Dedicated To The Press

Hey now extra extra have you read about me
They say I'm vulgar
And some people can do without me
Well all I can say is it's such a shame
Why do they blame me for what I am ?
Hey now

Extra extra do you understand me
Well if you don't don't reprimand me
Well I wish I could tell it to you another way
But I'm telling you the only way that I know how
Do you dig it

Extra extra have you read about me
Well they I stick out my tongue
quite lecherously
Well I really don't know what they're talkin about
I just can't seem to keep my tongue in my mouth
That's all folk

Extra extra do you understand me
Well if you don't how can you like me
Well all I can say is it's such a shame
It really is a pity that you can't get into me
I don't care

Hey now
Do you know where I'm going to ?
Hey now
Well you're hipper than me if you say that you do
It ain't nothin but some music
It ain't nothin but some fun
And if I make you up tight
That's cause you don't know where I'm coming from
And ain't nothin that heavy
Oh such a shame
Ooh that sleazy fame
Oh isn't she a shame
Maybe her mother her mother is to blame
Dear mother
Oh ah mmm what a trashy dame
Oh life is such a shame
You swing high
You swing low here I go again.
