Take a tin a Vaseline out of a young girl pocket
Take ten pantyhose about eleventeen slip
Take a gal teeth from under her top lip
Take off a gal hair and leave on the clip
Take off a guy shoes and leave the polish
Strip a gal naked and she don't even feel it

Pay him bus fair the ductress no give him no ticket
Him just walk down the corridor every pocket where him pick
Him step off a the bus him feel stylish
And then him feel a cool breeze just lick him private
