Watch That Man

Shakey threw a party that lasted all nightEverybody drank a lot of something niceThere was an old fashioned band of married menLooking up to me for encouragement - it was so-soThe ladies looked bad but the music was sadNo one took their eyes off LorraineShe shimmered and she strolled like a Chicago mollHer feathers looked better and better - it was so-soYeah! it was time to unfreezeWhen the Reverend Alabaster danced on his kneesSlam! so it wasn't a gameCracking all the mirrors in shameWatch that man! Oh honey, watch that manWell he talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoonWatch that man! Oh honey, watch that manWell he walks like a jerkBut he's only taking care of the roomMust be in tuneA Benny Goodman fan painted holes in his handsSo Shakey hung him up to dryThe pundits were joking the manholes were smokingAnd every bottle battled with the reason whyThe girl on the phone wouldn't leave me aloneA throw back from someone's LPA lemon in a bag played the Tiger RagAnd the bodies on the screen stopped bleedingYeah! I was shaking like a leafFor I couldn't understand the conversationYeah! I ran to the street, looking for informationWatch that man! Oh honey, watch that manHe talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoonWatch that man! Oh honey, watch that manHe walks like a jerkBut he's only taking care of the roomMust be in tuneWatch that manWatch that manWatch that manWatch that manoooh oohWatch that manoh (Watch that man)(Watch that man)(Watch that man)(Watch that man)(Watch that man) oh oh(Watch that man)
