I drive down to the disco: Pompadour and pink lammé.
I bow and blow the doorman: He parts the chain, says join the game.
A quick line in the girls’ room: To the bar for the electrodes.
A coin into the right slits: Tape my temple, watch me go
Blacks are banned, except on the records. Oh life's a cabaret,
Like Berlin, 1930s. All I crave is my escape.
Now I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips
And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes.
Slip my fingers down your Barbie-doll dress,
Up and down your spandex ass.
If I lit a match to you, you'd melt before my eyes.
Come here, my pretty glow-worm, you look so fine to dance with me.
The fly-eye lights are throbbing, I'm burning up the floor.
Whirling, twirling, close my eyes: No faces judging me.
But I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips
And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes.
Slip my fingers down your Barbie-doll dress,
Up and down your spandex ass.
A Hitler youth in jogging suit, smiling face banded 'round his arm,
Says, 'Line up, you've got work to do: We need dog food for the poor'.
A scream bleats out, we're herded into lines.
Customized vans wait outside.
I'm getting scared of my new home,
To Auschwitz condominiums we go.
Oh no.
Now I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips
And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes.
Let my fingers down your dress
One more time.
