Testo
When I first saw you
Something stirred within me
You were standing sultry in the rain
If I could've held you
I would've held you
Rip it up and start again
Rip it up and start again
Rip it up and start again
I hope to God, you're not as dumb as you make out
I hope to God, I hope to God
And I hope to God, I'm not as numb as you make out
I hope to God, I hope to God
And when I next saw you
My heart reached out for you
My arms stuck like glue to my sides
If I could've held you, I would've held you
But I'd choke rather than swallow my pride
Rip it up and start again
Rip it up and start again
I hope to God, you're not as dumb as you make out
I hope to God, I hope to God
And I hope to God, I'm not as numb as you make out
I hope to God, I hope to God
And there were times I'd take my pen
And feel obliged to start again
I do profess that there are things in life
That one can't quite express
You know me, I'm acting dumb-dumb
You know this scene is very humdrum
And my favorite song's entitled "Boredom"
Rip it up and start again
I said rip it up and start again
I said rip it up and rip it up and rip it up and rip it up
Rip it up and start again (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up and start again (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Rip it up (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Rip it up (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Rip it up (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Rip it up (oh-oh-oh-oh)
