[Verse 1]
Mmm people get love all wrong
We know how to get along
We know love is a-running wild
So put on your rags and war paint, little child
We know love's a dangerous friend
Screaming tyres on a hairpin bend
Never knowing when the spark will end
[Chorus]
Ooh you gotta push and shove, push and shove
You gotta push and shove if you wanna be loved
You gotta push and shove, push and shove
Push and shove if you wanna be loved
[Verse 2]
Any fool can find romance
In a Meryl Streep weepie or a drunken dance
Or find your thrills in Mills and Boon
Or cry for some greasy lounge tune
Well that's tired lovе for tired old fools
Wet dreams for girls in school
You and mе, we know how to bend the rules
[Chorus]
You gotta push and shove, push and shove
You gotta push and shove if you wanna be loved
You gotta push and shove, push and shove
You gotta push and shove if you wanna be loved
[Verse 3]
Well who says a man must breathe?
And who says a heart must grieve?
And who says that life's for the living?
And who says the gift's in the giving?
Well who's got time for the human touch
The little things that mean so much
When the chips are down and the ride is rough enough?
[Chorus]
Ooh you gotta push and shove, push and shove
You gotta push and shove if you wanna be loved
You gotta push and shove, push and shove
You gotta push and shove if you wanna be loved (Ooh)
