Hooks in You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got the keys to view at number 22
Behind my green door, there's nothing to see
Is that a feature? What kind of creature
Would hang around waiting for a guy like me?
Stone-cold sober and sitting in silence
Laid-back and looking for sympathy
I like a girl who knows where she's bound
I don't like girls who've been hanging around

[Chorus]
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in

[Verse 2]
She's tied up, she can't come to the phone
You must have got your wires crossed, she ain't home
Knock on wood, you know I like that sound
She never could keep her feet on the ground

[Chorus]
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in

[Break]
Hooks in you
I've got those hooks in you
Hooks in you, in you
Hooks in you
I've got those hooks in you
Hooks in you, in you

[Solo: Janick Gers]
[Solo: Janick Gers & Dave Murray]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
Right on the money, got it wrapped up tight
Got new ideas for the decor tonight
Make this house a preservation zone
Gonna set her in concrete, set her up on her own

[Chorus]
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in
Hooks in you, hooks in me
Hooks in the ceiling for that well-hung feeling
No big deal, no big sin
Strung up on love, I got the hooks screwed in

[Break]
Hooks in you
I've got those hooks in you
Hooks in you
Hooks in you
I've got those hooks in you
Hooks in you
I’ve got those…
Hooks in you

Bruce Dickinson:

“Hooks in You” is a slightly tongue-in-cheek thing. Me and Paddy (Dickinson’s wife) went to look at a house to buy, and it was lived in by three gay guys. We looked around and it had all these beams, and one of the guys was obviously into S&M and leather and stuff, and in one r...
