"The Nun's Litany" lyrics
"The Nun's Litany"
I want to be a playboy's bunny
I'd do whatever they asked me to
I'd meet people with lots of money
And men would love me like I loved you
I want to be a topless waitress
I want my mother to shed one tear
I'd throw away this old sedate dress
Slip into something a tad more sheer
I want to be an artist's model
An odalisque, au naturel
I should be good at spin-the-bottle
While I've still got something left to sell
I want to be a cobra dancer
With Little Willy between my thighs
I may not find a cure for cancer
But I'll meet plenty of single guys
I want to be a brothel worker
I've always been treated like one
If I could be a back-street lurker
I'd make more money and have more fun
I want to be a dominatrix
Which isn't like me, but I can dream
Learn S&M and all those gay tricks
And men will pay me to make them scream
I want to be a porno starlet
For that, I'll wait 'til Mama's dead
I'd see my name in lights of scarlet
And get to spend every day in bed
I want to be a tattooed lady
Dedicated, as I am, to art
Characters bold, complex, and shady
Will write my memoirs across my heart
