Intro:                                    Yesterday I went shopping buddy down to the mall Looking for something pretty I could hang on my wall I knocked over a lamp before it hit the floor I caught it A salesman turned around said "boy you break that thing you bought it" You can look but you better not touch boy You can look but you better not touch Mess around and you’ll end up in dutch boy You can look but you better not oh no you better not oh no you better not touch Well I came home from work and I switched to Channel 5 There was a pretty little girly looking straight into my eyes Well I watched as she wiggled back and forth across the screen She didn’t get me excited she just made me feel mean You can look but you better not touch boy You can look but you better not touch Mess around and you’ll end up in dutch boy You can look but you better not oh no you better not oh no you better not touch (Intro) Well I called up Dirty Annie on the telephone I took her out to the drive-in just to get her alone I found a lover’s rendezvous the music low set to park I heard a tapping on the window and a voice in the dark You can look but you better not touch boy You can look but you better not touch Mess around and you’ll end up in dutch boy You can look but you better not oh no you better not oh no you better not touch You can look but you better not touch boy You can look but you better not touch Mess around and you’ll end up in dutch boy You can look but you better not oh no you better not oh no you better not Oh no you better not oh no you better not oh no you better not

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une sorte de mise en garde sur les désirs et les tentations. Le narrateur parle d'un monde où l'on peut regarder et fantasmer, mais où toucher la réalité pourrait engendrer des complications. Il souligne le risque de se laisser entraîner par ses envies et rappelle qu'il vaut mieux rester à distance pour éviter des ennuis. Le contexte de la chanson se situe dans un cadre de flirt et de séduction, où les interactions sont souvent superficielles. On sent une certaine tension entre l'intérêt et la prudence, illustrant les défis des relations d'aujourd'hui. Le narrateur, tout en cherchant à s'amuser, reste conscient des conséquences que ses actions pourraient entraîner.
