Got to get a grip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
If you think Iīm vain better shut ya lip
I canīt explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones, it ainīt such a pity
Donīt cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if youīre living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip, rip
Once upon a crime I thought I was cool but I donīt want to brag
Once I crossed the line I think I musta zigged when I shoulda zagged
Got to get a grip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
If you think Iīm vain better shut ya lip
I canīt explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Same old same old every day if things donīt change youīre just gonna rot
īCause if you do what youīve always done youīll always get what you always got
Oh, could that be nothinī?
Got to get a grip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
If you think Iīm vain better shut ya lip
I canīt explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
Donīt cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if youīre living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt
What goes on when the lights go out
Or who pulls in when I pull out
And what is a one-eyed trouser trout?
I was so shortsighted
Now the wrong been righted
I feel so delighted
I get so excited
Got to get a grip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
If you think Iīm vain better shut ya lip
I canīt explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
Donīt cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if youīre living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
You wanna get high in a new york minute
Choke that smoke, honey crack the whip
Your head gets dead
As long as youīre in it
You wanna hang loose, gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ainīt such a pity
Donīt cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if youīre living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
