Lyrics Zip - Rita Hayworth

Zip

In Paris I headlined the follies
I was doll of all the dollies
Admired by the great Stradinsky
But my greatest achievement, in the high of my career
Was the time I starred for… Minsky
You’re looking at a former stripper
But before I unzip ONE zipper
I want you to know that I was quite the artist
But… of the intelectual kind
What was I thinking while I worked in my desk?
While I worked this thoughts kept crossing my mind
REFRAIN 1
Zip!
Walter Lippman wasn’t brilliant today
Zip!
Will the giants ever take it away?
Zip!
I was reading Schopenhauer last night
Zip!
and I think that Schopenhauer was right.
I don’t want to see Zarina
I don’t want to meet Cobina
Zip!
I’m an intellectual
I don’t like a deep contralto
Or a man whose voice is alto
Zip!
I’m an heterosexual.
Zip!
I took intellect to master my art
Zip!
Who the hell is Margie Hart
REFRAIN 2
Zip!
I consider Dali’s paintings passé
Zip!
Can they make the Metropolitan pay?
Zip!
English people don’t say clerk, they say clark
Zip!
Anybody who says clark is a jark!
I have read the great Kabala
And I simply worship Allah
Zip!
I am suck a mystic.
I don’t care for Whistler’s Mother
Charlie’s Aunt and Shuber’s brother
Zip!
I’m misogynists
Zip!
My intelligence is guiding my hand
Zip!
who the hell is Sally Rand?
