Lyrics: I Want You
Album: Freaks
Artist: Pulp
 

Hey, / you can look, you can look just like anyone else / if that’s what you want to do. /
I, / I could laugh, I could laugh in your face if I want / oh, but I’m not going to. /
([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba) / When we met last week on Saturday, / ([backing vocals:]
ba ba ba ba) / I couldn’t make a sentence, / I couldn’t even say / what I meant to say: /
that I want you / (it doesn’t hurt to say I want you), I need you / (I never thought I’d
say I need you), I’ll keep you, / oh yes I’ll keep you and I’ll throw myself away, away,
away, / and I’ll break you / because I lose myself inside you, I’ll make you / fit in the
space that I provide you, I’ll take you, / oh yes, I’ll take you just to push you far
away, away, away. / Yes, / yes, you’re all, yes you’re all that I ever desire, / still
I’ll kill you in the end. / When, / when it seems, when it seems that it’s getting too
soft, / when you lapse into a friend, / ([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba) / There’s someone
just behind the door / ([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba) / so don’t betray your feelings, /
no don’t talk anymore, / never dare to say / that I want you / (it doesn’t hurt to say I
want you), I need you / (I never thought I’d say I need you), I’ll keep you, / oh yes I’ll
keep you and I’ll throw myself away, away, away, / and I’ll break you / because I lose
myself inside you, I’ll make you / fit in the space that I provide you, I’ll take you, /
oh yes, I’ll take you just to push you far away, away, away. / Now, / now we come, now we
come to the end of it all, / see it squirming, almost dead. / No, / you can’t leave, you
can’t leave it to die here in pain. / You’ve got to stamp upon it’s head. / ([backing
vocals:] ba ba ba ba) / I’ll go out and you’ll stay home / ([backing vocals:] ba ba ba ba)
/ facing up to living, / living on your own, / and I’ll curse my pride, / curse my pride,
/ curse my stupid pride / because I want you / (it doesn’t hurt to say I want you), I need
you / (I never thought I’d say I need you), I’ll keep you, / oh yes I’ll keep you and I’ll
throw myself away, away, away, / and I’ll break you / because I lose myself inside you,
I’ll make you / fit in the space that I provide you, I’ll take you, / oh yes, I’ll take
you just to push you far away, away, away.
