What you see is what you get 
Don't relax you're not home yet 
What you see is what you get 
Don't relax you're not home yet 

Put your life into my hands 
Look around you'll understand 
Put your life into my hands 

It's the '80's idiot 
What you see is what you get 
It's the '80's little fool 
Don't forget the golden rule 
What you see is what you get 
What the hell did you expect 
Pretty red roses, wet puppy noses 
Men with rubber hoses is more like it 

What you see is not always what you get 
A lesson we must not forget 
One never knows what to expect 
So close your eyes and what you get 
Is what you see and what you get 

Open up your eyes and look around 
Then close them tight and kiss the ground 
You better be thankful you're alive 
And how much longer can you survive 
Underneath the mask there's something brewing 
Underneath the ground there's something moving 

It's the '80's idiot 
What you see is what you get 
It's the '80's little fool 
Don't forget the golden rule 
What you see is what you get 
What the hell did you expect 
Pretty red roses, wet puppy noses 
Men with rubber hoses is more like it 

Patrolling the street with all of their friends 
Bashing you around trying to make you like them 
What you see is what you get
