Thump Lyrics
In the darkest street
Far away from here
I can feel your skin
Stripped and bare
And my only threat
Is a burning cigarette
A smoking face upon me
Me
So come on, yeah come on
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump
Th-u-u-ump
Now my strength is weak
And the sinners like sleeping
And you’re all I want
Come here, come here
And if only the night
Was forever Id fight
For you, for you, for you
For You
So come on, yeah come on
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
So come on, yeah come on
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Twist round on it
Thump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump
Th-u-u-ump
Now I see
I’m starting to feel
You’re on your way
Running toe to heel
And inside my space
Is a hidden place
I don’t want to wait
Cause I’m always waiting
So come on, yeah come on
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
So come on, yeah come on
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So common, yeah common
Twist round on it
Thump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump
Th-u-u-ump
Far away from here
I can feel your skin
Stripped and bare
And my only threat
Is a burning cigarette
A smoking face upon me
Me
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump
And the sinners like sleeping
And you’re all I want
Come here, come here
And if only the night
Was forever Id fight
For you, for you, for you
For You
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Twist round on it
Thump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump
I’m starting to feel
You’re on your way
Running toe to heel
And inside my space
Is a hidden place
I don’t want to wait
Cause I’m always waiting
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So come on, yeah come on
Insist upon it
Jump up upon it yeah
It’s an illusion now go get your own
So common, yeah common
Twist round on it
Thump up upon it yeah
Th-u-u-ump

For Bertie Blackman, 'Thump' captures that "feeling of walking home late at night; your footsteps hit the pavement and your whole body pulsates. You become really aware of your breath and heartbeat."
Bertie says: "Sometimes you're walking home and you think someone might be following you and they're not; it's just the echo of your footsteps. That's what this single is all about."
To me though, the song sounds like a woman who is longing for some lovin'.
"And you're all I want, Come here, come here" ... "And inside my space, Is a hidden place I don't want to wait, Cause I'm always waiting"
The prominent use of elk antlers throughout the video clip seems a not-so-subtle hint of all things 'horny' too ;)
Great song in any case!
i love this song :)
The J's say that this song is about harboring fantasies. that sounds about correct to me :)
i always thought she was saying 'so come on, yeah come on' but this song is so catchy, liked at first listen.
