You can wear your new white shoes in the muddy afternoon Walking past these day drunks too, they whistle with their hands But I could be your catcall too, anything you wanna do Anything you wanna do You can take your slide trombone, play it in your catacombs Find a town that moves real slow and turn it on its head And I could be your Pharaoh's tomb, anything you wanna do Lover anything you wanna do If you want to be common I can claim that I tamed you A demigod in a bonnet, they're gonna know it ain't true You can paint your nails lime green, rent yourself a limousine Kidnap the professor's niece, just tell them that she's dead We'll party in a hotel room, anything you wanna do Sister anything you wanna do You can get your hair all wet sleeping on the riverbed Kiss a frog and then dissect, gotta find out what's inside And you can have my bad side too, anything you wanna do Sure anything you wanna do If you want to be common I can claim that I tamed you A demigod in a bonnet, they're gonna know it ain't true And yes, you are King David's star And the crescent moon, and the crescent moon You must sweep the Bodhi tree I sit beneath, I sit beneath You can wear your new white shoes in the dirty afternoon Walking through the traffic fumes, a flower in your hair And I will swing upon your moods, anytime you want me to Just tell me what you wanna do, anything you wanna do Lover anything you wanna do, lover anything you wanna do
