00:00:11.500 --> 00:00:13.400
Her name was Kitty
00:00:13.500 --> 00:00:16.000
Made her money being pretty and witty
00:00:16.500 --> 00:00:19.100
They gave her the keys to this city
00:00:19.300 --> 00:00:23.100
Then they said she didn't
do it legitly, oh
00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:25.100
I bought a ticket
00:00:25.700 --> 00:00:28.400
She's dancing in her garters
and fishnets
00:00:28.700 --> 00:00:31.400
Fifty in the cast, zero missteps
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:34.700
Looking back, I guess it was kismet
00:00:35.300 --> 00:00:39.900
I waited by the stage door, packed
in with the autograph hounds
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:43.300
Barking her name, then glowing
like the end of a cigarette
00:00:43.400 --> 00:00:44.900
Wow, she came out
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.100
I said, "You're living my drеam"
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:51.600
Then she said to me
00:00:51.700 --> 00:00:55.700
"Hеy, thank you for the lovely bouquet
00:00:55.800 --> 00:00:57.400
You're sweeter than a peach
00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:01.800
But you don't know the life
of a showgirl, babe
00:01:01.900 --> 00:01:03.900
And you're never ever gonna
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:07.800
Wait, the more you play,
the more that you pay
00:01:07.900 --> 00:01:09.500
You're softer than a kitten
00:01:09.600 --> 00:01:14.000
So you don't know the life
of a showgirl, babe
00:01:14.100 --> 00:01:16.700
And you're never gonna wanna"
00:01:18.100 --> 00:01:19.900
She was a menace
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:22.900
The baby of the family in Lenox
00:01:23.100 --> 00:01:26.100
Her father whored around
like all men did
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.100
Her mother took pills
and played tennis
00:01:30.800 --> 00:01:34.300
So she waited by the stage door
as the club promoter arrived
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:39.800
She said, "I'd sell my soul to
have a taste of a magnificent
life that's all mine"
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:43.000
But that's not what showgirls get
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:46.500
They leave us for dead
00:01:46.600 --> 00:01:50.300
Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:52.100
You're sweeter than a peach
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:56.600
But you don't know the life
of a showgirl, babe
00:01:56.700 --> 00:01:58.500
And you're never ever gonna
00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:02.400
Wait, the more you play,
the more that you pay
00:02:02.500 --> 00:02:04.100
You're softer than a kitten
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:08.800
So you don't know the life
of a showgirl, babe
00:02:08.900 --> 00:02:11.000
And you're never gonna wanna
00:02:11.100 --> 00:02:13.900
I took her pearls of wisdom,
hung them from my neck
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:17.200
I paid my dues with every bruise,
I knew what to expect
00:02:17.300 --> 00:02:20.200
Do you wanna take a skate on
the ice inside my veins?
00:02:20.300 --> 00:02:23.900
They ripped me off like false lashes
and then threw me away
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.500
And all the headshots on the walls
00:02:27.600 --> 00:02:30.400
Of the dance hall are of the bitches
00:02:30.500 --> 00:02:35.200
Who wish I'd hurry up and die
00:02:35.300 --> 00:02:39.900
But I'm immortal now, baby dolls
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.100
I couldn't if I tried
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.400
So I say
00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:49.800
"Thank you for the lovely bouquet
