come home with me honey
cos i like you lots
my place gets a little cold
might want to double your socks
and i will warm you with my lovin'
as the temperature drops
we'll make it toasty as an oven
in my cardboard box
we'll cut out nice pictures of
fine food and drink
wash our little paper dishes
in the photo of a sink
i'll tape an ad to your shoulders
of catalogue mink
give ya newspaper roses
and champaign ink
my roommate willie is a good man
he just mostly gets stoned
but willie doesn't dig it
when i bring somebody home
i'll say "hey back off fat-man,
i don't like your tone!"
believe me, willie will turn over
and leave the two of us alone
come home with me honey...
can you possibly resist me?
don't i ring your bell?
you got that certain look that tells me
this is one hard sell
is it the outfit sweety?
is it the smell?
i'll slap on eau cologne
and get you under my spell!
and i will warm you with my lovin'...
when i made the big bucks
and had my moment in the sun,
i only stood two paychecks
between the condo and the slum
in time i grew disgusted
by all the homeless scum
but babe i've since adjusted
now that i'm one
i punched out a little window
it's got a very lovely view
we'll take in all the action
down on the avenue
and if the natives get restless
and the cops turn cruel
well, that's the price ya gotta pay for
urban renewal
come home with me sweety
cos i like you lots
my place gets a little cold
might wanna double your socks
and i will warm you with my lovin'
as the temperature drops
we'll make it toasty as an oven
in my cardboard box
in my cardboard box
in my cardboard box
