Heavy Burdens

I still remember what she said, the bitch
Her eyes were of the deepest shade of blue
If you're so smart, how come you ain't rich?

Although she was a smooth and supple witch
That afternoon she showed me round the zoo
I still remember what she said, the bitch

Smiling about the hot dogs and the itch
And "yes, I cannot say but that it's true"
If you're so smart, how come you ain't rich?

I thought at last I'd found my only niche
Free from the brainrot of all I knew
I still remember what she said, the bitch

Standing there before me without a stitch
The shadows along her lipcurves grew
If you're so smart, how come you ain't rich?

Now navels sprout in season, but only wrench
New scorn from a man who knows he's through
I still remember what she said, the bitch
If you're so smart, how come you ain't rich?
