lyrics

Bachelor Pad

I use to live with my parents
But now I got my own pad
Use to live with my parents
I have got a crib and it's bad
Bachelor Pad
My crib and it is bad - oh - yeah

With my indirect lighting and a bear skin rug
Keep collections of the paintings I always dug
I got color cued bathrooms stocked with his and her towels
I got lamb on a leash my kind of fowl

The logical deduction is this a point of seduction?
Once you come in you will commit a mortal sin
Pour a double scotch turn the lights down low
Bachelor pad waterbed the place you go

You think I dig my bachelor pad
I bet you can't count the fun and misery I've had
Check out my brand new coke spoon it can give you a buzz
When you get wasted what a create you was
Bachelor pad my crib and it is bad - oh - yeah

Why waste your money in an overcrowded bistro?
My bachelor pad it is the very coolest disco
Come about five I'll zoom my love for you
Jump in my Corvette it is a road huggin' coupe

My bachelor pad ain't no opium den
Pajamas I pronounce you can't remember when
Just playin' my problems everything we do
Eat your parents it's the thing to do

I got the money and the longest coolest disco
My bachelor pad it is the very coolest bistro
Come about five I'll zoom my love for you
Jump in my Corvette it is a road huggin' coupe
Bachelor pad my crib and it is bad - oh

I use to live with my parents
Bachelor Pad
But now I got my own pad
You know I couldn't do nothin' that was cool and bad
Bachelor Pad
'Cause it's my bachelor pad whoa

Yeah bachelor pad
Bachelor pad
My crib and it is cool and bad
