Temperamental Lyrics


Mr. Big Temperamental

(Eric Martin, Paul Gilbert, Tony Fanucchi, Pat Torpey)
["We love to watch Pat do this intro. It kind of looks like he's juggling
  and uses the cowbell (our favorite drum)."]
She's sinkin' like a dashboard doll, cool, cruel and calculated
Beauty in the back seat, she runs hot, mean too cold
She's wicked with a mean streak, a timebomb tickin' away
Here comes trouble, right on the double, with a split personality
Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot, it's only me babe!
 Chorus:
Watch what you might say and how you say it, she's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on a good little girl like that
She's oh so twisted (she's so) temperamental
Just a little bit temperamental
One minute she's an innocent child, sweet taste of her emotion
Anxious with a strange twist, man it's all worthwhile
Mad look, comin' on strong, ready to meet it halfway home
Heartbreaker, time to meet the maker, 'cause the mice have all gone
Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot, it's only me babe!
(chorus)
Just a little bit whacked
(Solo)
Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot!
Don't shoot, it's only me baby!
(chorus)
You better - (chorus)
Just a little bit temperamental
Just a little bit whacked
[Half a wasted life willing to sleep a bite]
Girls like this you just gotta treat right
They just cut you back down to size - ain't that right, kid
Hey, hey, yeah yeah, she's so temperamental...  (to fade)
