Meanwhile, on Wall Street...
|
|
On the Planet of the Baritone Women
|
They talk low
|
'Bout stuff they know.
|
|
They sing "Oooh!"
|
And laugh at you
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah! Hey!)
|
|
If you can't
|
(IF YOU CAN'T)
|
Do it too
|
(DO IT TOO)
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah! Hey!)
|
|
They sing "Li-Li-Li-Li!"
|
They sing "Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo!"
|
The men carry purses
|
Wherever they go
|
|
Junior executives.
|
All in a row,
|
Watch the Baritone Women
|
Do the Baritone show
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah! Hey!)
|
|
They sing about wheat;
|
They sing about corn;
|
They sing about places
|
Where women was born
|
|
They sing about hate!
|
They sing about fear!
|
It seems like they all got
|
A pretty good ear
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah! Hey!)
|
|
They sing it in harmony
|
Not often heard,
|
With a big ol' cadenza...
|
(Robert Martin, from Philadelphia,
|
Curtis Institute graduate, 1971
|
Let's hear it for him!)
|
On every long word
|
|
They keep it as low
|
As they possibly can,
|
And sometimes they walk
|
Like an E-GYP-TIAN
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah! Hey!)
|
|
They do choreography
|
Still more unique!
|
They leave their legs open
|
Whenever they speak!
|
|
They roll their eyes upward
|
And over again,
|
And slam their legs closed
|
When they sing about men!
|
|
Those Baritone Women!
|
They are not your friend!
|
(Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah!)
|
|
You will make a mistake
|
If you go there again!
