Walk Like a Panther - Pretenders

Walk Like a Panther Lyrics

Meguil has set up home
With a woman half my age
A half-wit in a leotard
Stands on my stageThe standards have fallen
My value has dropped but don't shed a tear
Some walk like they own the place
Whilst others creep in fearTry if you can
To walk like a man
But you don't come nearYou've got to fly like an eagle
Prowl like a Lion in Africa
Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonightThe old home town just looks the same
Like a derelict man who has died out of shame
Like a jumble sale left out in the rain
It's not good, it's not rightThe standards have fallen
My value has dropped but don't shed a tear

Some walk like they own the place
Whilst others creep in fearTry if you can
To walk like a man
But you don't come nearYou've got to fly like an eagle
Prowl like a Lion in Africa
Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonightWhere did you leave your self respect?
You look like a reptile
Your house is a wreck
Your existence an insult
And stains that are suspect
Cover your clothesThe standards have fallen
My value has dropped but don't shed a tear
Some walk like they own the place
Whilst others creep in fearTry if you can
To walk like a man
But you don't come nearYou've got to fly like an eagle
Prowl like a Lion in Africa
Leap like a salmon home from the sea
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonightTo keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther
To keep up with me
You've got to walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
Walk like a panther tonight
