Every man is trying to catch a sweety*
1st verse: She moves to get on the bus
ignores the crowd of boys
that are usually after her
with all that Macho-noise;
they shout: hey! Sweet baby what about
a date?
2nd verse: She looks good, she knows she does,
so what? She turns them on,
that's why all the trouble starts
'cause they want to have fun;
they say: hey! That girl's too hot! She gets
us high!
Refrain: Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
Every man's denyin' falling for sexy outfit!
Choir: All men get mad about it!
3rd verse: She can't find a place where she
can rest from daily chase.
Shabby clothes! Get fat! You see,
what men want's just disguise!
They claim: hey! That's age-old law!
Well! Machos! Right!
Refrain: Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
Every man's denyin' falling for sexy outfit!
Choir: All men get mad about it!
Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
4th verse: She goes on, she hasn't changed
she can't see why she should.
If the guys got fixed their minds
they'd make it! Sure they would!
Yet it's: man! So bloody hard! Girls are
too much!
Refrain: Every man is tryin' to catch a sweety!
Every man's denyin' falling for sexy outfit!
Choir: All men get mad about it!
All men get mad about it!
All men get mad about it!
