Lyrics
Since he walked away from her
Her whole life is a mixed up mess
She's hanging off of every man
In knee high boots and a hitched up dress
No self respect, she cruises in
Hits the bar for another gin
Gyrates her way across the floor
Her prey, he can't believe his luck
He's looking for an easy fuck
And now he knows he gonna score
After a man a day
Someone to lead astray
She's on the ricochet
After a man a day
With extra foreplay
She's on the ricochet
She wakes up and she's on a sofa
The workmen drill inside her head
She wonders where on earth she is?
There's a man passed out on a messed up bed
Zips up her boots, goes for the door
She doesn't want to know the score
She vows this time will be the last
The taxi comes, he's kinda cute
Another chance for disrepute
I guess the die's already cast
After a man a day
Someone to lead astray
She's on the ricochet
After a man a day
With extra foreplay
She's on the ricochet
After a man a day
Someone to lead astray
She's on the ricochet
After a man a day
With extra foreplay
She's on the ricochet
She's on the ricochet
She's on the ricochet
