Twist My Arm (Live At Metropol Oct 2, 1998)

by The Tragically Hip

Lyrics
Twist my arm, ow
On a playground

She blows, Jacques Cousteau
Hear her sing, so sweet and low
Lull me overboard, out cold
Gathered in, swallowed whole

Yeah, do I want to? With all that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm
Yeah, do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm

You just hit me where I live
I guess it looks quite primitive
What was that supposed to prove?
Throw the calf or he'll throw you

Do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm
Yeah, do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm

Woo, woo, woo

Sucked in by the victim world
Thirsty as a cultured pearl
Culled and wooed, bitten, chewed
It won't hurt if you don't move

Do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm
Yeah, do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm

Yeah, musical chairs, double dares, memorized stairs
Shooting off flares, springtime hares, broken-down mares
Cowered phones, big soup stone, prideless loan
Grill-sick crow, motel moan, big fat Jones- Jones

It's powerful, I think it's a-
It's a cruel temptress
Feels a siren, someone got a cruel temptress
Cigarettes, here in Laramie country
I know you understand
It's a brand new brand
Smoking makes you look cool
A cruel temptress

Martyrs don't do much for me
Though I enjoy them vicariously
"After you", "No, after me"
"No, I insist", "Please, after me"

Do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm
Yeah, do I want to? All that charm?
Do I want to? Twist my arm
Oh, you do it
