Courtesans |
| Well, courtesans shed no tears |
| When you leave them high and dry |
| They just go on, they just go on |
| To the next guy |
| 'Cause courtesans only want |
| Compensation for their time: |
| A few kind words, a few kind words |
| They need not rhyme |
| A sable coat, maybe a hat |
| Oh, I wish I could be like that |
| But courtesans are not like me |
| They don’t take love very hard |
| Their hearts are free, their hearts are free |
| How avant-garde |
| If no one loves them when they’re old |
| They’ll sit upon their chains of gold |
| You say you’ll love them till you die |
| And they don’t care if it’s a lie |
| 'Cause courtesans don’t believe |
| In anybody but themselves |
| And Santa Claus, and Santa Claus |
| And his twelve elves |
