Lyrics
Many people tell you that they're your friend
You believe them, you need them for what's 'round the river bend
Make sure that you're receiving the signals they send
'Cause brother, you've only got two hands to lend
Maybe there's someone who makes you weep
And some nights loom up ahead when you're asleep
Some days there's things on your mind you should keep
Sometimes, it's tougher to look than to leap
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) better watch out for the skin deep
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) better watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
Better watch out for the skin deep
One day the track that you're climbing gets steep
Your emotions are frayed and your nerves are starting to creep
Just remember the days as long as the time that you keep
Brother, you better watch out for the skin deep
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) better watch out for the skin deep
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) better watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
Better watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
(Better watch out) watch out for the skin deep
Better watch out for the skin deep
