Buck-Tick (stylized as BUCK-TICK) is a Japanese rock band, formed in Fujioka, Gunma in 1983. The group has consisted of Atsushi Sakurai (lead vocals), Hisashi Imai (guitar), Hidehiko Hoshino (guitar), Yutaka Higuchi (bass) and Toll Yagami (drums) since 1985.

In addition to having experimented with many different genres of music, including punk, dark wave, electronic, industrial, gothic and straight rock, they are commonly credited as one of the founders of the visual kei movement.
The five members have also worked on individual projects and collaborated with many other famous artists, both Japanese and foreign, including Maki Fujii (Soft Ballet), Issay (Der Zibet), Kiyoshi (Media Youth, Spread Beaver), Masami Tsuchiya (Ippu-Do), Raymond Watts (PIG), Sascha Konietzko (KMFDM), Clan of Xymox, Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins) and Kelli Ali (Sneaker Pimps).
Hit the block around twenty to nine,
Checking my girl
But then I see this girl lookin' fine, so I
Asked her if she wouldn't mind,
Could you tell me your name and what you're doing tonight ?
Body like nothin' I seen,
She's telling me she's on the cover of GQ magazine.
Tellin' me she had to go...
So I dropped her at the spot in my four by four
- Bridge
So I told her ...
I can't be late,
The girl's taking up my time,
Had to hit her with a line,
So I told her ...
I can't wait to freak,
See you at the same time next week.
She said ...
- Chorus
Baby give me what you got,
Cos I'm everything that's she's not.
Love is all I bring,
In my khaki suit and thing.
So honey leave your girl at home,
With your car keys, mobile phone.
Love is all I got,
All the things that make you hot
Got my woman crazy on the phone,
She's talking bout why the f*** my ass ain't at home.
Had to tell her I was stuck,
In some brand new business, I was all tied up.
Told the girl I was late,
I had to rhyme.
I got to be backstage at a quarter past nine.
Telling me to change my mind ...
She's like Britney Spears Baby hit me one more time ...
- Bridge
- Chorus
