Rip It Up

Edwyn Collins

[Verse 1]
When I first saw you
Something stirred within me
You were standing sultry in the rain
If I could've held you
I would've held you
Rip it up and start again

[Chorus]
Rip it up
Rip it up and start again
And I hope to God you're not as dumb as you make out
I hope to God
I hope to God
And I hope to God I'm not as numb as you make out
I hope to God
I hope to God

[Verse 2]
When I next saw you
My heart reached out for you
But my arms stuck like glue to my sides
If I could've held you
I would've held you
I'd choke rather than swallow my pride

[Chorus]
Rip it up and start again
I said, rip it up and start again
And I hope to God you're not as dumb as you make out
I hope to God
I hope to God
And I hope to God I'm not as numb as you make out
I hope to God
I hope to God

[Bridge]
There were times I'd take my pen
Feel obliged to start again
I do confess that there are things in life that one can't quite express
You know me, I'm acting dumb-dumb
And you know this scene, it's very humdrum
And my favorite song's entitled "Boredom"

[Outro]
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
Rip it up
