The Ballad of a Ladyman |
Eye cream and thigh cream |
How 'bout a get high cream? |
Nothing I do smoothes out the feelings of being used |
Ballad of a Ladyman |
Freak that I am, live in Japan |
Let’s rock with the tough girls in this part of the world |
Take a photograph |
Portrait of a Ladyman |
Are we holding on to our pride a bit too long? |
Are we breaking on guitars? |
Are we breaking you apart? |
They say I’ve gone too far with the image I’ve got |
And they know I’d make a mint with new plastic skin |
And a hit on the radio! |
Temptations of a Ladyman |
I could be demure like girls who are soft |
For boys who are fearful of getting an earful |
But I gotta rock! |
I’d rather be a Ladyman! |
Are we holding on to our pride a bit too long? |
Are we breaking on guitars? |
Are we breaking you apart? |
How many times will you decide? |
(You sit at home with an alibi) |
How many lives will you define? |
(In case they call and ask you why) |
How much control should we give up of our lives? |
(All you do is go, «ooh ahh ohh» |
You’re out of control but saying, «ooh ahh ooh») |
Are we holding on to our pride a bit too long? |
Are we breaking on guitars? |
Are we breaking you apart? |
How many times will you decide? |
(You sit at home with an alibi) |
How many lives will you define? |
(In case they call and ask you why) |
How much control should we give up of our lives? |
(All you do is go, «ooh ahh ohh» |
You’re out of control but saying, «ooh ahh ooh») |
