Any Way You Slice It

(album: Asylum - 1985)

I caught the tail of a hurricane and I've never ever been the same
I went out on a limb, gotcha under my skin, well alright
You got dirt under your fingernails
What I'm thinking can land me in jail
Well, you're caught in this trap and you can never go back
Well, oh no no

I know you wanna cross the border and you know the doctor's orders
Well it's better late than never, can't stay innocent forever
It's alright, it's alright, yeah

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore

Ooh, ain't no wolf on the corner, can't keep it in any longer
Well if you're looking for bliss
What I got you can't miss, well alright

When it works like a charm it'll do you no harm
You'll be in heaven tonight
I know you'll feel alright

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
I know what's in your heart, I know what's in your mind

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore

I know you wanna cross the border and you know the doctor's orders
Well it's better late than never, can't stay innocent forever
No, no, no, no

Yeah, alright
Well, if I told you once, I told you twice
Just listen, babe, and take my advice
Why settle for seconds when you can have the best
So let me be your king bee, I want your hornets nest

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
I know what's in your heart, I know what's in your mind, yeah

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
I know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore
You know you ain't your mother's little daughter anymore
Any way, ooh hoo
