Lyrics Grace Jones

Grace Jones

Don't Mess with the Messer

So you think I’m a girl you’d like to meet

Because I look good enough to eat?

I don’t mean to stay inside that heart

There’s a world that we desire

Seeking out the star that’s higher

Johnny, now you’re the honey trapped in my tree

You should have known better

Should have known better, messing with love’s queen bee

Don’t mess with the messer

I ain’t sugar, I ain’t spice

I’m laying everything all nice

I can be as cold as ice

Well hello, you’re Johnny’s friend, aren’t you?

He sent me to see you

He was a good worker for this queen bee

Anyway, I have something I’ll give

If it’s a working man’s desire

Boy, are you gonna be tired

Johnny, now you’re all trapped in my honeycomb

You should have known better

Should have known better, leaving queen bee alone

Don’t mess with the messer

I ain’t sugar, I ain’t spice

I’m laying everything all nice

I can be as cold as ice

Better not mess, better not mess

Better not mess with the messer

Don’t mess, don’t mess

Don’t mess with the messer

Johnny, now you’re the honey trapped in my tree

You should have known better

Should have known better, messing with love’s queen bee

Don’t mess with the messer

I ain’t sugar, I ain’t spice

I’m laying everything all nice

I can be as cold as ice

Johnny, now you’re all trapped in my honeycomb

You should have known better

Should have known better, leaving queen bee alone

Don’t mess with the messer

I ain’t sugar, I ain’t spice

I’m laying everything all nice

I can be as cold as ice

Do you know what I mean?
