David Bowie Watch That Man
Shakey threw a party that lasted all night Everybody drank a lot of something nice There was an old fashioned band of married men Looking up to me for encouragement - it was so-so The ladies looked bad but the music was sad No one took their eyes of Lorraine She shimmered and the strolled like a Chicago moll Her Leather looked better and better - it was so-so Yea! it was time to unfreeze When the Reverend Alabaster danced on his knees Slam! so it wasn't a game Cracking all the mirrors in shame Watch That Man! Oh Honey Watch That Man He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon Watch That Man! Oh Honey Watch That Man He walks like a jerk But he's only taking care of the room Must be in tune A benny Goodman fan painted holes in his hands So Shakey hung him up to dry The pundots were jokin' the manholes were smokin' And every bottle battled with the reason why The girl on the phone wouldn't leave me alone A throw back from someone's LP A lemon in the bad played the Tiger Rag And the bodies on the screen stopped bleeding Yeah! Watch That Man He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon Watch That Man! Oh Honey Watch That Man He walks like a jerk But he's only taking care of the room Must be in tune
