Take a thousand pin-up girls to stepney to bombay
Take me to fancy restaurants to be amongst the whole milay
And all the blue-eyed gals of 6 foot 3
Are gonna leave you broken down on your knees
Cause in the golden locks and their fluttering lashes
You say, "I told you", all day long

Never (never) trust a blonde
Yeah, never (never) trust a blonde
Just when you thought it was safe to get it on
Watch out for their teeth boys you never trust a blonde

I been dreaming of clinches
With scene stealing wenches
And stars of hollywood and Vine
Too many goofs and ham-fisted moves and blaming it on the wine
Now your best bet's, a hung lovin' brunette
Make it quick boys cause I ain't got long
And turn your back on the girl in black
You never trust a blonde

Never (never) trust a blonde
Yeah, never (never) trust a blonde
Forget all that stuff about ad-men, like my own father
My daddy said, "rocky, don't even trust your mom"!

They all queue in line, they wanna see me hung, drawn and quartered
Sure as anight on the moon shine, a recipe for leaving me slaughtered
So beware of the smell and the lies they all tell
One line from a fair blues song
I'm telling you mate, when the hour gets late
You cannot trust a blonde

Never (never) trust a blonde
Yeah, never (never) trust a blonde
You think you can hide behind peroxide, then you got it wrong, so wrong
Watch out for their teeth boys, never trust a blonde

Here comes another, never trust a blonde
She could be a mother, never trust a blonde
Even in China, they never trust a blonde
She minght be a blinder, never trust a blonde
Never, ever rush 'em, never trust a blonde
It's best if I crush 'em, never trust a blonde
One more for good luck, never trust a blonde
Squeeze in another, never trust a blonde
