[length: 04:03]
[00:30.73]Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade
[00:34.73]She worked the night shift
[00:39.38]Dishwater blonde
[00:40.75]Tall and fine
[00:43.09]She got a lot of tips
[00:47.94]Well
[00:48.89]Earlier I’d been talkin’ stuff in a violent room
[00:53.67]Fightin’ with a lover’s past
[00:56.68]I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
[01:02.59]Dorothy was fast
[01:06.30]Well
[01:07.94]I ordered
[01:09.37]”Yeah, lemme get a fruit cocktail
[01:10.96]I ain’t too hungry”
[01:12.17]Dorothy laughed
[01:15.01]She said “sound like a real man 2 me
[01:17.95]U’re kinda cute
[01:20.32]Do u wanna take a bath?” (do you want, do you want)
[01:25.47]Oh, I said “cool, but I’m leaving my pants on cuz I’m kinda going with someone”
[01:34.81]She said “sound like a real man 2 me
[01:38.35]Mind if I turn on the radio?
[01:43.98]Oh, my favorite song!” she said, and it was Joni singing “Help me, I think I’m falling…”
[01:51.44]Ring!
[01:52.79]The phone rang and she said “whoever’s calling can’t be as cute as u”
[01:59.76]Right then and there I knew I was through
[02:03.37]Dorothy Parker was cool
[02:07.32]Well…
[02:12.79]My pants were wet
[02:14.37]They came off but she didn’t see the movie cuz she hadn’t read the book first
[02:21.99]Instead, she pretended she was blind – an affliction brought on by the witch’s curse
[02:30.31]Dorothy made me laugh
[02:32.71]I felt much better so I went back to the violent room
[02:38.03]Let me tell u what I did…
[02:40.10]I took another bubble bath with my pants on
[02:46.06]All the fighting stopped
[02:47.32]Next time I’ll do it sooner
[02:53.64]This is the ballad of Dorothy Parker (Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker)
[03:00.75]Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
[03:06.01]Well
[03:27.62]Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
[03:36.35]Well
