[Verse 1]
Don't say a word, don't say anything
Don't say a word, I'm not even listening
I read in the papers about their escape
They picked two bitter kids from a bunch of sour grapes
You better watch your step
Watch who's knocking on your front door
Now you know that they're watching
What are you waiting for?
Think you're young and original get out before
They get to watch your step
[Verse 2]
Every day is full of fun and family spies
They're making heroes out of fall guys
They say it's good for business
From Singapore to Widnes
You better watch your step
Broken noses hung up on the wall
Back-slapping drinkers cheer the heavyweight brawl
So punch drunk they don't understand at all
You better watch your step
[Verse 3]
Every night go out full of carnival desires
And end up in the closing time choirs
When you're kicking in the car chrome
And you're drinking down the Eau de Cologne
And you're spitting out the Kodachrome
You better watch your step
Bye, I send you all my regards
You're so tough, you're so hard
Listen to the hammers falling in the breaker's yard
You better watch your step
You better watch your step
Ooh, watch your step
