Lip Service Lyrics - Jimmy Buffett

Lip Service 

By: Jimmy Buffett, Michael Utley 

1981 

For anyone who loves Creole Cookin' and New Orleans music 

Talk-a, talk-a, talk until your jaws turn blue 

But you never really tell me what you're gonna do 

Seem to keep it all locked up inside 

I can't help but start to thinkin' 

You've got somethin' to hide 

Why the pain 

What's your game 

You're drivin' this boy insane 

Oooh what a voodoo, nobody can do like you do

Your bitchin' and your cryin' finally got to me 

So I thought I'd take you baby on a shoppin' spree 

You bought a space age watch and an antique hat 

Hell now it's digital this and digital that 

What a pain 

Silly games 

Still drivin' your man insane 

Oooh what a voodoo, nobody can do like you do 

Chorus: 

Oh darlin' oh darlin' 

All I ever get is lip service from you 

Oh darlin' oh darlin', I'm through 

'Cause all I ever get is lip service from you 

(instrumental)

So listen to me baby 

You got to change your ways 

Or I'm off to Pascagoula in a few more days 

I'll leave you and your poodle and all the mess he makes 

Find some other fool to man your shovel and your rake 

No more pain 

End of game 

You're drivin' yourself insane 

Ooh what a voodoo, nobody can do like you do 

Chorus: 

Oh darlin' oh darlin' 

All I ever get is lip service from you 

Oh darlin' oh darlin', I'm through 

'Cause all I ever get is lip service from you 

Lip service from you (lip service) 

Lip service from you-hoo 

Lip service from you (lip service) 

Lip service from you-hoo 

Lip service from you (lip service) 

Lip service from you-hoo
