Lyrics:
Pick it up
This'll get you out of your head
China's hanging out by the railings
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
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
China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nanana
China... na china...nana

This is such an underrated song, duran duran is always way ahead of time. They have never been critics darling as compared to u2 . U2 farts and its top of the charts and they put out their best stuff and it never makes it in the charts. There are so many hidden gems in the Duran Duran catalog that every song can be a single in its own right.

[@stefanob.757]

One of those DD songs that were very popular in South América but almost fully ignored in the rest of the world. I still love it!

Duran duran never repeat albums thats their moto.They are not afraid to change their sound and style to play safe. This is one of the reasons I love this band. The sing for me.

[@rajithmaligaspe]

Can't believe how fast the change from the 80s to the 90s happened. I mean this song was recorded in 1989, and the video was probably shot end 89, or early 90, and yet there is no trace of anything memorable about 80s fashion in it. Especially when comparing this to 1979/1980 when 80s fashion and pop culture hadn't been realised yet.

remember hearing this as a "world premiere" on KROQ Los Angeles in August 1990 and being very impressed because it was a very different for this band. also because it didn't sound like anything I was hearing on top 40 radio. unfortunately it didn't do very well either at top 40 or Modern Rock radio in the U.S. for me,it's one of their better songs.
