CALL ME A BITCH

from DEMOS by Rick Berlin

/

about

Not exactly 40's noir, but there's something about a take-no-prisoners broad that wins my heart.

lyrics

CALL ME A BITCH

eenie meanie mynie mo
get my baby by the toe
if he hollers let him go
write yr phone number here

hey you
call me a bitch
light my cigarette
fix me a drink
im stable
i ain't killed nobody yet
got my gun in th' closet
+ a bullet in my fist
im justa silly
waitress
chewin gum in my mouth

im workin hard
but im lazy
i think too much
but my brain is blank
i got me a skinny boy
stoned n goin' down

got a mouth on me
+ im trouble
i’m pushin' 40 at least
my feet smell bad
+ i stumble
bartender says i'm fat

skinny boy
come home w/ me
drive my car
got a few ideas
+ a back up plan
+ a ace in my hole
n a finger in yr pocket

i made the bed that i sleep in
the sheets all sweaty + wet
i take a pill t get thru breakfast
i’ll write a note
that i will regret
don’t give me
yr number
don’t call me
i ain’t yr friend

it’s ok
call me a bitch

eenie meanie mynie mo
get my baby by the toe
if he hollers let him go
write yr phone number here
