Greatest Hits (1996) Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold Look over there (where?) There, there's a lady that I used to know She's married now or engaged or something so I'm told Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me There's something going wrong around here Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street I wash my hair and I kid myself, I look real smoothLook over there (where?) There Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend They say that looks don't count for much And so there goes your proof Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me There's something going wrong around here Around here But if looks could kill There's a man there who is marked down as dead 'Cause I've had my fill Listen you Take your hands from her head I get so mean around the scene Hey, hey, hey Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me There's something going wrong around here Around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around here Something going wrong around
