[Intro]
2, 3
[Verse 1]
I'm all for strong women and what they have to say
They deserve liberation, same work, equal pay
I like restaurants or parties with mixed company
But there's times I like hanging with just my buddies and me
[Verse 2]
Lately, there's a lady who's lurking about
Finds the times and the places the boys are gonna hang out
And she thinks we'll consider her just one of us
If she drinks like a sailor and knows how to cuss
[Chorus 1]
Well, put a lid on it, baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
Your long story is boring
Jokes obnoxious at best
Put a lid on it, baby
Give your pie hole a rest
[Verse 3]
Now my wife is a wonder, she's my dearest friend
She can charm all the ladies, hold her own with the men
Now she and her girlfriends will get together sometimes
For chewing the fat and speaking their minds
[Verse 4]
And she can't comprehend the woman's lack of respect
For the break we all need from the opposite sex
Or people so plainly unsure of themselves
That they have to pretend they are somebody else
[Chorus 2]
Put a lid on it, baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
We're too kind to tell you
That we all think it best
You put a lid on it, baby
Give your pie hole a rest
[Verse 5]
Most bands have their Yoko, each day has a night
Hillary has Bubba, Ben Franklin loved kites
Now we're sitting here wondering, we just don't understand
How a gal thinks we'll dig her if she acts like a man
[Chorus 3]
Put a lid on it, baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
You're smart and you're purdy
But with us, you're a mess
Put a lid on it, baby
Give your pie hole a rest
Put a lid on it, baby
Give your pie hole a rest
[Outro]
Please, baby
