• betty davis şarkısı, sözleri de şöyle:
  hey now extra extra have you read about me
  they say ı'm vulgar
  and some people can do without me
  well all ı can say is it's such a shame
  why do they blame me for what ı am?
  hey now
  
  extra extra do you understand me
  well if you don't don't reprimand me
  well ı wish ı could tell it to you another way
  but ı'm telling you the only way that ı know how
  do you dig it
  
  extra extra have you read about me
  well they ı stick out my tongue
  quite lecherously
  well ı really don't know what they're talkin about
  ı just can't seem to keep my tongue in my mouth
  that's all folk
  
  extra extra do you understand me
  well if you don't how can you like me
  well all ı can say is it's such a shame
  ıt really is a pity that you can't get into me
  ı don't care
  
  hey now
  do you know where ı'm going to?
  hey now
  well you're hipper than me if you say that you do
  ıt ain't nothin but some music
  ıt ain't nothin but some fun
  and if ı make you up tight
  that's cause you don't know where ı'm coming from
  and ain't nothin that heavy
  oh such a shame
  ooh that sleazy fame
  oh isn't she a shame
  maybe her mother her mother is to blame
  dear mother
  oh ah mmm what a trashy dame
  oh life is such a shame
  you swing high
  you swing low here ı go again.
