Everybody needs a little place to get high
Someone to call a hoe going "nobody inside"
Every now and then we all used to let go
For some it's a doctor, for me it's rock and roll
For some it's the bottle, for some it's the pill
Some people wave their body cause it's giving them a thrill
Others point to figure if they don't like what they see
If you live in a glass house don't be throwing rocks at me

(chorus)
We all need a little shelter
Just a little heifer
To get us high
We all need a little shelter
Just a little heifer
And it will be alright

Check out Mr. Politician in his suit and tie
But when it comes to clothes he'll eat, nothing he won't try
Meanwhile Mr. Medicine's treating his best friend's wife
Tipper led the war against the rebel in the street
She said she saw the devil on her MTV
To look into the telly baby takes more than a key
Just like Jimmy's skeletons, Anastatia Street

(chorus)

(solo)

For some it's a beetle, for some it's the pill
Some people wave their body cause it's giving them a thrill
You can spend your money before you get your pay
With the toss of the dice you can piss it all away

(chorus)

We all need a little shelter
Just a little heifer
And it will be alright
(repeat until end)
