The Dirty Shame
"Say Goodnight, Crazy Lady"

I was a man and you were a woman
and we were guests at the Ramada Inn
We were in town in the name of business
but the pleasure was about to begin
We pushed our way past the Karaoke singers
and past the midgets and ladies in leather
I bought the drinks and you bought the money now
and we bought ourselves a little time together

Don't tell me your secrets
Don't tell me your lies
Just make me an offer
cut me down to size
Don't tell me your name
Don't tell me where you're from
Say goodnight crazy lady
my work here is done

I wrapped you up in an American flag
put you in the corner and forced you to sing
we were underdressed for the occasion
nobody was wearing anything
Now mama don't let your baby
grow up to be another business man
take away his credit card before he can use it now
and save his soul
as fast as you can

Don't give me your number
Don't give me your card
Just sing me to sleep
and drive away in your car
Pull the sheet over me
and cover up my head
Say goodnight crazy lady
your baby's dead

Your baby's dead

I was hired
You were hired
We were hired

I was fired
You were fired
We were fired

We were permanently retired
retired

How could I be expected to work under these conditions?

Don't tell me your secrets
Don't tell me your lies
Just make me an offer
cut me down to size
Don't tell me your secrets
Don't tell me your lies
Just make me an offer
cut me down to size

Say goodnight!
(Don't tell me your secrets)
Say goodnight crazy lady
(Don't tell me your lies)
Your baby's dead
(Just make me an offer)
Say goodnight crazy lady
(cut me down to size)
Your baby's dead

(Don't tell me your secrets)
Say goodnight crazy lady your baby's dead!
(Don't tell me your lies)
Say goodnight crazy lady
(Just make me an offer....)
Say goodnight!
