Marie has set up home
with a man who's half my age
A half-wit and a leotard
stands on my stage
Standards have fallen,
my value has dropped
But don't shed a tear
Some walk like they own the place
Whilst others creep in fear
So try if you can to walk like a man
But you don't come near
You've got to fly like an eagle
Growl like a lion in Africa Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
The old hometown just looks the same
Like a derelict man who has died out of shame
Like a jumbled sail left out in the rain
It's not good, it's not right
The standards have fallen,
my value has dropped
But don't shed a tear Some walk like they own the place
Whilst others creep in fear So try if you can to walk like a man
But you don't come near You've got to fly like an eagle
Growl
like a lion in Africa Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Now where did you leave your self-respect?
You look like a reptile,
your house is a wreck Your existence
an insult and stains that are suspect
Cover your clothes
The standards have fallen,
my value has dropped But don't shed a tear
Some walk like they own the place Whilst others creep in fear
So try if you can to walk like a man But you don't come near
You've got to fly like an eagle
Growl like a lion in Africa
Leap like a salmon home from the sea To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
You've got to fly like an eagle
Growl like a lion in Africa
Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Mmmmm, walk like a pampa tonight.
