I saw you on the corner
You were crossing on a green
You were out there getting your coffee
You didn't know that I could see
You gave the cashier 45 cents,
You stole a nickel from the petty cash jar
You were gypping the people at the seven
Your mom gave you twenty bucks the day
before
Chorus:
I wanna drink you up and eat you up
And have you in for tea
I'm gonna see your life, Reisa Gerber,
I can see.
I saw you in the coffee shop,
With your mother having lunch,
You were having a "blow your stack"
People edit to Shut Up!
Had to blow my smoke down the chimney
Stack-
Because the people will live on-
I was feeling like the scarecrow,
I was raining at the crack of dawn-
Chorus
He said, "Hey, mama, we are the people-
And I hope your boss don't give you the axe-
Some old guy said,
"Well, what do you expect?
You play people like a ball and jax"
You can hold your lovin' head up
For just so long,
Then you'll topple like a ton of cement!
You can argue over it in a lover's tussle-
But "you bet" your life,
They'll pass it again!
Chorus
