Tattoo
Tattoo, tattoo
I got Elvis on my elbow
When I flex, Elvis talks
I got hula girls on the back of my leg
And she hulas when I walk
Screaching cherry red
Screamin' electric green
Purple mountain's majesty
Really talk to me, talk to me, babe
Swap meet Sally
Tramp stamp tat
Mousewife to bombshell in the time it took to get that new tattoo
Tattoo, tattoo
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Show me your dragon magic
(Tattoo, tattoo)
So autobiographic
Best believe that needle won't hurt you
Best to see these true colors, than to follow one of your false virtues
Here's a secret to make you think
Why is the crazy stuff we never say, poetry in ink?
Speaking little red
Ex photo pink
Purple mountain's majesty
Show me you, I'll show you me
Swap meet Sally
Tramp stamp tat
Mousewife to bombshell in the time it took to get that new tattoo
Tattoo, tattoo
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Sexy dragon magic
(Tattoo, tattoo)
So very autobiographic
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Got a hold on me
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Put a spell on me
Uncle Danny, had a coal tattoo
He fought for the unions
Some of us still do
On my shoulder is the number
Of the chapter he was in
That number is forever
like the struggle here to win
(Everybody!)
Swap meet Sally
Tramp stamp tat
Mousewife to bombshell in the time it takes to get that new tattoo
Tattoo, tattoo
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Sexy dragon magic
(Tattoo, tattoo)
So very autobiographic
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Got a hold on me
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Put a spell on me
(Tattoo, tattoo)
I'm in love with you
(Tattoo, tattoo)
I'll show me, show me yours
(Tattoo, tattoo)
Let me take a look at you
(Tattoo, tattoo)
