Wolf at the Door

do you mind if I change in here she said
|
I said no go right ahead
|
you're the star
|
you can hang your sweaty little
|
black leather dress
|
right here on my guitar
|
I said my what big eyes you have
|
what big teeth
|
what tattoos
|
what big scars
|
she took a bite out of me
|
I said feet come on take me to my car
|
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empy belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
|
I was doing handstands on the bandstand
|
at the shimmy shimmy coco bop bar
|
everybody had a phone in their pocket
|
everybody had a greasy charm
|
mr. big and the pistols
|
kissy kissy baby
|
this was bizarre
|
they huffed and they puffed
|
they blew me away
|
like a ten cent cigar
|
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empy belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
|
wolves dressed up in sheepskin
|
dressed up in sequins and a hat
|
you can never be too paranoid
|
miss bette davis said that
|
look out little girls and boys
|
talk about your toys
|
talk about your cool cats
|
all the better to eat you with
|
all the better to beat it
|
I said that
|
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on a wolf
|
hangin' at your door
|
you don't say no
|
with an empty belly
|
and a barbed wire bonnet on it
|
