Lyrics for Song: Hanging Upside Down 
Lyrics for Album: Uh-Oh [1992]
  
               
  4892>Window shoppin'
  Finger poppin'
  Hangin' in our fav'rite shopping mall
  Looky looky
  A little cutie
  A little kitten she deserves a home
 
 
  Tell you dudes when I get old enough
  You bet that I am gonna try some stuff
 
 
  Twisted sister
  Don't 'cha miss her
  There's a hundred more where she came from
  Wiggle wiggle
  Jiggle jiggle
  Jesus, how the babes are almost grown!
 
 
  And I don't need to watch the news at night
  Anyone can see we're out of time --
 
 
  Hangin' on
  Hangin' out
  Got my hundred dollar shoes
  Hangin' round
  Hangin' free
  And we got nothin' else to do
  What goes up
  Must come down
  Oh, she took an overdose
  Hangin' out
  Hangin' free
  Till our mama takes us home
 
 
  Shimmy shimmy
  Gimmie gimmie
  We don't need you and we don't need love
  I gotta have it
  I'm gonna grab it
  It ain't stealing, hey, it's only fun
 
 
  When you live inside the pleasure dome
  You don't ever wanna go back home
 
 
  Hangin' on
  Hangin' out
  Some are hangin' upside down
  A perfect world
  A perfect girl
  Oh -- another year rolls by
  I'm the king
  And you're my queen
  When those zombies all awake
  A broken heart
  A broken home
  Ain't no tears upon your face
 
 
  Hangin' on
  Hangin' out
  There's place for me and you
  Hangin' round
  Hangin' free
  We got nothin' else to do
  Turn it up
  Fade it down
  Yeah, that song it saved my life
  Perfect teeth
  A perfect smile
  Oh, she was a friend of mine
  Let's go out
  To the place
  Where the hands of time are slowed
  No one walks
  No one dies
  No more hassles anymore
