I've always been considered quite a delicate child
Watched over by a governess and nurse
To say I've lived a sheltered life is putting it mild
I promise you it couldn't be much worse
Mother always called me her hot house rose
All the dates I had were with hot house -
But now that I am old enough to cast a few votes
I'm going out and sow a few oats
So treat me rough
Muss my hair
Don't you dare to handle me with care
I'm no innocent child, baby
Keep on treating me wild
Treat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weak
I've been pampered enough, baby
Keep on treatin' me rough
Treat me rough
Muss my hair
Don't you dare to handle me with care
I'm no innocent child, baby
Keep on treating me wild
Treat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weak
I've been pampered enough, baby
Keep on treatin' me rough
Can't get enough
Treat me rough
Muss my hair
Don't you dare to handle me with care
I'm no innocent child, baby
Keep on treating me wild
Treat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weak
I've been pampered enough, baby
Keep on treatin' me rough
When I was born, they found a silver spoon in my mouth
I had a barber just to curl my hair
If winter came the mater carried me to the south
The point is that I had the best of care
Women and headwaiters fawned on me
Life was just a bore till it dawned on me
That if I ever want to be a man amongst men
I'd have to be man-handled now and then
So treat me rough
Muss my hair
Don't you dare to handle me with care
I'm no innocent child, baby
Keep on treating me wild
Treat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weak
I've been pampered enough, baby
Keep on treatin' me rough
