Honey, Don't You Wanna Man Like Me? Lyrics & Tabs by Frank Zappa
Honey, Don't You Wanna Man Like Me?
guitar chords lyrics
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
He was the Playboy Type (he smoked a pipe)
His fav'rite phrase was "OUTA-SITE!"
He had an Irish Setter
(Hrtch-a-pltch
Hrtch-a-pltch
Hrtch-a-pltch
Arf!)
It was a singles bar, a Tuesday night
The moon was dim, the band was tight
They did the Bump together
What a splendid sight
The moon was dim, the band was tight
They did the Bump together
What a splendid sight
(Run nun nun naa)
Her teeth were white
(Run nun nun nun nun naa)
The drinks were cheap (it was Ladies Nite)
He was glad that he met her
She was an office girl (her name was Betty)
Her fav'rite group was...
Audience: HELEN REDDY!
Band: No! TWISTED SISTER!
FZ: OK, wait wait wait, let's do it right. OK, now that you know what you're supposed to say there, let's hear it.
She was an office girl (her name was Betty)
Her fav'rite group was... TWISTED SISTER
(They discussed the weather)
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Man!
She was a lonely sort, just a little too short
Her jokes were dumb and her fav'rite sport
Was hockey (in the winter)
(Mumble-mumble... He scores!)
He was duly impressed and was quick to suggest
Any sport with a PUCK had to be 'bout the best
As he jabbed his elbow in her (get it honey?
Get it honey? Sister Honey?)
Later on they went off to where the music was soft,
The candles were drippy, they saw a REAL HIPPY
Who delivered their dinner
The rice was brown, and soon they found
That the crowd around that had jammed the room,
Well it seemed to be getting thinner
(Break dancing!)
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Man!
He took her home to a motor court
She wouldn't kiss him, he tried to ignore it,
But it made him angry!
(Oh boy! What a cone!
And I don't believe that he can bust...)
(What?...)
He called her a pig
(Pig pig pig...)
A slut
(Slut slut slut...)
And a whore
(Whore whore whore...)
A bitch
(Bitch bitch bitch...)
And a Republican
(Republican!)
And she slammed
(She slammed)
The door
In a petulant frenzy!
(A petulant frenzy!
This is a petulant
Frenzy!
I'm petulant,
And I'm having a frenzy!)
On the sofa she weeps
BOO HOO HOO HOO
She weeps and she weeps
BOO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOO
She weeps and she peeps
Through the curtain
He just got in his car
But the battery's dead
So he asked to use the phone
And she gives him some head
And that's the end of the story
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a man like me
Honey honey, hey
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Baby don't you want a
Man!
Baby don't you want a man sometimes?
