Smelling like a brewery,
|
looking like a tramp
|
I ain't got a quarter
|
got a postage stamp
|
Been five o'clock shadow boxing
|
all around the town
|
Talking with the old men
|
sleeping on the ground
|
Bazanti bootin
|
al zootin al hoot
|
and Al Cohn
|
sharin this apartment
|
with a telephone pole
|
and it's a fish-net stockings
|
spike-heel shoes
|
Strip tease, prick tease
|
car kease blues
|
and the porno floor show
|
live nude girls
|
dreamy and creamy
|
and the brunette curls
|
Chesty Morgan and a
|
Watermelon Rose
|
raise my rent and take off
|
all your clothes
|
with the trench coats
|
magazines bottle full of rum
|
she's so good, it make
|
a dead man cum, with
|
pasties and a g-string
|
beer and a shot
|
Portland through a shot glass
|
and a Buffalo squeeze
|
wrinkles and cherry
|
and twinky and pinky
|
and FeFe live from Gay Paree
|
fanfares rim shots
|
back stage who cares
|
all this hot burlesque for me
|
|
cleavage, cleavage thighs and hips
|
from the nape of her neck
|
to the lip stick lips
|
chopped and channeled
|
and lowered and louvered
|
and a cheater slicks
|
and baby moons
|
she's hot and ready
|
and creamy and sugared
|
and the band is awful
|
and so are the tunes
|
|
crawlin on her belly shakin like jelly
|
and I'm getting harder than
|
Chinese algebraziers and cheers
|
from the compendium here
|
hey sweet heart they're yellin for more
|
squashing out your cigarette butts
|
on the floor
|
and I like Shelly
|
you like Jane
|
what was the girl with the snake skins name
|
it's an early bird matinee
|
come back any day
|
getcha little sompin
|
that cha can't get at home
|
getcha little sompin
|
that cha can't get at home
|
pasties and a g-string
|
beer and a shot
|
Portland through a shot glass
|
and a Buffalo squeeze
|
popcorn, front row
|
higher than a kite
|
and I'll be back tomorrow night
|
and I'll be back tomorrow night
|
