Blues Band Don't Buy The Potion Lyrics

Standing on the corner, watching the world go by

Tall dark & handsome, you don't even have to try

A success with the ladies, big with the boys

His threads are expensive, he's in executive toys

Waitin' in the shadows, standing on up the street

are the family connections, the men you never meet

Short term investment, a long term smash

No credit, no cheques, it's all done in cash

Your toe in the water, won't make a splash

But there's no turning back, it's a one way dash

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

You'll be sorry you ever did

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

You'll be sorry you ever did

Stealin' & a-dealin', rockin' & reelin' all night Duckin' & divin', tryin' as hard as you might

You'll get there the first time, you don't take a lot

To go for the second'll take more than you've got

You'll never get back to where you wanna be

You ain't gonna make it and you just can't see

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

You'll be sorry you ever did

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Worse thing you ever did

Don't buy the potion

Arrest the motion

Don't buy the potion

Worst thing you ever did

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

Don't buy the potion

You'll be sorry you ever did
