Let''s stay a while and watch him

He''s moving into action man

He''s looking good but maybe

He''s in the wrong direction man



But he wanna get a little, get a little

Every night, get a little, get a little

Something for his appetite

Everybody needs to have a recreation

Everybody needs a little comfort for the soul



You''ll never make it in a motown suit

No way to fake it man they''re not your roots

No, you''ll never make it in a motown suit



You can''t be a drummer without rhythm

Can''t blow your horn if you ain''t blue

Some folks they just ain''t got it in ''em

Tell me boy now does that sound like you



He''s cruising with the singles

Down the margarita bar

He''s boring to distraction

Pushing words and talking stars

(What''s your sign)



He''s gotta take a little, take a little

On the side, make a little, make a little

Something for his appetite

Everybody needs a little lubrication

Someone with imagination got to break the ice



You''ll never make it in a motown suit

No way to fake it man they''re not your roots

No, you''ll never make it in a motown suit



You can''t be a lover without rhythm

Don''t blow your horn if you ain''t true

No point in playing Valentino

He''s a sham and brother so are you

You can''t be a drummer without rhythm

Can''t blow your horn if you ain''t blue

Some folks they just ain''t got it in ''em

Tell me boy now does that sound like you
