Chorus: Got to get a grip Skin and bones it ain't such a pity If you think that I'm vain, better shut ya lip I can't explain how to be a fat city You gotta live large, better let it rip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Once upon a time 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
chorus
Same old same old every day 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
chorus
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt What goes on when the lights go out Or who pulls in when I pull out And what is a one-eyed trouser trout?
I was so shortsighted Now the wrong been righted I feel so delighted I get so excited
chorus
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
You wanna get high in a New York minute Choke that smoke, honey crack that whip Your head gets dead As long as you're in it You wanna hang loose, gotta get a grip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
