Sparring Partner - Clara Sanabras & The Real Lowdown

Well there comes Lola, out of control-a: She just loves those rhythm and blues. And miss Ivy will be arriving; In leopard skin tights she's willing to cruise. It's a fiend scene and it happens 'bout once a week. SO FOR SOME BREAD COME DO YOUR HEAD AND GET LOW DOWN IN THE STREET. There's Jimmy and Jojo, there's Kim and Keith, Way outside the eyes of cool. And sweet M.B., and there's little G.B. Everybody wants to be their fool. It's a fiend scene and it happens here ev'ry week. So roam on in, it ain't no sin to get low down in the street. Some nights are lonely, some nights are lazy, But ain't nobody try and slip away. They'll make you loose. They'll make you crazy. Know what I mean, what you say, what you say. It's a fiend scene and it happens 'bout once a week. So roam on in, it ain't no sin to get low down in the street.

It was a moonlight mishap You lost your party hat Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile, after all A heavy-hearted taxi ride Then a walk on the wild side Did your guardian angel let you down? Gonna lay low and play it straight It's time to rejuvenate Gonna kick start your heart until you come around I can tell you now You've really gotten the blues I can tell you now That I've walked in your shoes Gimme the sweet and lowdown You better get outta the way It's history made the hard way From a hero to a zero once again Ain't no time for vanity Or this insanity You're maladjusted And now you're busted once again I can tell you now It comes as no surprise I can tell you now By that look in your eyes Gimme the sweet and lowdown You're looking kinda punch drunk 'Cause that's the way you strut your stuff With a swing and a swagger, down the road you go You shoulda made a better choice And listened to your inner voice You gotta get right or get left, don't y'know I can tell you now It's the peak of bad news I can tell you now That I've walked in your shoes Gimme the sweet and lowdown The sweet and lowdown Gimme the sweet The sweet and lowdown

Oh, my Life has passed me by The country I was brought up in Fell apart and died Oh, no Ooh, love no longer there Cold wind blew away the sun That used to warm the air Lowdown Ooh, I'm feeling pretty bad Feeling like I lost the best friend That I ever had Lowdown I got to find a way Got to make the people see The way I feel today Hey, yeah, hey, yeah Yeah, yeah, hey Hey, yeah Oh, yeah Yeah yeah, oh, no Love no longer there Cold wind blew away the sun That used to warm the air Lowdown Ooh, I'm feeling pretty bad Feeling like I lost the best friend That I ever had Lowdown Oh, I got to find a way Got to make the people see The way I feel today Hey, yeah, hey, yeah Yeah, yeah, hey Hey, yeah
