Am         F
Saucer of milk
          Dm
Table for two
You wanna pet my kitty?
E
You're such a dirty doggie
Am               F
It's your lucky night
                   Dm
'Cause I'm in the mood,
I'm feeling spicy
E
I'm feeling real naughty

Am                 F
Pick a part, you dream it up
   Dm            E
A dark vixen, a Lolita
    Am                F
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy
   Dm
Tonight's the night I'm dressin' up for you

I can tell you're obsessed
(Tell you're obsessed)
By your shortness of breath
Ooh, my Cookie Monster wants a taste test
Be a good boy and I'll show you the rest
Ooh, my little voyeur wants to play explorer

Pick a part, you dream it up
Librarian, dominatrix
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy
Tonight's the night (Tonight's the night)

Chorus:
   Am               F
Tonight, I'm gonna come alive
            Dm              E
Make you forget about your nine-to-five
         Am              F
Are you ready for your blood to rise?
   Dm                     E             Am
Tonight's the night I'm dressin' up for you

You're getting hot, so let's call the nurse
Ooh, I feel a fever, let's take your temperature
Better behave or a police officer
Will have to hold you down,
give you what you deserve

Pick a part, you dream it up
Use your imagination
Oh boy, I'll be your fantasy
Tonight's the night (Tonight's the night)

Chorus:
Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your nine-to-five
Are you ready for your blood to rise?
Tonight's the night, I'm dressin' up for you
Tonight, I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your nine-to-five
Are you ready for your blood to rise?
Tonight's the night, I'm dressin' up for you

F   G     Am
Tied, tight, tip, teasing
F   G     Am
Push, pull, pressure, pleasing
F                    G
Beads of sweat drip down your neck
 Am                              C
Breathing deep, gaining speed, 'bout to peak
          F         G
Trembling, trembling, trembling

Chorus:
Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your nine-to-five
Are you ready for your blood to rise?
Tonight's the night, I'm dressin' up for you
Tonight, I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your nine-to-five
Are you ready for your blood to rise?
Tonight's the night, I'm dressin' up for you

(Dressin' up)
I'm dressin' up for you (Oh, yeah)
I'm dressin' up, I'm dressin' up,
I'm dressin' up, I'm dressin' up
I'm dressin' up for you (Oh)
I'm dressin' up, I'm dressin' up for you
