and I'll throw myself away, away, away,

and I'll break you / because I lose myself inside you, I'll make you

fit in the space that I provide you, I'll take you,

oh yes, I'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.

Yes, / yes, you're all, yes you're all that I ever desire,

still I'll kill you in the end.

When, / when it seems, when it seems that it's getting too soft,

when you lapse into a friend,

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

There's someone just behind the door

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

so don't betray your feelings, / no don't talk anymore,

never dare to say / that I want you

(it doesn't hurt to say I want you), I need you

(I never thought I'd say I need you), I'll keep you,

oh yes I'll keep you and I'll throw myself away, away, away,

and I'll break you / because I lose myself inside you, I'll make you

fit in the space that I provide you, I'll take you,

oh yes, I'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.

Now, / now we come, now we come to the end of it all,

see it squirming, almost dead.

No, / you can't leave, you can't leave it to die here in pain.

You've got to stamp upon it's head.

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

I'll go out and you'll stay home

([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)

facing up to living, / living on your own, / and I'll curse my pride,

curse my pride, / curse my stupid pride / because I want you

(it doesn't hurt to say I want you), I need you

(I never thought I'd say I need you), I'll keep you,

oh yes I'll keep you and I'll throw myself away, away, away, and I'll break you

because I lose myself inside you, I'll make you

fit in the space that I provide you, I'll take you,

oh yes, I'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.
