==Lyrics== | |||
<lyrics> | |||
Well she’s shaving her legs and she’s feelin’ all right | |||
She’s puttin’ on jeans of the type that are tight | |||
She’s gettin’ herself ready to take on the night | |||
So come on, come on | |||
Man, if you’d seen this girl about two years ago | |||
Seen her then and seen her now | |||
I swear you’d never know | |||
That who you was seein’ was the same pistachio | |||
Oh come on, come on | |||
Sheila can do it | |||
I can do it | |||
I don’t see the problem with that | |||
She is my other | |||
A sister to a brother | |||
And look at the thing that she’s done | |||
She looks like she’s havin’ fun | |||
And I don’t see the problem with that | |||
La la la | |||
</lyrics> | |||
==Trivia== | |||
Though the meaning of the song is unknown, an early set of handwritten lyrics for the song is displayed in Cuomo's book [[The Pinkerton Diaries]], wherein the name Rachel was used instead of Sheila. | |||
During a Homie performance of the song at The Middle East in Boston, a woman exclaimed “That’s me!” upon Cuomo’s announcement of the song title. During this performance at TT & The Bear’s a few weeks later, Cuomo asks if the same Sheila is there (she wasn’t). | |||
