Tattooed love boys
I tore my knees up getting to you
cause I needed
To find out what the thing was for
Been reading
But man the time came to explore
I went apewire cause I thought
Like Id like it little tease
But I didnt mean it
But you mess with the goods doll, honey you gotta pay, yeah
A good time was guaranteed for one and all
The tattoos did target practice in the hall
While waiting for their number to get called out
I, I , I , I found out what the wait was about
I was a good time, yeah, I got pretty good
At changing tyres upstairs bro
I shot my mouth off and you showed me what that hole was for
Now I see you
All impressed and half undressed
You got paint stick all over the scars and lumps and bumps
Tattooed love boys
Have got you where I used to lay
Well ha ha too bad, but you know what they say
Stop snivellin, youre gonna make some plastic surgeon a rich man
Oh, but the prestige and the glory
Another human interest story
You are that." - The Pretenders, Tattooed love boys", Album "Precious", 1980.

I never knew anything like this existed from their 1981 period. I had and still have all their original albums. Saw them live in Portland, Oregon, 1984. Damn, just missed seeing the original group. Thanks a mil for posting this. I already feel younger again. Tony
