Manners & Physique (Demo)
Adam And The Ants · Other Songs - Adam And The Ants
By laying out the rules
If you're so intellectual
Then you belong in school
Rebop the beebop, do it doggy-style
I like you even better when you're mad
Feels so good when you fight in bed
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
Do it doggy-style
Right across the floor
And when you feel exhausted
Then you know it's time for more
I wanna see you sweat
That would be unique
All that really matters is
Your manners and physique
I love it when you tease
Adore the times you pose
But I can't kiss a lipstick
Or date a pile of clothes
Rebop the beebop, do it doggy-style
I like you even better when you're mad
Feels so good when you fight in bed
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
Do it doggy-style
Right across the floor
And when you feel exhausted
Then you know it's time for more
I wanna see you sweat
That will be unique
All that really matters
Is your manners and physique
(Girl!)
You have a superb bod
I saw it so I know
So why the sweats and baggy clothes
Like you don't have to show
Rebop the beebop, do it doggy-style
I like you even better when you're mad
Feels so good when you fight in bed
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
Do it doggy-style
Right across the floor
And when you feel exhausted
Then you know it's time for more
I wanna see you sweat
Crawling on your back
And stop your misbehavin'
Like a scopophiliac
You tuned up everything
Tighter than a drum
So why not skip the salad
And come and have some fun
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
I wanna see you sweat
That will be unique
All that really matters
Is your manners and physique
And now you quit the drugs
And the messing 'round
Babe be very careful
That you don't get musclebound
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
I wanna see you sweat
That would be real chique
All that really matters
Is your manners and physique
Honey kiss on this
Honey suck on that
It's very rich in vitamins
It keeps your stomach flat
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
I wanna see you sweat
That will be unique
All that really matters
Is your manners and physique
(Girl!)
Pick your honey up
Never let her go
Say you want an answer
And the answer isn't no
Do it doggy-style
Right across the floor
And when you feel exhausted
Then you know it's time for more
I wanna see you sweat
That would be unique
All that really matters
Is your manners and physique
Pick your honey up!
