I can barely watch the TV without a thought to how it should be
Let's consider why, these things still apply
And it's up to us who doubt it, to be the ones who care about it
You can switch off too, it's easier to do
So she calls herself a dancer and she's ready for an answer
Well yes she can of course, though it's a ragged waltz
And it's come to his attention, he's still waiting for the question
See he can shimmy too, if you want him to
Someone shout at 'baby', cause according to the word
Things are tough just lately, perhaps he hasn't heard
Couldn't get much safer, no shame, no guilt, no need
So you dance the night away for your favourite charitywas
Hand me down those sables, fix them battered shoes
With footsie under tables, they tend to get abused
She can switch off too, just as good as you
Just as good as you
In his world of milk and honey, he can hardly bank the money
Something in his ear, that he can't quite hear
Heat is on and just might melt her, even safe inside the shelter
Come to think of it, I'm the hypocrite
I can switch off too, just as good as you
I can switch off too, if I'm called on to
I can switch off too, like all the humans do
Cause it's easier
It's easier
It's easier
You can't help me when I shimmy
I just switch off when I shimmy
