  • You know I'm bad, the times I've had
    I've got a bad reputation
    I don't care, I get my share
    Don't feel no deprivation, I don't

    The more I get the better it is
    I like it fine, like a little whiz
    Treat 'em like ladies, that's a fact
    You know the chase is better than the catch, you know

    Silver-tongued devil, demon lech
    I know just what I'm doing
    I like a little innocent bitch
    You know I ain't just screwing, I ain't

    I love you baby, love you too much
    I like it fine, I feel your touch
    But your appearance don't hold no class
    You know the chase is better than the catch, you know

    A little beauty, I love you madly
    Come on home with me
    I know you're hot, I know what you've got
    You know I want to shake your tree, you know

    Come on honey, touch me right there
    Come on honey, don't you get scared
    Come on honey, let me get you in the sack
    You know the chase is better than the catch, you know

    All right
    Come on
    Let me hear ya
    Let me hear ya
    Let me hear ya
    Let me hear ya
    I can't hear ya
    I can't hear ya
    I can't hear ya, can't hear Writer/s: Edward Alan Clarke, Ian Kilmister, Philip John Taylor
