[Intro]
Come on out here, Rhonda
[Verse 1]
Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade
She worked the night shift
Dishwater blonde, tall and fine
She made a lot of tips
Oh yes
[Verse 2]
Earlier I'd been talkin' stuff in a violent room
Fightin' with a lover's past
I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
Dorothy was fast, yeah yeah
[Verse 3]
I ordered: "Yeah, let me get a fruit cocktail and a pizza"
Dorothy laughed
She said: "It sound like a real man to me
You're kinda cute, you wanna take a bath?"
Do you wanna bath?
[Verse 4]
Oh, I said: "Cool, but I'm leavin' my pants on
'Cause I'm kinda goin' with someone"
"Sound like a real man to me
Mind if I turn on the radio?"
"Gee, uh, my favorite song," she said
And it was Joni singing:
"Help me, I think I'm falling"
The phone rings
"Whoever's calling can't be as cute as you"
Right then and there I knew I was through
Dorothy Parker was cool
