Thomas Dolby
Horsin’ Around
It's me again, your worthless friend
Or foe
I somehow let that lovely creature down
Horsin' around, horsin' around

Some things we check, and double-check
And lose
I guess I let that little vow get lost
Forgettin' the cost, forgettin' the cost

Quick to forgive and so slow to blame
The very thought fills me with shame
(But that didn't stop it happening)

The thrill of it
Can I call it that?
Was cheap
And feeling cheap's the only thing you keep

It's so unsightly to walk from her arms so lightly
Selling it all up the swanee

Horsin' around's a serious business
Last thing you'd want somebody to witness
I was the fool who always presumed that
I'd wear the shoes and you'd be the doormat
You wonder why my hands are still shaking
In need of a cry, the shoulders are taken
I deserve to be kicked
So badly
You deserve more than I sold
You for

Ju-lu-su-ba, ju-du-lu-ba ba
Ju-lu-su-ba, ju-du-lu-ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Horsin' around, horsin' around

The moral is
Whatever else you learn
You shouldn't let that lovely creature down

Lord, just blind me, don't let her innocent eyes remind me
Selling it all up the swanee

Horsin' around
Horsin' around
Horsin' around
Horsin' around
Horsin' around
Huh!
