Transposer:

Pump It Up - Elvis Costello [Intro] (Bass) | | | x3 (begin guitar) x4 [Verse] I’ve been on tenterhooks ending in dirty looks List’ning to the Muzak thinking ’bout this ’n’ that She said "That’s that I don’t wanna chitter-chat" Turn it down a little bit or turn it down flat [Chorus] Pump it up! When you don’t really need it Pump it up! Until you can feel it [Instrumental] x4 [Verse] Down in the pleasure centre hell-bent or heaven-sent Listen to the propaganda listen to the latest slander There’s nothing underhand that she wouldn’t understand [Chorus] Pump it up! Until you can feel it Pump it up! When you don’t really need it then land on E7 Hang on with the drum beat 4 measures [Interlude] x4 [Verse] She’s been a bad girl she’s like a chemical Though you try to stop it she’s like a narcotic You wanna torture her you wanna talk to her All the things you bought for her putting up your temperature [Chorus] Pump it up! until you can feel it Pump it up! when you don’t really need it [Interlude] x4 [Verse] Out in the fashion show down in the bargain bin You put your passion out under the pressure pin Fall into submission hit-and-run transmission No use wishing now for any other sin [Chorus] Pump it up! Until you can feel it Pump it up! When you don’t really need it [Interlude] x4 [Chorus] Pump it up! Until you can feel it Pump it up! When you don’t really need it [Interlude] x4 [Chorus] Pump it up! Until you can feel it Pump it up! When you don’t really need it [Outro] Don’t really need it! Don’t really need it! Don’t really need it! (fade out)

Cette chanson évoque un sentiment de tension et de désir, le protagoniste se sent tiraillé entre des envies contradictoires. Il y a une lutte entre l'attrait de la passion et la réalité des attentes sociales. Les paroles parlent de la manière dont on peut être emporté par des émotions intenses, au point de chercher à intensifier ces sensations, même lorsque cela semble inutile. Le contexte semble issu d’une observation de la superficialité et des défis des relations, mêlé à une critique de la manière dont la société impose des normes. On y trouve une réflexion sur la dépendance, qu'elle soit affective ou liée aux impressions éphémères obtenues par la culture populaire. Ces thèmes se manifestent dans un rythme entraînant, ce qui contribue à créer une atmosphère à la fois dynamique et introspective.
