Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me Lyrics

Def Leppard Lyrics

"Pour Some Sugar On Me"

Step inside, walk this way
You and me, babe
Hey, hey

Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon, get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
(Your man)

Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little Miss Innocent, sugar me
Yeah
Yeah, uh, c'mon

Take a bottle
Shake it up
Break the bubble
Break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah

Listen
Red light, yellow light, green light, go
Crazy little woman in a one-man show
Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up (Loosen up)
Loosen up

You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little, tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little Miss Innocent, sugar me
Yeah
Yeah, give a little more

Take a bottle
Shake it up
Break the bubble
Break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah

You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
Cause I'm hot (hot), so hot, sticky sweet
From my head, (head, head), my head to my feet

Do you take sugar?
One lump or two?

Take a bottle (Take a bottle)
Shake it up (Shake it up)
Break the bubble (Break it up)
Break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come get it
Pour your sugar on me
Oh
Pour some sugar on me
Yeah, sugar me

Joe Elliot was supposedly inspired to write this song by the first record he ever bought, "Sugar Sugar" by The Archies, which has the very similar lyric "pour a little sugar on it, baby".

The first time this song was released as a single in the USA (seven month after the album's release), it failed to achieve any success, so producer Mutt Lange remixed it for pop stations and it spread across the nation, reaching number two on the pop chart. Its success finally brought the album to the top of the albums chart in July of 1988.

This single reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1988.

Frontman Joe Elliot said in 2000, "When we did 'Pour Some Sugar on Me', it was only written because Run-DMC and Aerosmith had done 'Walk This Way'. All of the sudden, rock and rap did mix, so we wrote our own."

VH1 ranked this song number two on its list "100 Greatest Songs of the 80s" in 2006.

album: "Hysteria" (1987)
