stop look and listen
before you make a decision
(there’s) not much left but you want what’s right
when your heart steps over the line…….you gotta
stop look and listen
your love life needs a revision
but don’t complain if she wants the same thing
it happens every time
–
you sidle up to the mystery girl and you
listen to her, contemplating
its not as though you would ever know what she
thinks is so intoxicating
the woman’s mind is a thing so fine its a
treat you find so stimulating
take it slow ‘cause you never know if she
thinks you’re both communicating
breathe in deep
like counting sheep
(if she) lets you keep your place in line……. you better
–
stop look and listen
before you make a decision
(there’s) not much left but you want what’s right

where is the money honey?
what is the deal?
she said ‘you think i’m kidding, buddy,
can’t you tell i’m real? ’
from over by the pool table i
fell in love for sure
but now that i move closer i can’t tell if it’s her
–
the night is dark and the lights are dim and you
think you’re being captivating;
you tell your joke with its funny line and she
laughs as if you’re entertaining.
when down the hall a Neanderthal gives a
mating call thats excruciating.
she drops her gaze and begins to fade to his
tune that says ‘repopulating’
let her go
she’ll never know
what you would have shown her in time…you better

–
stop look and listen
you don’t need no permission
if you know whats best you can leave the rest
fight one battle at a time…… you must
stop look and listen
there’s only one condition:
if you tell the truth she will follow suit and
with luck your hearts’ll be fine…
