Herman Brood - Tattoo Song lyrics

<b>Tattoo Song</b> by <i>Herman Brood</i><br />Beauty today is only skin deep

Temptation is strong and the job ain't cheap

I've seen the spike up and down my arm

Sailors grave and tattooed snakes and broken hearts

Workin' like a charm

Skinboppin', skyboppin'

Baby, let the needle burn (Skin, scar)

Skydivin', mainlinin'

It's the point of no return

Get yourself a tattoo, don't think twice

You show it of in the disco, at school

Around the corner

Ain't no lie

Goin' down the road with a pistol in my hand

Johnny tattoo is lookin' for you

Skinboppin', skyboppin'

Baby, let the needle burn (Skin, scar)

Skydivin', mainlinin'

It's the point of no return (Made scar)

You never ever gonna regret

You've got a tattoo (What y're gonna tell her?)

You tell your baby: "I did it for you"

Got it under my skin

For the rest of my life

I don't mind, I show it of around the neighbourhood

Ain't no lie

I've seen the spike up and down my arm

Sailors graves and tattooed snakes and broken hearts

Workin' like a charm

Skinboppin', skyboppin'

Baby, let the needle burn (Skin, scar)

Skydivin', mainlinin'

It's the point of no return (Made scar)

Hey, honey don't tell your mama, keep her out of the blue

(What y're gonna tell her?)

You tell your ma: "I did it for you"

Skinboppin', skyboppin'

Baby, let the needle burn

Skydivin', mainlinin'

It's the point of no return

Your lover will discover some day you've got a tattoo

(What y're gonna tell her?)

You just tell her: "Honey, I did it for you"
