NOEL:
In my life, I was Noel Gruber who worked at Taco Bell in Uranium City, Saskatchewan. But in my dreams I played a different role. I was Monique Chabot in post-war France!
A HOOKER WITH A HEART OF BLACK CHARCOAL
I WRITE POEMS TO BURN BY FIRELIGHT
DRINK CHAMPAGNE AND GUZZLE GIN
THE GIRLS CALL ME "THE TOWN BICYCLE"
DON'T KNOCK IT 'TIL YOU'VE TRIED MY LIFE OF SIN
OH, CLAUDE, MY PIMP, KNOWS NEVER MESS WITH ME
LAST JERK DID THAT FADED QUICK TO BLACK
I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO FIND HIM, OFFICERS
BUT IF YOU DO, PLEASE MENTION THAT I'D
LIKE TO HAVE RETURNED THE PRETTY KNIFE
THAT I STUCK TEN TIMES IN HIS BACK!
[Sips, swallows.]
FOR I SING SONGS UNTIL THE BREAK OF DAWN
I EMBRACE A NEW MAN EVERY NIGHT
MY LIFE'S ONE NEVER-ENDING CARNIVAL
NOEL AND CHOIR:
A WORLD OF BOOZY-FLOOZY FLASHING LIGHT
I WANT TO BE THAT MESSED UP GIRL
[Instrumental]
