88 Lines About 44 Women |
Deborah was a Catholic girl |
She held out till the bitter end |
Carla was a different type |
She’s the one who put it in |
Mary was a black girl |
I was afraid of a girl like that |
Susan painted pictures |
Sitting down like a Buddha sat |
Reno was a nameless girl |
A geographic memory |
Cathy was a Jesus freak |
She liked that kind of misery |
Vicki had a special way |
Of turning sex into a song |
Kamela, who couldn’t sing |
Kept the beat and kept it strong |
Xylla was an archetype |
The voodoo queen, the queen of wrath |
Joan thought men were second best |
To masturbating in a bath |
Sherry was a feminist |
She really had that gift of gab |
Kathleen’s point of view was this |
Take whatever you can grab |
Seattle was another girl |
Who left her mark upon the map |
Karen liked to tie me up |
And left me hanging by a strap |
Jeannie had this nightclub walk |
That made grown men feel underage |
Mary Ellen, who had a son |
Said I must go, but finally stayed |
Gloria, the last taboo |
Was shattered by her tongue one night |
Mimi brought the taboo back |
And held it up before the light |
Marilyn, who knew no shame |
Was never ever satisfied |
Julie came and went so fast |
She didn’t even say goodbye |
Rhonda had a house in Venice |
Lived on brown rice and cocaine |
Patty had a house in Houston |
Shot cough syrup in her veins |
Linda thought her life was empty |
Filled it up with alcohol |
Katherine was much too pretty |
She didn’t do that shit at all |
Uh huh, not Katherine |
Pauline thought that love was simple |
Turn it on and turn it off |
Jean-Marie was complicated |
Like some French filmmaker’s plot |
Gina was the perfect lady |
Always kept her stockings straight |
Jackie was a rich punk rocker |
Silver spoon and a paper plate |
Sarah was a modern dancer |
Lean pristine transparency |
Janet wrote bad poetry |
In a crazy kind of urgency |
Tanya Turkish liked to fuck |
While wearing leather biker boots |
Brenda’s strange obsession |
Was for certain vegetables and fruit |
Rowena was an artist’s daughter |
The deeper image shook her up |
Dee Dee’s mother left her father |
Took his money and his truck |
Debbie Ray had no such problems |
Perfect Norman Rockwell home |
Nina, 16, had a baby |
Left her parents, lived alone |
Bobbi joined a New Wave band |
Changed her name to Bobbi Sox |
Eloise, who played guitar |
Sang songs about whales and cops |
Terri didn’t give a shit |
Was just a nihilist |
Ronnie was much more my style |
Cause she wrote songs just like this |
Jezebel went forty days |
Drinking nothing but Perrier |
Dinah drove her Chevrolet |
Into the San Francisco Bay |
Judy came from Ohio |
She’s a Scientologist |
Amaranta, here’s a kiss |
I chose you to end this list |
