Tattoo Song Lyrics

Beauty today is only skin deep
temptation is strong
& the job ain't cheap
I've seen the spike
up & down my arm
sailor's graves & tattooed snakes
& broken hearts
workin' like a charm
Chorus:
skinpoppin' skyboppin'
baby let the needle burn
skydivin' mainlinin'
it's the point of no return

get y'rself a tattoo
don't think twice
you show it off 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

Chorus:
skinpoppin' skyboppin'
baby let the needle burn
skydivin' mainlinin'
it's the point of no return You never ever gonna regret
you've got a tattoo
(what y're gonna tell her)
You tell y'r baby: I did it for you
Got it under my skin
for the rest of my life
I don't mind, I show it off
around the neighbourhood
ain't no lie
I've seen the spike
up & down my arm
sailor's graves & tattooed snakes
& broken hearts
workin' like a charm
Chorus:
skinpoppin' skyboppin'
baby let the needle burn
skydivin' mainlinin'
it's the point of no return
Hey honey don't tell y'r mama
keep her out of the blue
(what y're gonna tell her)
You tell y'r ma: I did it for you

Chorus:
skinpoppin' skyboppin'
baby let the needle burn
skydivin' mainlinin'
it's the point of no return
Y'r 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
