In the moonlight
Fighting with the night
It`s a rip-off
Kissing all the slain
I`m bleeding in the rain
It`s a rip-off
Such a rip-off
Rocking in the nude
I`m feeling such a dude
It`s a rip-off
Dancing in the dark
With the tramps in the park
It`s a rip-off
Such a rip-off
See your baby`s stud
Sliding in the mud
It`s a rip-off
Bleached on the beach
I want to tickle your peach
It`s a rip-off
Such a rip-off
See the girl dance
In her man-skin pants
It`s a rip-off
Terraplane Tommy
Wants to bang your gong
It`s a rip-off
Such a rip-off
Gypsy girl`s good
People treat her like a fool
It`s a rip-off
The President`s weird
He`s got a burgundy beard
It`s a rip-off
Such a rip-off
I`m the King of the highway
I`m the Queen of the hop
You should see me
At the Governors ball
Doing the rip-off bop
I`m a social person
I`m the creature in disguise
There`s a man with a whip
On his silver lip
Living inside my eyes
I`m the cat from the alley
I`m the fleetfoot vodoo man
There`s very little that`s ever said
All of which I understand
Caught like a skunk
In space and time
It`s a rip-off
