The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker - With Horns; 2020 Remaster Lyrics

[00:30.15] Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade
[00:35.03] She worked the night shift
[00:38.55] Dishwater blonde, tall and fine
[00:42.64] She got a lot of tips
[00:46.00] Well, earlier I'd been talkin' stuff in a violent room
[00:53.36] Fightin' with lover's past
[00:56.37] I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
[01:00.91] Dorothy was fast
[01:05.38] Well, I ordered, "Yeah, let me get a fruit cocktail, I ain't too hungry"
[01:12.05] Dorothy laughed
[01:14.81] She said, "It sound like a real man to me"
[01:17.03] (You're kinda cute)
[01:18.51] "You're kinda cute, you wanna take a bath?"
[01:20.97] (Do you wanna, do you wanna?)
[01:22.59] Bath?
[01:23.99] Oh, I said, "Cool, but I'm leavin' my pants on (what you say?)
[01:29.49] 'Cause I'm kinda goin' with someone"
[01:34.02] She said, "Sound like a real man to me
[01:37.23] Mind if I turn on the radio?"
[01:43.48] "Oh, my favorite song" she said
[01:46.95] And it was Joni singing, "Help me, I think I'm falling"
[01:50.84] (Drring) the phone rang and she said
[01:53.20] "Whoever's calling can't be as cute as you"
[01:58.69] Right then and there I knew I was through
[02:00.42] (Dorothy Parker was cool)
[02:04.24]
[02:06.38] Well
[02:08.57]
[02:11.85] My pants were wet, they came off
[02:13.82] But she didn't see the movie 'cause she hadn't read the book first
[02:21.11] Instead she pretended she was blind
[02:25.62] An affliction brought on by a witch's curse
[02:30.09] Dorothy made me laugh
[02:31.37] (Ha ha, ha ha)
[02:31.65] I felt much better so I went back to the violent room
[02:36.54] (Tell us what you did, what you did)
[02:37.51] Let me tell you what I did
[02:40.46] I took another bubble bath
[02:42.60] With my pants on
[02:45.58] All the fighting stopped
[02:47.26] Next time I'll do it sooner
[02:52.78] This is the ballad of Dorothy Parker
[02:58.84] Dorothy Parker, Dorothy...
[03:08.18] Dorothy Parker, Dorothy...
[03:19.02] Well
[03:26.95] Dorothy Parker, Dorothy...
[03:35.16] Well
[03:40.02] Oh
[03:41.32]
