Don't start it What you say to me and what you see It's not for sale I'm a cold starter Don't you hang your hat on my peg pin Your big red heart on my shirt tail? I'm coldhearted I mean and bad and virtuous And every bad thing I could ever be
Trying to be careful, Said I'd never do that again It's on the tip of my tongue And sometimes it just falls out wrong It's not the thing I meant to do, It's not the place I want to be
Guess I'll keep on walking, baby, Motown's gonna give me some clue, of what to do Should I travel on the sunny side When I think of where to hang my feet and what to do
You'd better watch out how you drive that thing But I looked into the fire and the spider's done It's dancing in the rain, tried a little shuffle But I never had the chance to move Try a different tune
