Mistress of the Senator |
| I can play the mistress of the senator |
| Stash me in a comfortable high rise |
| That’s convenient to the Hill |
| And after making some speech, or singing some bill |
| You’ll drop in for lunch, and if you never take lunch |
| With me around, you will |
| I’ll play the mistress of the senator |
| I look in red or white or blue |
| I’ll friendly to Republicans |
| I’ll be anything for you |
| I can play advisor to the congressman |
| Hire me to work on your image |
| I’ll manipulate the press |
| We’ll buy a registered house with a Georgetown address |
| We’ll write the place off as a work expense |
| And screw the IRS |
| I’ll play advisor the congressman |
| That’s a role that take a lot of soul to do |
| I’ll be useful down in Washington |
| I’ll be anything for you |
| I need a change of scenery, I need a career |
| I need a new adventure, and I can’t wait another year |
| I can’t wait another day, not when I have you |
| You need to win important races |
| I need to play in better places |
| Let me play the lover of the President |
| Set up in a wing of the White House |
| We can share the swimming pool |
| You’ll let me decide who’s hot or cool |
| Important or not, friend or fool |
| I’ll play Lady Bird, Rosalynn, Pat |
| I’ll play Jackie better than Jackie did and not use a hat |
| I’ll play the good wife, the martyr |
| The asset, the plus |
| I’ll play myself in the movie of us |
| In the movie of us, in the movie of us |
| You need a lover, I’ll be your lover |
| I’ll stay your lover, I’ll be |
| I’ll be— |
| I’ll be happy down in Washington |
| I’ll be what you want, I’ll be anything |
| For you |
| You |
| You |
| You |
| You |
