Watch That Man lyrics
by David Bowie



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 of LorraineShe shimmered and the strolled like a Chicago mollHer Leather looked better and better - it was so-soYea! 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 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 tuneA benny Goodman fan painted holes in his handsSo Shakey hung him up to dryThe pundots were jokin' the manholes were smokin'And every bottle battled with the reason whyThe girl on the phone wouldn't leave me aloneA throw back from someone's LPA lemon in the bad played the Tiger RagAnd the bodies on the screen stopped bleedingYeah! 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 tune
