What Goes Around lyrics

(Chapman-Chinn)
[Spoken:]
"Hey, you all want to go down to Devil Gate Drive?
Well, come on"!
"Welcome to 'The Dive'!"
Well, at the age of five they can do their jive
Down in Devil Gate Drive
And at the age of six they're gonna get their kicks
Down in Devil Gate Drive
Well your mama don't know where your sister done go
She gone down to the Drive. She's the start of the show

(Chapman/Chinn)
[Spoken:]
"All my life I've wanted to be somebody, and here I am.
I know what I've got, and there ain't nobody gonna take it away from me.
So let me tell ya what I am!"
I'm a red-hot fox. I can take the knocks
I'm a hammer from hell. Honey, can't you tell?
I'm the wild one. Yes, I'm the wild one
I'm a touched-up freak on a winning streak

(Chapman/Chinn)
Go ahead and laugh at me, try to be the man you oughta be
Baby it's not hard to see what's going on
Well maybe we should celebrate, drink champagne, why should we wait
Why don't we ask some friends around, they can help us play this game we found
Let's bring everybody down
Will we ever be ready for what we're heading for
Here we stand like a couple of fools and the race is on

Mmm yeah I was walking down the street
Shook the dust from my shoes
Thinking of a place to be
Hey babe we got nothing to lose
They say the best things in life are free
Well don't you know that what goes around, comes around
And what goes around, comes around
It goes around and round and round and round and round
Mmm everyone can be cruel some times
It's a lonely life
Such a lonely life

(Chapman/Chinn)
Well you call your mamma tiger
And we all know you are lying
And your boyfriend's name is eagle
And he lives up in the sky (high high)
Watch out the tiger don't go claw the eagle's eye
But let the eagle take the tiger by surprise
Scratch out her eyes
So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can

(Chapman/Chinn)
She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Cos she's in love with you
So if you see her all alone one night walk up to her discreetly, ask her why
And if she replies with words that don't make sense it may be just because she's shy
Don't take advantage of her lack of understanding just because you think you could

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in
Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in
Wherever you go, whatever you do
You know these reckless thoughts of mine are following you
I'm falling for you, whatever you do
'Cos baby you've shown me so many things that I never knew

Wow! Hey!
You heard about Suzi from Baton Rouge?
You have? Well
let me tell you about her!
Yeh ! Well little Suzi was raised at the Baton Rouge
Suzi was fooled
she was born to lose
She could be seen keeping company wherever she went
With those long haired blue eyed southern gents.
She said I may be too young to fall in love
But I'm still hangin' round
She said I may be too young to fall in love

(Chapman/Chinn)
Well you got the hands of a man and the face of a little boy blue-ue
And when you stand you're so grand there's a case just for looking at you-oo oo-oo
You're so young, you could have been the devil's son
You're so young, but like a hang up I'll be sad when you're old and you're gone
Watch Out!
You know the 48 Crash come like a lightning flash (48 Crash, 48 Crash)

[Originally by Bruce Springsteen]
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on HighWay 9
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected
And steppin' out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we're young

(Chapman/Chinn)
Well I've been thinking about you all day
Though my thoughts run wild, they won't run away
And I just can't stand it, if I don't think you're thinking of me
Oooh last night you said love (Love)
Love is what you said
When you shoulda said take (Take)
Take is what you did
Did I make a mistake
Am I being misled
Oh and I don't want to think about you much too long

(Chapman/Chinn)
Way down in Texas, down around San Antone
Stay's a little lovely
Sweeter than you've ever known
Don't let me hear that sweet kid's name
Get your hands on me and I'll drive you insane
So tear me apart if you want to win my heart
Tear me apart if you want to win my heart
Well I've been seen in the back of a limousine
I may not own it, but it's bigger than you've ever seen

(Chapman/Chinn)
I wear my jeans too short, and my neckline's too low
I'm getting stared at wherever I go
I wear my jeans too tight, and I stay out all night
And when you turn me on you'll see how I can bite
And now my preoccupation is making love
Hon hon hon
I got a bad reputation through playing around
I like your stimulation, but that aint enough
So don't take me home babyNa Na Na Na Na

(Chapman/Chinn)
She spent the whole of last summer looking out for a six foot two
She gave them all a good chance, she was cool so she told em what to do
What she needs is a real special guy
And if you knew her you would never wonder why
When you see her now you see her with a six foot two
Oooh Oooh
She never takes a chance
She doesn't need romance
She never takes a chance

(Quatro/Tuckey)
By the way he looks across his shoulder
And the way he sees things through his eyes
It's impossible to disguise
He's a mama's boy
So confusing to my sense of humour
Is the way he hurts so easily
Anyone can see he's a mama's boy
Firstly he holds me too softly
Then he touches me barely
Mama's boy
Then he loves me too quickly
Always everything but manly
Mama's boyMama's boy

(Chapman/Chinn)
Well I've seen you before on that discotheque floor
You were driving me out of my mind
But I could have swore that I saw something more in your eyes
Although you were surrounded by beauty unbounded
Your glance was intended for me
And though I tried to hide it I found myself looking to see you
So then you took your chances, you made your advances
Your touch took my breath away
