Grease It

Danny O’Keefe

[Verse 1]
A man with a big cigar
And a big ol’ diamond ring
Said he’d make me a superstar
Who cares if you can’t sing
You just cut me in for a little piece
He’d say, it’s easy
You just need plenty of grease

[Verse 2]
A hustler from New York City
Said he had the deal for me
Told me it’d cost me nothin’
Now nothin’s usually free
He told me he'd get me a brand new lease
Said, it’s easy
You just need plenty of grease

[Chorus]
Bigger they come
The harder you fall
You’d better get off quickly, though
If you’re gonna get off at all
For they'll take you for a ride
They’ll take you for a ride
Thicker the grease
The farther you slide

[Verse 3]
The groupies out in Frisco
Could tell I was in pain
Told me they could show me how
To play the old ball game
You buy a cake, honey
You’re bound to get a piece
It’s easy
You just need plenty of grease

[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, if the shoe fits you can wear it
If it don’t just grin and bury it
We'll use it, just release it
And if it don’t fit we can grease it

[Chorus]
Bigger they come
The harder you fall
You’d better get off quickly, though
If you’re gonna get off at all
For they'll take you for a ride
Yes, they’ll take you for a ride
Thicker the grease
The farther you slide

[Verse 5]
Now someone wants to grease it
Tell them you don't need the help
You just flip them half a peace sign, brother
And grease it for yourself
You buy a shark, man
You're bound to feed the beast
It's easy
You just need plenty of grease

[Chorus]
Bigger they come
The harder you fall
You’d better get off quickly, though
If you’re gonna get off at all
For they'll take you for a ride
Yes, they’ll take you for a ride
Thicker the grease
The farther you slide
Thicker the grease
The farther you slide
