She's gonna hand you a red headed Gabriel
Coming from the bar in a plastic tie
He's gonna swing from the Tree of Life
He's gonna try to sell you on a great big lie

But when you speak to her
Her eyes light up
The music spills right into your cup
The minstrels play and the waitress brings ice

There are pies on a carousel
Have a slice
But watch out
She ain't no good for you

He's gonna spin like the tractor pull
She'll sit back when he tells his tale
He's gonna yell when he drinks his beer
She'll sit back and drink ginger ale

But when you speak to her
Her eyes light up
The music spills right into your cup
It's so abrupt and it's so concise

There are pies on a carousel
Have a slice
But watch out
She ain't no good for you

I say watch out
She ain't no good for you
She'd like to put you in her zoo
Right between the canaries and the cockatoos

She'll pull out your feathers
For her brand new hat
And when she's done that
She'll feed you to her cat

So watch out
She ain't no good for you
Watch out
She ain't no good for you

Watch out
She ain't no good for you
