Lyrics
The wineglass is empty, ashtray is full
Before you take her home, there’s something you should know
She is the talk of marilyn county
And there’s a thing or two i know that she’ll never do
Her neo-retro polyester velvet platform shoes
Her purple head, her shrink had said, should surely cure the blues
She is the talk of marilyn county
And there’s a thing or two i know that she’ll never do
The ring on her finger’s now in her nose
And in case you’re wondering, that’s her mantra tattooed on her toes
She is the talk of marilyn county
And there’s a thing or two i know that she’ll never do
