I know how to dance, man, you step left and then step right.
I know how to make love, you just lay down in the night.
Daddy has a magic lamp, I rub it when I please;
You gotta pay, man, if you wanna sleep with me.
When I was a baby, I was sullen, big and fat.
I got yellow fever, then I grew all thin and flat.
With every bony finger, I could feel the breath of destiny.
You gotta pay, man, if you wanna sleep with me.
Could that be the hand of heaven knocking on my door?
Could that be my daddy’s body lying on my floor?
When the stars have fallen down to blue-eyed judgment day,
If we’re full of seed and money, what will Jesus say?
Heaven’s falling on us like a planet heavy shroud,
Ain’t no place on earth where you can lay your money now.
Need to find a lady, man, to guard your golden seed, but
You gotta pay, man, if you wanna sleep with me.
The time that we have left here you could measure with your hands,
If you cupped them sweetly down beneath the fallen sands.
Anything your eyes can see ain’t nothing that you need;
You gotta pay, man, if you wanna sleep with me.
Don’t be scared my daddy will be watching from the sky,
He won’t forget to shine on you when you say goodbye,
He won’t forget to wink at you when you take your leave;
Just don’t forget to pay man, if you wanna to sleep with me,
You gotta pay, man, if you wanna sleep with me.
