d**h cab for cutie Sung it like a beauty Stepped out forgetting Danger has a duty Lonely night He wants to squeeze her tight They murder for a dollar No one hears you holler Wrap up your baby Then you'll be a scholar Chorus: Love stops knocking, your heart starts rocking It's crime time Out on the main land Hit him with a right hand Stepped on his ego Now he fells like a man Do it right It's a lonely fight Playing fats waller Lipstick on your collar Back in 1950 People had their honour (chorus) They murder for a dollar No one hears you holler Wrap up your baby Then you'll be a scholar
