Warm Leatherette Lyrics

Originally recorded by The Normal and then covered by Grace Jones, "Warm Leatherette" is an underground classic that includes one of my all-time fave punk lyrics: "Quick! Let's make love before you die."

Warm Leatherette

See the breaking glass
In the underpass
See the breaking glass
In the underpass

Warm leatherette

Hear the crushing steel
Feel the steering wheel
Hear the crushing steel
Feel the steering wheel

Warm leatherette

Warm leatherette

Warm leatherette
Melts on your burning flesh
You can see your reflection
In the luminescent dash

Warm leatherette

A tear of petrol
Is in your eye
The hand brake
Penetrates your thigh
Quick -- Let's make love
Before you die

On warm leatherette
Warm leatherette


Warm leatherette
Warm leatherette
Warm leatherette

Join the car crash set
