Spaced Out

[Verse 1]
On the dock
We were sittin' there, gettin' half-crocked
When a silver tube came cruisin' across the lake
Knowles passed out
But ol’ Tomcat held his left palm out
And said, "Baby, whatcha say."
A four-foot man stood there gawkin'
An' I figured I had to decide what to do
Ya know it only took me 'bout one second to say:

[Chorus]
"Hey you
Do you understand me?
If you do well how’d you like to take me away?"

[Verse 2]
He went back in
Mumblin' somethin' 'bout Tomcat's skin
I heard him tell his friends, "Hey, one of 'em's black as night."
And thеn they dropped a ramp
And the littlе man, he slapped Tomcat's hand
And said, "C’mon insi-hide."
I screamed out loud, "Hey, take me with you!
Some of my best friends are four feet tall!"
But do you know they just laughed and flew into space

[Chorus]
Hey you
Do you understand me?
An' if you do then how wouldja like to take me away?

[Verse 3]
On the dock
I'm sittin' here, half-crocked
Kinda feel a little weird with this charcoal on my face
Hey well that's showbiz
But I feel just like a Ms. at the Rotary Club Bar
Why ya wonder who you are?
Hey, short man, have you got an answer?
Time's runnin' out down here and besides
I'm sick and tired
Of livin' alone

[Chorus]
Hey you
Do you understand me?
If you do then how wouldja like to take me away?

Hey you
Well do you understand me?
An’ if you do then how wouldja like to take me away?
