Rip It Up - Orange Juice

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

But 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 was 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 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 and rip it up and start again

Rip it up

Rip it up

Rip it up

Rip it up and start again

Rip it up

Rip it up

Rip it up

Rip it up
