Shim Sham

Funny how the body is a drum
You bang it up it's still in rhythm
I can take a beating 'cause the bleeding is a feeding
So put me in the corner with the mourners and the fools
Should have seen it falling from the sky
Should have heard it walking down the aisle
I'd have listened to the lessons but the kissin' was a weapon
I understand completely now
Love is Deaf!

Shim Sham Honey
Shim Sham Honey
Shim Sham Honey, Honey, Whoo!
What goes around comes around

Landed in the city from the hills
Tryin' to find a ticket for a thrill ride
I know you saw me comin'
I was dumb and young and hummin'
A tune about how someday I'd find true love
You were to perfect
Just like a spider
The more that I confided the more your net widened
Who'd a known I'd fallen for a backslider

Shim Sham Honey
Shim Sham Honey
Shim Sham Honey, Honey, Whoo!
What goes around comes around
What goes around comes around

What goes around stops and eventually flops
Now were at the cleaners with the lawyers and the bleeders
Falling down twenty-two stories and landing in oil
That's the drop!

Shim Sham Honey, Whoa oh (shim sham honey!)
Shim Sham Honey, Whoa oh (shim sham honey!)
Shim Sham Honey, Whoa oh (shim sham honey!)
Shim Sham Honey, Whoa oh
