39.Navy Nurse
I got warnings from jealous friends
Cases of borrowed clothes and a vial of Dramamine from my mother
And she said, 'Forget what mom likes 'cause things have changed'
Taught me how to make booze at home
Call it 'Old Uncle Zeke' and drink it early next week
Now, if there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
If there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
If there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
It's nice to go nautical when choosing a doormat
Oh, so nice to go nautical when choosing a doormat
I trust my navy nurse smile will put them on their feet again
I know my navy nurse smile will put them on their feet again
Save a glacier name for my daughter
For when the snow turns red, when the train pulls away
Listen to them whisper:
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
So on a warm winter night
On a worry-free winter night
Still a woman who enjoys feminine props
like a filmy sky crowded with filmy white clouds
In parrot green and lemon yellow
Appeared champagne's daughter
Sitting in a blue lacquered chair with wide gypsy stripes
If there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
If there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
If there's anything I've had enough of, it's today
For it seems no matter whether I weekend in Nice or Newark
I get no peace, so you shirk
The excursion and watch them remove from the hold
This year's champion Dwarf Marigold
This year's champion Dwarf Marigold
This year's champion Dwarf Marigold
This year's champion Dwarf Marigold
But as there's no snakeroot anywhere on the vessel
Or at any of the scheduled landings
And certainly no leopard flower
At least he's a first-class gold brick
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
(She's alert, she's open-minded, she's involved)
Took the velvet-caped me, let me tell you, from the golden slope
Riding the golden gulf weave
Park this Florida houseboat
On the rocky coast so I can see
Sit side by side beside myself me
On a ninety inch sofa and matching loveseat
Listen to them whisper:
'If there's anything I've had enough of it's tonight
If there's anything I've had enough of it's tonight
If there's anything I've had enough of it's tonight'
