When she was just a girl
|
She became a woman of the world
|
Soon there wasn't room enough for her
|
In between the bosoms of her family
|
She popped the cork, got on the Greyhound to New York
|
Small-talked her way round just the sort
|
Of playboys' playground she'd once dreamed about
|
|
Maybe I love her, but I'm jealous of her
|
She's a woman of the world
|
|
She's a fake!?sure, but she's a real fake
|
On the make!?making up for lost time
|
Just you wait!?hey, give the girl a break
|
And a fifty dollar bill will see to that
|
Heh, that ain't enough to feed the cat
|
Serve up the rats and super rats
|
Well they just get fatter while she fades away
|
|
Maybe I love her, but I'm jealous of her
|
She's a woman of the world
|
Maybe I hate her, 'cause I didn't create her
|
It's human nature, girl
|
Maybe I'll suffer, just to be her lover
|
Just to be part of her world
|
Maybe I need her, because I want to be her baby, can I be your girl?
|
Maybe I'll kill her, just trying to thrill her if she don't kill me first
|
|
We're making eye-contact
|
Oh those hypnotic eyes attract
|
Such philanthropic flies?that's that.
|
You cannot stop it, so why the devil do you try?
