Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity

Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip

Ya gotta have stones if you're living

in the city

If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip rip

Once upon a crime I thougt I was cool

but I don't want to brag

Once I crossed the line I think I musta

zigged when I shoulda zagged

CHORUS

Same old same old every day if things

don't change you're just gonna rot

'Cause if you do what you've always done

you'll always get what you always got

CHORUS

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity

Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip

Ya gotta have stones if you're living

in the city

If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt

What goes on when the lights go out

Or who pulls in when I pull out

And what is a one-eyed trouser trout?

I was so shortsighted

Now the wrong been righted

I feel so delighted

I get so excited

CHORUS

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity

Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip

Ya gotta have stones if you're living

in the city

If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip rip

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity

Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip

Ya gotta have stones if you're living

in the city

If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

You wanna get high in a New York minute

Choke that smoke, honey crack the whip

Your head gets dead

As long as you're in it

You wanna hang loose, gotta get a grip

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity

Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip

Ya gotta have stones if you're living

in the city

If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
