I think she's shooting it right at you

Look down I said right at you

Hey, let's duck down this side street

But I can just see you looking at me

Ever feel like a side-show attraction

Ever feel like a walking infraction

Some people call me Tarzan in my big, big sweats

Don't know just what they mean

Maybe not good, real bad I bet

I get by being a funny talker

All those funny jokes sting, so keep walking
