Young men, old men
Are pretty much the same
Like a moth to a flame
Their eyes have been trained
If you put your wares
On display
They won't look the other way

Situation
Could be misunderstood
Those professional girls
Really know how to hook
Did you want to look
Like them
Or was it all a mistake

Did you really think
That they would ignore you
When the way you dress
Says they should adore you
The attention that you get
Just might not be the kind you want
Attention
Attention

Invitation
Without using words
Didn't put it on a post card
And your voice was never heard
But the clothes you wear say
Come and take a look my way

Painted ladies
Ain't nothing wrong with that
Maybe cause a little stir
With your pretty little hat
But with a dress that's cut
Up to there
You'll get your share of stares

Did you really think
That they would ignore you
When the way you dress
Says they should adore you
The attention that you get
Just might not be the kind you want
Attention
Attention

Now don't get me wrong
Don't get me wrong
No one has the right to bother you
But if you flaunt what you got
And you got a lot
The attention you get might not be the right kind

Now don't play the fool
Did you really think
That they would ignore you
When the way you dress
Says they should adore you
The attention that you get
Just might not be the kind you want
Attention
Attention

Did you really think
That they would ignore you
When the way you dress
Says they should adore you
The attention that you get
Just might not be the kind you want
Attention
