When you're feeling down and you're all alone
There's a little lady you can telephone
When she knocks on your door makes your heart stand still
You give her the money, she gives you the thrill
She got what you want
She got what you need
It's the feelgood factor and it's guaranteed
Feelgood factor
She got the feelgood factor
Feelgood factor
Whatever you want, she don't care
She got the stock and she'll give you a share
It's a take-over bid your deposit is due
And if your credit is good she'll play (?) with you
She'll take you round the world and bring you back again
Deals in pounds or dollars or marks or yen
She goes in at the bottom and out at the top
And she keeps on going till your profits drop
She got what you want
She got what you need
It's the feelgood factor and it's guaranteed
Feelgood factor
She got the feelgood factor
Feelgood factor...

Listen to me baby - hear what I got to say
Listen to me baby - hear what I got to say
I'm going round the corner
To have a drink of Tanqueray
Come on baby - and do like I say
Come on baby - and do like I say
We're going round the corner
And have a drink of Tanqueray
Long time coming - but I knew I'd see a day
It was a long time coming - but I knew I'd see a day
When you and I could sit down
And have a drink of Tanqueray
Was a long time coming - but I knew I'd see a day
It was a long time coming - but I knew I'd see a day
When you and I could sit down
And have a drink of Tanqueray

I've been keepin' my ears to the ground
I've been hearin' rumours going round
Don't give me that dirty double talk
My advice to you is take a walk
Tell me can't you see
That you ain't foolin' me
So tell me no lies
Don't tell me no lies
I've been keepin' my eyes open wide
You've been lyin' truth won't be denied
I can't stand you cheatin' me this way
I don't believe one single word you say
Tell me can't you see
That you ain't foolin' me
So tell me no lies
Don't tell me no lies
I've been watchin' every way you go
I've got information don't you know
I have to say it ain't no big surprise
You've been messin' 'round but I got wise
Tell me can't you see
That you ain't foolin' me
So tell me no lies
Don't tell me no lies
Tell me can't you see
That you ain't foolin' me
So tell me no lies
Don't tell me no lies
So tell me no lies
Don't tell me no lies

I got a lady lives in a home
Made entirely of styrofoam
Styrofoam fireplace, styrofoam logs
Styrofoam cats and styrofoam dogs
Styrofoam people, styrofoam mags
Styrofoam pens and styrofoam bags
I got a lady in a styrofoam home
Every damned thing's made of styrofoam
I got a lady lives in a home
Made entirely of styrofoam
Styrofoam fireplace, styrofoam logs
Styrofoam cats and styrofoam dogs
Is here a genuine... ???

You said you was out but I knew you was lyin'
You double crossed me baby

When are you gonna understand
Someone double crossin' you
I knew you was in when you said you was out
When you gonna tell me what it's all about
You double crossed me baby
Cheatin' on me too
When are you gonna understand
Someone double crossin' you
Double crossed me baby
Cheatin' on me to
Double crossed me baby
Cheatin' on me to

I ran to your house just as fast as I can
I saw you in the arms of another man
You double crossed me baby
Cheatin' on me to
When are you gonna understand
Someone double crossin' you
I called you again it was past midnight
Somebody turned out your bedroom light
You double crossed me baby

Double crossed me baby

Double crossed me baby
Cheatin' on me to
Double crossed me baby

Got a Robert Johnson photograph that you didn't know exists
Even got his autograph, let you have it for a kiss
I'm a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin' in this world I wouldn't do for you
I met Memphis Minnie Lola(?) and she taught me all I know
Told me how to sing the blues when that lonesome whistle blows
I'm a liar baby but you know it's just for fun
Don't know Minnie Lola(?) so put away your gun
Well I've lied about my name and lied about my age
Told so many damned lies and you know I've got away
Well I've lied around the world and I lied about the news
So it's me you'll believe when I've lied about the blues
Me and John Lee Hooker played a Muddy Water song
Working on the chain gang in the Alabama sun
I'm a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin' in this world I wouldn't do for you
I'm a liar baby but you know it's just for fun
Don't know Minnie Lola(?) so put away your gun
Lying about the blues

Wolfman calling, and he's calling out my name
Wolfman calling, and he's calling out my name
Keep on hiding, but I know he'll get me just the same
Lighting striking, burn me once and burn me twice
Lighting striking, burn me once and burn me twice
Long time coming, I'm as calm as damn ice
Strom is breaking, waters mud is deep and fast
Strom is breaking, waters mud is deep and fast
Come to take you
You won't be the first
Won't be the last
Wolfman calling, and he's calling out my name
Wolfman calling, and he's calling out my name
Keep on hiding, I know he'll get you just the same

Well, they call her Lady Luck, but that beauty is a beast
She gave me only famine, I'm still waiting for the feast
I'm getting nowhere
And nowhere is a bad place to be
Try to help myself
I just don't have the knack
I'm taking one step forward
And two steps back
I can't pay the landlord, so I've got no place
I want to be a winner, but someone fixed the race
I've gone to nothing
And nothing is a bad way to be
I'm down instead of up
I'm red insteaf of black
I'm taking one step forward
And two steps back
I've got to check the dealer, that's all I can take
If I try to climb the ladder I'll get swallowed by a snake
I've got nothing
And nothing ain't enough for me
Got to take my lousy luck
And drown it in a sack
I'm taking one step forward
And two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back

I've been working every day tryin' to make a penny or two
I've been breaking my back workin' the whole week through
But I wouldn't mind if I had to work the weekend too
(I tell you why)
I'm just a fool for you honey
Nobody else but you
You make a fool of me honey
Nobody does it like you
You've got to look me in the eye
I'm just a fool for you
You make me weak in the knees
I shiver from my top to my toes
I've got an aching head
Tears runnin' down my nose
You've got a hold of me honey
Ain't that the way it goes
(I tell you why)
I'm just a fool for you honey
Nobody else but you
You make a fool of me honey
Nobody does it like you
You've got to look me in the eye
I'm just a fool for you
Well I know that you think it's a game
Don't you think it's a shame
I get a shiver through all my frame
Every time you call my name
Well I went to the doctor, he told me straight to my face
I went to the doctor, he said 'You ain't got no case'
He wouldn't give me no prescription
He said 'You've come to the wrong place'
(I tell you why)
I'm just a fool for you honey
Nobody else but you
You make a fool of me honey
Nobody does it like you
You've got to look me in the eye
I'm just a fool for you
I'm just a fool for you honey
Nobody else but you
You make a fool of me honey
Nobody does it like you
You've got to look me in the eye
I'm just a fool for you
