I've got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi | |
Guess what? I'm stirring it with a monkey's paw | |
Since I saw you coming out of my barber's shop | |
In that skimpy little halter top | |
Did you light the candles? Did you put on 'Kind of Blue'? | |
Did you use that Ivy League voodoo on him, too? | |
He thinks he'll be alright but he doesn't know for sure | |
Like every other unindicted co conspirator | |
Mata Hari had a house in France | |
Where she worked on all her secret plans | |
Men were falling for her sight unseen | |
She was a genius | |
There's a face in every window of the Songwriters' Neighborhood | |
Everybody's your best friend when you're doing well, I mean good | |
The poet who lived next door when you were young and poor | |
Grew up to be a backstabbing entrepreneur | |
Albert Einstein was a ladies' man | |
While he was working on his universal plan | |
He was making out like Charlie Sheen | |
He was a genius | |
When you dropped me and you staked your claim | |
On a V.I.P. who could make your name | |
You latched on to him and I became | |
Minor inconvenience | |
Your protégé don't care about art | |
I'm the one, who always told you, you were smart | |
You broke my heart into smithereens | |
And that took genius | |
You and the barber make a handsome pair | |
Guess what? I never liked the way he cut your hair | |
I didn't like the way he turned your head | |
But there's nothing I can do or say I haven't done or said | |
Everybody needs a place to stand | |
And a method for their schemes and scams | |
If I could only get my record clean | |
I'd be a genius |
I' ve got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi | |
Guess what? I' m stirring it with a monkey' s paw | |
Since I saw you coming out of my barber' s shop | |
In that skimpy little halter top | |
Did you light the candles? Did you put on ' Kind of Blue'? | |
Did you use that Ivy League voodoo on him, too? | |
He thinks he' ll be alright but he doesn' t know for sure | |
