Shaking in the forest, what have you to fear?
Here there may be tigers, to punch you in the ear
With gloves of stainless steel, bats carved out of bricks
Knock you down and beat you up and give your ass a kick
When push comes to shove, youre afraid of love

Shaking in the desert, now wherefore do you cry?
Here there may be rattlesnakes, to punch you in the eye
With shotguns full of silver and bullets made of glass
String barbed wire at your feet, that will not let you pass
When push comes to shove, youre afraid of love

When push comes to shove, when push comes to shove,
Youre afraid of love, when push comes to shove

Shaking in the bedroom, covers on your head,
Are you still in fear of the hand beneath the bed?
Grabbing at the handle, scratching at the door,
Maybe its mystery killer you saw on channel four
When push comes to shove, youre afraid of love

Shaking in the garden, the fear within you grows,
Here there may be roses, to punch you in the nose
Put my arms around you, love you til you cry,
Wrap you in your sweet perfume and squeeze you til you die
When push comes to shove, youre afraid of love

When push comes to shove, when push comes to shove,
Youre afraid of love, when push comes to shove
