Marie has set up home With a man who's half my age A halfwit in a leotard stands on my stage The standards have fallen My value has dropped But don't shed a tear Some walk like they own the place Whilst others creep in fear Try if you can to walk like a man But you don't come near You've got to fly like an eagle Prowl like a lion in Africa Leap like a salmon home from the sea To keep up with me You've got to walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight The old hometown just looks the same Like a derilict man who had died out of shame Like a jumble sale left out in the rain It's not good, Its not right The standards have fallen My value has dropped But don't shed a tear Some walk like they own the place Whilst others creep in fear Try if you can to walk like a man But you don't come near You've got to fly like an eagle Prowl like a lion in Africa Leap like a salmon home from the sea To keep up with me You've got to walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Where did you leave all self respect You look like a reptile your house is a wreck You're existence an insult Stains that are suspect cover your clothes The standards have fallen My value has dropped But don't shed a tear Some walk like they own the place Whilst others creep in fear Try if you can to walk like a man But you don't come near You've got to fly like an eagle Prowl like a lion in Africa Leap like a salmon home from the sea To keep up with me You've got to walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight
