"Love is like a bomb, baby, come on get it on"

(FROM "POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME")

That was me translating gobbly-gook off Mutt [producer, Lange]'s machine. We didn't have any lyrics, and we just sang Martian, as he called it, and swapped tapes and translated whatever noises we'd make. The first thing I heard sounded like "love is like a bomb." It turns out it wasn't, but that set the whole thing off. And then we said, "OK, that's a Marc Bolan song, that's a T. Rex lyric." And that's where we went with it. That was not relevant to sugar -- it was relevant to something else.
