Don’t Suck Me In

She was dancing at the Lucky Spot Then she was at The Flame Then she went to the Red Rooster But the story was the same Had a boyfriend name of Buddy Then she had a guy called Slim Married a cat played bebop drums Whatever happened to him? Who knows what kind of a dive She's currently working in Don't know, don't care Don't suck me in Remember that jack of all trades And a master of none Played rock or pop, they'd tell him what He was just another gun Teenybop in Tokyo Bubblegum in France A mister glass half-empty A pessimist in advance Now it's looking like free fall The work's not coming in Don't even ask, my friend Don't suck me in Don't suck me in And your so-called business partner Was another fair weather friend All he really cared about Was what was due his end He liked to check his bank account Hang with the pimps and liars Come creeping by to sniff the wind Show up to kick the tyres Now he's in some kind of a dive Maybe it's a tailspin I don't want to know, my friend Don't suck me in Your second cousin's Uncle Frank Is coming into town With crap for all the family And to see what's going down He'll eat you out of house and home Disappear your wine Says he could have been a concert pianist If he'd only had the time You pulled the pin on that grenade Now you're stuck with him Don't even ask, my friend Don't suck me Don't suck me in
