You think you're gonna please her so you walk right up and tease her

But she walks right on by

You're scared to walk beside her 'Cause you're playing with the spider who possess the sky

She got the green backs, my oh my

You gotta act tall, think big, if you wanna make a mark in her book

Gotta get ahead, get a car, fancy clothes or she'll throw you right off her hook

Here's the news you are but one fish in her back garden scene

Gonna make like a shark to be free

Something bad on your mind

Take my tip get on out

Take my tip get on out



You can't give all you got to take something back

Before she'll put you right up on her rack

With some others in mind

Take my tip get on out

Take my tip get on out



You think you're gonna please her so you walk right up and tease her

But she walks right on by

You're scared to walk beside her 'Cause you're playing with the tiger who possess the sky

She got the green backs, my oh my

You gotta act tall, think big, if you wanna make a mark in her book

Gotta get ahead, get a car, fancy clothes or she'll throw you right off her hook

Here's the news you are but one fish in her back garden scene

Gonna make like a shark to be free

Something bad on your mind

Get it off, take my tip

Get it off, take my tip



You can't give all you have to take something back

Before she'll put you right up on the rack

With some others in mind

Take my tip get on out

Take my tip get on out

Take my tip get on out

Take my tip get on out
