Lyrics for Calling It Quits
He's a serious mister Shake his hand and he'll twist your arm With Monopoly money We'll be buying the funny farm So I'll do flips and get paid in chips From a diamond as big as the Ritz Then I'm calling it quits Calling it quits Eyes the color of candy Lies to cover the handicap Though your slippers are ruby You'll be led to the booby trap And there's no prize, just a smaller size So I'm wearing the shoe till it fits Then I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it quits Now he's numbering himself among the masterminds Calling it quits 'Cause he's hit upon the leverage of valentines Calling it quits Lifting dialogue from Judy Garland story lines Where get-tough girls turn into goldmines But, oh, those Polaroid babies Taking chances with rabies Happy to tear me to bits Well, I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it quits Yes, I'm calling it Now he's numbering himself among the masterminds Yes, I'm calling it 'Cause he's hit upon the leverage of valentines Yes, I'm calling it Now he's numbering himself among the masterminds 'Cause he's hit upon the leverage of valentines
