Lyrics Get A Grip

Gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin’ in the city
If you wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

Once upon a crime I thought I was cool
But I don't want to brag
Once I crossed the line
I think I musta zigged when I shoulda zagged

Gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin’ in the city
If you wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

Same old same old everyday
If things don't change you're just gonna rot
Cause if you do what you've always done
You'll always get what you always got

Gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin’ in the city
If you wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt
What goes on when the lights are out
Or who pulls in when I pull out
And what is a one-eyed trouser trout?

I was so short-sighted
Now the wrong been righted
I feel so delighted
I get so excited

Gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin’ in the city
If you 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 you're in it
You wanna hang loose gotta get a grip

Gotta get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin’ in the city
If you wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
