   Em                             G
Revlon on her face, like it's warpaint
Black car, back seat, sippin' champagne
She's a sweet thing, trouble is her middle name
She's looking for a little tonight
She's downtown and out on a mission
Five foot three, all demolition
Hotter than a cast iron in the kitchen
Just livin' her best life

          A
She's a wrecking ball, looking for a wall to break
Thief in the night, tryna find a heart to take
B
Gasoline waitin' on a match to strike
Maneater with an appetite

Chorus:
          A
Lips are red, heels are high
Dress is short, it's on skin tight
B
Oh, get ready or get out of the way
                                         Em
When she rolls in, rockin' like a hurricane
Better watch your man
Better watch yourself
'Cause when she walks in
Poor everybody else
Yeah, poor everybody else

She had her heart broke once, said, "Never again"
That's too bad for the rest of them
'Cause she's givin' 'em a dose of their own medicine

She's a wrecking ball, looking for a wall to break
Thief in the night, tryna find a heart to take
Gasoline waitin' on a match to strike
Maneater with an appetite

Chorus:
Lips are red, heels are high
Dress is short, it's on skin tight
Oh, get ready or get out of the way
When she rolls in rockin' like a hurricane
Better watch your man
Better watch yourself
'Cause when she walks in
Poor everybody else, yeah
Poor everybody else

Em                   G
She will steal the show
Em              G
Everywhere she goes
Em                      G
All the girls on high alert
                Em
'Cause all the guys got eyes on her

She's a wrecking ball, looking for a wall to break
Thief in the night, tryna find a heart to take
Gasoline waitin' on a match to strike
Maneater with an appetite

Chorus:
Lips are red, heels are high
Dress is short, it's on tonight
Oh, get ready or get out of the way
When she rolls in rockin' like a hurricane
Better watch your man
Better watch yourself
'Cause when she walks in
Poor everybody else, yeah
Poor everybody else

Poor everybody else
Ooh, oh
Mmm, poor everybody else
