Don't Knock It

Well hello here's looking at you

A lovely tan, make sure they see you

A vintage car made by no one knows

Dual fins, I said masters, didn't you know



Wind me up and pull my string

But remember one small thing

Why I can see that your pulled asides

And you act like your really hard

But, your a beverly hills star

Your a beverly hills star

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it



Things at breakfast so tried and true

Always a table never laughed at you

A million five would be really fab

And then it would be good about the tab

A movie deal and another script

How 'bout a cowboy shooting from the hip

Terrible man, terrible names big, big limousine is the thing



Wind me up and pull my string

But remember one small thing

Why I can see that your pulled asides

And you act like your really hard

But, your a beverly hills star

Your a beverly hills star

You just don't know a two step

Like a bull in a china shop

Your a beverly hills star

Your a beverly hills star

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it

Don't knock it



Wind me up and pull my string

But remember one small thing

Why I can see that your pulled asides

And you act like your really hard

But, your a beverly hills star

Your a beverly hills star

You just don't know a two step

Like a bull in a china shop

Your a beverly hills star

Your a beverly hills star

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it

Wowa, don't knock it till you got it
