If I smell trouble I walk the other way If I see trouble I must protect my face I need a stunt double to safeguard my fate Looking for a rumble really isn't me It's just not in me to run and hide I say quite simply it's not my style Better to turn and walk away And live to fight another day If I smell trouble I tend to cross the street If I see trouble I'm nimble on my feet One who is the loser is he who hesitates No time for confrontation it's really such a waste It's just not in me to run and hide I say quite simply it's not my style Better to turn and walk away And live to fight another day I've no jelly backbone-or no yellow streak Got no white feathers-turn the other cheek If all that snide talking goes on behind my back It's really just like water off a duck's back ! If I smell trouble I walk the other way If I see trouble I must protect my face One who is the loser is he who hesitates No time for confrontation it's really such a waste It's just not in me to run and hide I say quite simply it's not my style Better to turn and walk away And live to fight another day I've no jelly backbone-or no yellow streak Got no white feathers-turn the other cheek If all that snide talking goes on behind my back It's really just like water off a duck's back !
