Walk Like A Panther

Marie has set up home

With a man who's half my age

A halfwit in a leotard

Stands on my stage

The standards have fallen

My value has dropped

But don't shed a tear

Some walk like they own the place

Whilst others creep in fear

Try if you can to walk like a man

But you don't come near

[Refrain:]

You've got to fly like an eagle

Prowl like a lion in Africa

Leap like a salmon home from the sea

To keep up with me

You've got to walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight

The old hometown just looks the same

Like a derelict man who has died out of shame

Like a jumble sale left out in the rain

It's not good, it's not right

The standards have fallen

My value has dropped

But don't shed a tear

Some walk like they own the place

Whilst others creep in fear

Try if you can to walk like a man

But you don't come near

[Refrain:]

You've got to fly like an eagle

Prowl like a lion in Africa

Leap like a salmon home from the sea

To keep up with me

You've got to walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight

Where did you leave all self-respect?

You look like a reptile, your house is a wreck

Your existence an insult

And stains that are suspect cover your clothes

The standards have fallen

My value has dropped

But don't shed a tear

Some walk like they own the place

Whilst others creep in fear

Try if you can to walk like a man

But you don't come near

[Refrain:]

You've got to fly like an eagle

Prowl like a lion in Africa

Leap like a salmon home from the sea

To keep up with me

You've got to walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight

Walk like a panther tonight
