[DG]  When you want to greet a friend on the street,

Just slip him some skin.

When he comes to you, all you gotta do

Is slip him some skin.

[SC]  Slip him some skin.

He won’t even have to ask.

It don’t make no sense to ask.

Hold out your hand.  Stick out your chin.

Slip him some skin.  Slip him some skin.

[DG, SC]  You don’t need a skill.  Who needs a special skill

To skip you that skin,

When you begin to let your best friend

Slip you that skin?  Slip you that skin.

This ain’t somethin’ you should skip.

A first-class genuine super flip.

One terrific slip of the skin, skin, skin.

Skin, skin, skin.

Skin, skin, skin.

Skin, skin, skin.
