Adam And The Ants - Strip lyrics

It's at times like this, the great heaven knows that we wish we had not so many clothes So let's loosen up with a playful tease like all lovers did through the centuries We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? a-ha-ha When it gets so hot, the end of the day You may find your clothes getting in the way If a pretty dress hides your true desire Fold it nice and slow, throw it on the fire We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? (a-ha-ha) We don't need to see what the butler saw Or a mirrored room with a mirrored floor All those sneaky looks, gazing down on you Are no substitute for our rendezvous We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? a-ha-ha It's at times like this, the great heaven knows That we wish we had not so many clothes So let's loosen up with a playful tease Like all lovers did through the centuries If you think it's cheap or a bit risqué Please don't say a word I'll just slip away I am not a man who believes in lies Like an octopus with big x-ray eyes Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight Be generous, I want it all tonight (ooh ooh) We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight Be generous, I want it all tonight
