Sticky Wicket

Al Jarreau / Greg Phillinganes / Jay Graydon

Careful baby - careful darling

You got yourself
Into a such mess that you can't get out
You made your own bed
So what the heck can you complain about?
You're seventeen but
You talk and you wiggle
And walk like you're twenty-four
Grown man weeping
A ten point temperature rise
Everywhere you go
And the fact is

You're so fine that you fool the people
You're so fine that you're fooling me
You're so fine that you fool the people
Ain't so fine
When you fool your own self baby
look out!

Such a mess
It's such a funny situation
Sassiness
Got you up a tree
Sticky Wicket
Must confess
It's an inside investigation
No distress
You can talk to me

Seven thirty morning
Mr. Price what a day for school
Bright and early
Perfect little disguise
For the folks you fool
Midnight passion
Ain't no surprise to me
What you're comin' to
There's red light flashin'
Look out! you're going too fast
What you gonna do?

CHORUS:

You can change it baby

London Bridge is fallin' frightful sound
You can hear me calling
Here's your crown
In the game you make a circle
Just to turn around

CHORUS:
