Gimme the Sweet and Lowdown

[Verse 1]
Was a moonlight mishap, you lost your party hat
Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile after all
A heavy-hearted taxi ride and a walk on the wild side
Did your guardian angel let you down?
Gonna lay low and play it straight, it's time to rejuvenate
Gonna kick start your heart 'til you come around

[Chorus 1]
I can tell you now, you've really gotten the blues
I can tell you now that I've walked in your shoes
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

[Verse 2]
You better get out the way, it's history made the hard way
From a hero to a zero once again
Ain't no time for vanity or this insanity
You're maladjusted and now you're busted once again

[Chorus 2]
I can tell you now, it comes as no surprise
I can tell you now by that look in your eyes
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

[Verse 3]
You're looking kinda punch drunk, is that the way you strut your stuff?
With a swing and a swagger, down the road you go
You should've made a better choice, listened to your inner voice
You gotta get right or get left, don't you know?

[Chorus 3]
I can tell you now, it's the bleak or bad news
I can tell you now that I've walked in your shoes
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

[Outro]
The sweet and lowdown
Gimme the sweet, sweet and lowdown
