Lyrics: Lex Zaleta. The Hopin' Road. I Noticed Your Tattoo.

You showed up at the party
Dressed just like a man.
My brother laughed so hard he
Split his brand new pants
You didn't seem to notice
You caused quite a stir.
I really think your boat is
Missing an anchor.

Don't mean to be uncouth,
But to tell you the truth,
I noticed your tattoo
Before I noticed you.

You were showing everyone
Your brand new tattoo,
And when you flexed your big gun,
That tattoo grew too.
Wouldn't have been so bad if
They were two red hearts;
What made the scene so sad is
That they were male parts.


Don't mean to be uncouth,
But to tell you the truth,
I noticed your tattoo
Before I noticed you.

You do attract a crowd,
And they all cheer so loud,
But they notice your tattoo
Before they notice you.

So, I guess that the pen is
Mightier than the sword.
My only question then is:
How much ink can you afford?

Don't mean to be uncouth,
But to tell you the truth,
I noticed your tattoo
Before I noticed you.
