Pink Grease are a six-piece rock group from Sheffield, UK, formed in 2001. The members consist of: Rory Lewarne (lead vocals), Steven Santa Cruz (guitar, vocals), Nick Collier (machine), John Joseph Lynch (guitar, saxophone), Marc Hoade (drums), and Daniel Pencavel (bass) (taking over from Stuart Faulkner who left in 2005).
They released their debut EP All Over You in May 2003, followed in June 2004 by a full length album This Is For Real which was released to some acclaim. The release of the next album Mechanical Heart, which was due to be their second one for Mute Records, has been postponed as they are no longer with the label. However, a limited number of promo copies are available direct from the band from the Pink Grease MySpace page. Alternatively they are available from the Sheffield Vision website in conjunction with the purchase of "The World Of Pink Grease" DVD, which includes documentaries, footage of the new album being made, and live performance/videos from the songs.

Pink Grease Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make me say your name
If I can't remember
Then give me all your pain
I can sit and listen
Or I can make you scream
Kiss it and make it better
Just put your trust in me
Oh my God, go a little slower
Oh my God, what was that again
La da da, let me feel you baby
Let me in, 'cause I understand
Let me feel you baby
'Cause I understand
[Rap]
I understand all
Now climb my sugar walls
Problem solved it's dissolved
with the solvent known as spit
Lickity lick not so quick it's a
Slick ride make my mink slide
'Cause were all pink inside
This can be really easy
It doesn't have to be hard
Here baby let me show you
I'll have ya, climbing up the walls
You got all the problems
I think that I can solve
Why don't you come in here baby
Why don't we sit and talk
[Chorus x2]
[Rap]
You like the top and the bottom
You make a drop and then caught 'em
And when you rock then you've got 'em
Oh my God 'em oh my God 'em
[Ad libs]
The lyrics of Pink Grease's song Peaches are definitely not subtle, but what they lack in subtlety they more than make up for in confidence and energy. The song is essentially about sexual prowess and the offer to take control and solve someone else's problems through sex. The opening lyrics, "Put me on the table, make me say your name. If I can't remember, then give me all your pain," suggest a willingness to submit to the other person's desires and be the receiver of pleasure. However, the lyrics also imply a level of control ("I can sit and listen, or I can make you scream"), indicating that the exchange is not one-sided.
The chorus "Oh my God, go a little slower, oh my God, what was that again?" seems to emphasize the idea that the other person is in control and that the experience is intense and overwhelming. The rap verse offers even more explicit lyrics, describing a sexual encounter in detail and boasting about the singer's skills ("Now climb my sugar walls, problem solved it's dissolved with the solvent known as spit"). The use of ad-libs and repetition ("Oh my God 'em oh my God 'em") throughout the song further convey a sense of urgency and excitement.
Overall, Peaches is a confidently delivered, sexually charged song that presents a clear offer of pleasure and control. While the lyrics may not be for everyone, there's no denying the energy and attitude behind the song.

You're incredibly skilled at what you do and it's driving me wild
