[Verse 1]

Step lively, my friend, take cover

Be sure, beware of this other lover

She's cool, she's you

She's oh so shrewd and she's on to you

So steady, Eddie, think clearly, be ready

Sometimes your heart can be unsteady

She's on time, she's on line

She's push and shove 'cause you're her goldmine

[Chorus]

Shut down, shut down

You should shut down on her, hey

Shut down, shut down

Close on up, don't walk her way

[Verse 2]

Colour conscious from top to toe

VIPs spend your money on the snow

Her slim waist, her good taste

She'll go in slow, but she'll up the pace

You're her ticket to the swinging jet set

You'll make her someone, you're her best bet

So look sharp, play the part

Think with your mind and not your heart

[Chorus]

Shut down, shut down

You should shut down on her, hey

Shut down, shut down

Close on up, don't walk her way

Walk her way

[Verse 3]

Love is easy, love is so unkind

Some are sleazy, love's so blind

Her blue eyes, her bust size

She's done her homework and I'm not surprised

So step lively, my friend, take cover

Beware, be sure of this other lover

She's on time, she's on line

She's push and shove 'cause you're her goldmine

[Chorus]

Shut down, shut down

You should shut down on her, hey

Shut down, shut down

Close on up, don't walk her way

One hour (One hour), one day (One day)

Somehow (Somehow), some way

Shut down, shut down

So close it up and save your alimony

[Outro]

Hey, your alimony

I said, your alimony

Hey, your alimony

Save it, your alimony

Mmm, your alimony

Hey, your alimony (Your alimony)

Your alimony, oh

Your alimony (Your alimony)

Your alimony (Alimony)

Alimony, alimony, alimony

Alimony, alimony, alimony
