- Respectable LyricsWell now we're respected in society
We don't worry about the things that we used to be
We're talking heroin with the president
If there's a problem sir you better keep it better
Well now you're a pillar of society
You don't worry about the things that you used to be
You're ready to take your eye on a grain of power
You're an alias liar, the one's has lost
Get out of my life, don't come back
Get out of my life, don't come back
She's so respectable
She's so respectable
She's so delectable
She's so respectable
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
What I say
She's so respectable
She's so respectable
She's so delectable
She's so respectable
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
What I say
She's so respectable
She's so respectable
She's so delectable
She's so respectable
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
Get out of life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back
Get out of my life
Don't take my wife
Don't come back, come back, hey
