Lyric Hanging Around

{Words & Music: The Stranglers}
Big girl in the red dress
She s just trying to impress us
And she s got the barley fever
But she doesn t make a sound
She s just hanging around
She s just hanging around
Down the court road early
With the Hustlers big and burly
There s a million of em selling
And the buyers can be found
They re just hanging around
They re just hanging around
[CHORUS:]
Christ he told his mother
Christ he told her not to bother
Cos he s alright in the city
He s high above the ground
He s just hanging around (hanging around)
He s just hanging around (hanging around)
He s just hanging around (hanging around)
He s just hanging around (hanging around)
One of em comes over
Got a monkey on his shoulder
And the monkey s getting grinner
But his eyes are on the ground
They re just hanging around
They re just hanging around
I m moving to a coleheme
With the leather all around me
And the sweat is getting steamy
But their eyes are on the ground
They re just hanging around
They re just hanging around
[CHORUS 2x]
He s just hanging around (hanging around)
He s just hanging around
