Come on down and see what you've been missing
It's a wonder that you haven't even given it a listen
Like a favorite pair of shoes, it fits just right
Easy on the eyes and it runs all night
One half truth, the other half bullshit
You can take it to the bank if you can get a hold of it
It's as slippery as an eel dropped in a grease pit
Sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's tender
Sometimes it feels like a three day bender
It's one half flash, the other half sizzle
One half shimmy, the other half wiggle
It's the last thing you see before you black out
It's the knockout punch in a heavyweight bout
You'd better get it straight or it'll bust your knuckles
It'll twist you up inside and cause your knees to buckle
Your hands are gonna shake, your mouth is gonna water
You'll walk right up like a lamb to the slaughter
You're one half saint, the other half sinner
One half loser, the other half winner
