D       C G
Pick it up
                 D           C G
This'll get you out of your head

         D                  C
China's hanging out by the railings
        G       D C G
Of the motorshed
She goes with a real hit biker
He's a metalhead

She looks me up and down
Talking dirty eyes
Sweet saying boy baby
I could lick ya any time

Keep it up
That's right
here we go again

Bit later I'm going to run
Into her round the back
While other guys break heads
In the Sugar Shack

Don't give me drink I don't want to
Get too stoned
Then we're going to see who's going to
Take who home

Chorus:
     D           C    G
The violence of summer
A love's taking over
It starts with desire
Ends up under cover

Those lips will make me rise
You may look down but don't think twice
Slow death is on the way
So what man I still want to play

One, two

This'll get you out of your mind
This'll get you up...let's go
Maybe take a ride going south
Where her mother writes

Before bad news catches up
We still got a little time
We'll leave it all so far away
One thing is sure we shouldn't stay
I take it all little Chine going to
Get the runaround a run a runaround

Chorus

China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nana
