Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade,
She worked the night shift.
Dishwater blonde....tall...fine...
...she got a lot of tips.

Well....

Earlier I'd been talkin stuff in a violent room,
Fighting with lovers past,
I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine...
...Dorothy was fast.

I ordered, "yeah lemme get a fruit cocktail,
I aint too hungry"
Dorothy laughed.
She said, "sounds like a real man to me,
wanna take a bath?"

Bath?

I said "cool, but I'm leavin my pants on,
cause I'm kinda goin with someone"

She said, "sounds like a real man to me.
Mind if I turn on the radio?"

"Ooohhhh, my favorite song!" she said,
And it was Joni singing "help me I think I'm falling"

*ding, ring* the phone rang, and she said,
"Whoever is calling can't be as cute as you"
Right then and there I knew I was through.
(Dorothy Parker was cool)

My pants were wet, they came off.
But she didn't see the movie,
Cause she hadn't read the book 1st.

Instead, she pretended she was blind.
An affliction brought on by a witches curse.
Dorothy made me laugh.
I felt much better so I went back to the violent room.

I took another bubble bath....
With my pants on.
All the fighting stopped.
Next time, I'll do it sooner.

This is the ballad of Dorothy Parker.
