I'll tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
  When you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
  It's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
  And you want to tell somebody but you got to be discreet
  Then you catch your girlfriend with her skirt hiked up to here
  Honey, don't get mad, get even
  
  Don't get mad, get even
  Don't get mad, get even
  Don't get mad, get even
  
  Say the times they be a changin' though the blind lead the blind
  You know your head is empty though there's somethin' on your mind
  Been shackin' up with Lucy, and when the morning comes
  You're with Sally in the alley and the junkies and the bums
  You wonder why your girlfriend has her skirt hiked up to here
  Honey, don't get mad, get even
  
  Don't get mad, get even
  Don't get mad, get even
  Don't get mad, get even
  
  Roll the dice get lucky 'cause they roll you for the dime
  You got nothin' else to lose if you only lose your mind
  When pleasure that is shallow causes trouble to be deep
  You've been dusted with the devil while he sweeps you off your feet
  
  Tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
  When you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
  It's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
  And you hate to be a wise guy when your feet are in concrete
  Oh, sleepin' with the dogs, and you wake up with the fleas
  Honey, don't get mad, get even
