I think he was singing about a stripper
motorhead
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life
Sometimes I feel I've got to run away
I've got to get away
From the pain you drive into the heart of me.
The love we share seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light for I toss and turn - I can't sleep at night.
Once I ran to you
now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given -
I give you all a boy could give you.
Take my tears and that's not nearly all - oh
tainted love - tainted love.
Now I know I've got to run away
I've got to get away.
You don't really want it any more from me -
To make things right you need someone to hold you tight
And you'll think love is to pray but I'm sorry I don't pray that that way
Once I ran to you,
now I'll run from you,
This tainted love you've given -
I give you all a boy could give you.
Take my tears and that's not nearly all - oh
tainted love - tainted love.
Don't touch me please - I cannot stand the way you tease.
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm gonna pack my things and go. Tainted love - tainted love

@Moto-This is on my 80's New Wave Playlist.
One of my best college memories was tripping balls on acid while "Non Stop Erotic Caberet" played. If you think "Tainted Love" is coo-el (and it is waycoo-el!!!) you should hear "Sex Dwarf". On ACID.
Look up "coo-el" in the dictionary...you'll find a drawing of an acid head listening to "Sex Dwarf".
@Motor-You're on to something with this song. Great post.
