a song about anal sex. Tainted Love.

Give you all a girl can give. From the pain you drive into the heart of me. I give you all a boy can give you. I'm sorry but I don't pray that way

It looks like you are intermixing the Gloria Jones version and the Soft Cell version.

And just when you thought the Marilyn Manson cover was pretty different, I give you the ImpeDance - Tainted Love cover.

Actually, there are lots of covers. In total, there are 85 Covers of Tainted Love
