Neneh Cherry Buffalo Stance lyrics

Who's that gigolo on the street
With his hands in his pockets and his crocodile feet
Hanging off the curb, looking all disturbed?
At the boys from home, they all came running

They were making noise, manhandling toys
That's the girls on the block with the nasty curls
Wearing padded bras sucking beers through straws
Dropping down their drawers, where did you get yours?

Gigolo, huh, sukka?
Gigolo, gigolo, huh, sukka?

Who's looking good today?
Who's looking good in every way?
No style rookie
You better watch don't mess with me

No money man can win my love
It's sweetness that I'm thinking of
We always hang in a Buffalo Stance
We do the dive every time we dance

I'll give you love, baby, not romance
I'll make a move nothing left to chance
So don't you get fresh with me

Get funky, yeah, Timmy
Tell it like it is, check out this DJ

So you say, you wanted money
But you know it's never funny
When your shoes worn through
And there's a rumble in your tummy

But you had to have style, get a gold tooth smile
Put a girl on the corner so you can make a pile
Committed a crime and went inside
It was coming your way but you had to survive

When you lost your babe, you lost the race
Now you're looking at me to take her place

Who's looking good today?
Who's looking good in every way?
No style rookie
You better watch don't mess with me


Smokin' not cokin' get funky sax
Looking good, hanging with the wild bunch
Looking good in a Buffalo Stance
Looking good when it comes to the crunch

Looking good's a state of mind
State of mind don't look behind you
State of mind or you'll be dead
State of mind may I remind you

Bomb the Bass, rock this place
What is he like? What's he like anyway?
Yo' man what do you expect the guy's a gigolo man
You know I mean?

No money man can win my love
It's sweetness that I'm thinking of.
We always hang in a Buffalo Stance
We do the dive every time we dance

I'll give you love, baby, not romance
I'll make a move nothing left to chance
So don't you get fresh with me

No money man can win my love
It's sweetness that I'm thinking of.
We always hang in a Buffalo Stance
We do the dive every time we dance

I'll give you love, baby, not romance
I'll make a move nothing left to chance
So don't you get fresh with me

Wind on my face, sound in my ears
Water from my eyes and you on my mind
As I sink diving down deep, deeper into your soul

No money man can win my love
It's sweetness that I'm thinking of.
We always hang in a Buffalo Stance
We do the dive every time we dance

I'll give you love, baby, not romance
I'll make a move nothing left to chance
So don't you get fresh with me
