3. It's a way of standing, started by Bruce Smith of the Buffalo Bills

Who’s that gigolo on the street
With his hands in his pockets and his crocodile feet
Hanging off the curb, looking all disturbed
At the boys from home. they all came running
They were making noise, manhandling toys
That’s the girls on the block with the nasty curls
Wearing padded bras sucking beers through straws
Dropping down their drawers, where did you get yours?

Gigolo, huh, sukka?
Gigolo. gigolo, huh, sukka?

Chorus 1:

Who’s looking good today?
Who’s looking good in every way?
No style rookie
You better watch don’t mess with me

Chorus 2:

No moneyman can win my love
It’s sweetness that I’m thinking of.
We always hang in a buffalo stance
We do the dive every time we dance
I’ll give you love baby not romance
I’ll make a move nothing left to chance
So don’t you get fresh with me

Get funky. yeah timmy.
Tell it like it is. check out this dj.

So you say you wanted money but you know it’s never funny
When your shoes worn through and there’s a rumble in your tummy
But you had to have style get a gold tooth smile
Put a girl on the corner so you can make a pile
Committed a crime and went inside
It was coming your way but you had to survive
When you lost your babe, you lost the race
Now you’re looking at me to take her place.

Chorus 1

Smokin.’ not cokin.’ get funky sax.
Looking good, hanging with the wild bunch.
Looking good in a buffalo stance.
Looking good when it comes to the crunch
Looking good’s a state of mind
State of mind don’t look behind you
State of mind or you’ll be dead
State of mind may I remind you
Bomb the bass...rock this place!
What is he like? what’s he like anyway?
Yo’ man what do you expect the guy’s a gigolo man
You know I mean?

Chorus 2 (twice)

Wind on my face, sound in my ears
Water from my eyes, and you on my mind
As I sink, diving down deep...deeper into your soul.

Chorus 2 ...

13. I haven't heard that in years.
It prompted me to try drinking beer through a straw.
I'll never do that again.

15. All we need to hear now is "Girlfriend"
by Pebbles and all the memories will be flooding back.
Let's change that to "Mercedes Boy". I can buy a can of Aquanet, tease my hair and see if I can still do my old drill team routine to the song!
