       C
Well yesterday, I went shopping,
buddy, down to the mall
Looking for something pretty
I could hang on my wall
I knocked over a lamp, before it hit the floor,
I caught it
A salesman turned around said,
"Boy, you break that thing, you bought it"

         F                       C
You can look but you better not touch boy
         F                       C
You can look but you better not touch
        F                         Am
Mess around and you'll end up in dutch boy
         C            F          C          F
You can look but you better not, oh no you better
     C          F          G
not, oh no you better not touch

Well I came home from work and
I switched on Channel 5
There was a pretty little girly looking straight
into my eyes
Well I watched as she wiggled back and forth
across the screen
She didn't get me excited, she just made me
feel mean

Chorus:
You can look but you better not touch, boy
You can look but you better not touch
Mess around and you'll end up in dutch, boy
You can look but you better not
Oh no you better not, no you better not touch

(Yeah!)
(Oh yeah!)
(Hey!)

Well I called up Dirty Annie on the telephone
I took her out to the drive-in just to get her
alone
I found a lover's rendezvous, the music low,
set to park
I heard a tapping on the window and a voice
 in the dark

Chorus:
You can look but you better not touch, boy
You can look but you better not touch
Mess around and you'll end up in dutch, boy
You can look but you better not
No you better not, no you better not touch
You can look but you better not touch, boy
You can look but you better not touch
Mess around and you'll end up in dutch, boy
You can look but you better not
Oh no you better not, oh no you better not
Oh no you better not, oh no you better not
I said you better not, oh no you better not
(I said you better not)
