I get a rise outta people who come

In walkin' sideways

i have to ask 'em nicely

What do I get from the hand

With an empty platter exactly

Proactive not reactive

Smiling teeth in a laughing mouth is

Sublety for two

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

'Cause now you think the world is mine

But is there anything for you

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

I realize your position is phony

While you try to guide me

There's something wrong with my way

Offer up the world to me

On an empty platter exactly

Proactive not reactive

All this muck and mire walking

All the black and blue

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

'Cause I've been taken for a ride and now it's

Comin' back to you

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

Proactive not reactive

Smiling teeth in a laughing mouth is

Sublety for two

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

All this muck and mire walking

All the black and blue

Say you want a little

Say you want a little

What do I get from the hand

With an empty platter exactly
