  • In your high school photo
    You looked so young and naïve
    Now I heard you got a nickname
    The lady of the leash

    Well I find you on a midnight shift
    I bet you had your fair share of stiffs
    There were onerous odors
    I've got to admit

    Cause you're a dangerous, dangerous
    A dangerous beauty
    So painfully plain to us
    You're doing your duty

    Who you got there in that hood, you look so fancy in those photographs
    With your rubber gloves on you're a favorite with the Chiefs of Staff

    You're doing such a wonderful job
    You're a natural at working with dogs
    Keeping everyone awake at night
    With a touch of the prods

    Well you're a dangerous, dangerous
    A dangerous beauty
    Yeah, disdainfully, painfully
    A bit of booty, yeah

    You're a dangerous, dangerous
    A dangerous beauty
    Beauty

    Well you're a dangerous, dangerous
    A dangerous beauty
    If I was your captain
    I'd put you soon to bed

    What I say
    Yeah everybody
    Beauty
    Everybody now, yeah

    Are you all tied up, put in a box
    Yeah, dangerous
    Giving them electric shocks
    I've seen the gloves coming off
    Dangerous
    If looks could be killing, I bet you shoot me now Writer/s: KEITH RICHARDS, MICK JAGGER
