Met her down at that Tokyo place
Loved her pretty face
I said: “Hey, you’re alright, so alright!”
I was sitting in her car
She told me: “You’re a star and I know you.”

She said: “Take me home.”
I need love so strong
Come on and knock me out, oh!
I’ve been too long alone
I want hot love, you know, and I need it now!”

She said: “Hey, let’s go, don’t put on a show
You’re just another piece, another piece of meat”
She said: “Hey, let’s go, don’t put on a show
You’re just another piece —
Another piece of meat.”

Next day she took me out
To a rough kick boxing show
Violence really turned her on, oh no
She was screaming for more blood
Loved it more than any drug I couldn’t stand it

I said: “Hey, let’s go, don’t put on a show
You’re just another piece, another piece of meat”
Said: “Hey, let’s go, don’t put on a show
You’re just another piece —
Another piece of meat.”
