Cameo - Alligator Woman Lyrics






Come On!

You can feel her coming, coming at you
she, she's staying on you, you know she's coming at you.
To resist her seems impossible,
you can't do it, no you cant do it, no you can't do it.
Hey lady what you say, how about some fun today?
Is it yes? Is it no?
Whatever it is just let me know, don't fake me out. Out!
Oh you make me shout!

Alligator woman, you don't care!
You ignore my desires, it ain't fair!
You just want to tease me, and turn me on.
I wish you would leave but I don't want to be alone, No!

Hey, babe I love you so, you know I don't want to go,
even though you're real laid back.
You're dressed in black! And your hair is laid back.
Hey lady what you say, how about some fun today?
Is it yes? Is it no?
Whatever it is just let me know, don't fake me out. Out!
Oh you make me shout!

Alligator woman, you don't care!
You ignore my desires, it ain't fair!
You just want to tease me, and turn me on.
I want you to go but I don't want to be alone, ho!

You're a mess, I must confess
You make me hot, with what you've got.
Your big behind, it makes me blind,
Don't take me gross, but you're the most.
You're a mess, I must confess
You make me hot, with what you've got.
Your big behind, it makes me blind,
I must be gross.

[Laughter]
Aw girl, aw girl
[Laughter]
Aw girl, aw girl

Alligator woman, you don't care!
You ignore my desires, it ain't fair!
You just want to tease me, and turn me on.
I don't want you to stay but I don't want to be alone, now!

You're a mess, I must confess
You make me hot, with what you've got.
Your big behind, it makes me blind,
Don't take me gross, but you're the most.
You're a mess, I must confess
You make me hot, with what you've got.
Your big behind, it makes me blind,
I must be gross.

    A guy I know in college made me crack up.This other guy I was talking to said he didn't know what an ENCYCLOPEDIA was (yes,you heard right).Before I could tell him,the first guy I mentioned summed it up well:"It's like Wikipedia except it's in book form and it's true!"LOL.

  65. o.... ....

    @Musicvegan01 Ooh, she looked good in The Last Dragon. Just like Ms. Parker in Friday. :)

    @oldschool1 The model is Vanity (from Vanity 6), known now as Denise Matthews (her real name). Today, she sometimes appears on church channels like TBN.

    @prettyone78 Anybody can put anything on Wiki. I don't know why people use that for information.

  73. p.... ....

    @prettyone78 wikipedia

  74. p.... ....

    @MrJuly1990ish I looked it up on wickapedia and it stated that Vanity is the model on both of the album covers

  75. M.... ....

    @prettyone78

    That's not Vanity on Cameo's 1984 She's Strange album cover, that's model/actress Laura Carrington who played as the blind girl in Lionel Ritchie's 1984 video "Hello." She also originated the role of
    Dr. Simone Harding on the soap opera General Hospital back in the late 80's.

  76. p.... ....

    she's also on She's Strange album cover

  77. 2.... ....

    That's Vanity on the album cover.

  78. Z.... ....

    This is the Bomb.
