Karen By Night (LP版) - Jill Sobule[00:00:00]
Karen she's my boss at the shoe store[00:00:05]
We sell to the rich on Madison Avenue[00:00:08]
I come in late from Brooklyn on the F train[00:00:12]
Karen says honey make this your last time[00:00:15]
But we like her[00:00:18]
She's firm but approachable[00:00:20]
Dresses in style pretty conservative[00:00:22]
We ask her hey[00:00:25]
Come out with us after work[00:00:27]
Karen she always declines[00:00:29]
And we talk about[00:00:33]
Karen by night[00:00:34]
Imagine she must lead a very dull life[00:00:37]
With just a cat and a book by her side[00:00:40]
We know her by day but we don't know[00:00:44]
Karen by night[00:00:47]
In the stockroom searching for a 9B[00:00:54]
I overheard Karen whisper on the phone[00:00:58]
She said meet me at the club[00:01:01]
There's a shipment coming in[00:01:03]
And I can't pull this one off alone[00:01:04]
Well I didn't know what to think[00:01:08]
Was my mind playing tricks[00:01:10]
Was there more to this Karen then realized[00:01:11]
I had to know so I followed her home[00:01:15]
I could not believe my eyes[00:01:19]
And then I saw[00:01:23]
Karen by night[00:01:24]
The leather comes out under the moonlight[00:01:27]
Takes off her Chanel and hops on her bike[00:01:30]
Looking like young Marlon Brando[00:01:34]
Karen by night[00:01:37]
Saw her leaning on the bar with a drink in hand[00:01:45]
And a cigarette dangling from her bright red lips[00:01:47]
She looked like she was looking for someone[00:01:51]
Like she was looking for a fight[00:01:53]
Then a young blonde buck walked in[00:01:58]
She grabbed him by the collar[00:02:00]
Kissed him hard on the mouth[00:02:02]
And slapped him on the cheek[00:02:03]
Then I thought she spied me[00:02:05]
The corner of her eye[00:02:07]
So I ran outside[00:02:08]
But all night all I could think about was[00:02:10]
Karen by night[00:02:12]
The next morning I'm late as usual[00:02:23]
Karen's there fresh as a daisy[00:02:26]
She says with a smile[00:02:29]
You look like hell[00:02:31]
And where were you last night[00:02:33]
Karen by night[00:02:38]
Imagine she must lead a very dull life[00:02:41]
With just a cat or a book by her side[00:02:44]
We know her by day but we don't know[00:02:48]
Karen by night[00:02:52]
The leather comes out under the moonlight[00:02:55]
Takes off her Chanel and hops on her bike[00:02:58]
Looking like Marlon Brando[00:03:02]
Looking like young Marlon Brando[00:03:06]
Wish I could be more like[00:03:09]
Karen by night[00:03:12]
Looking like young Marlon Brando[00:03:20]
Not like old fat Marlon Brando in Apocalypse now[00:03:23]
Karen by night[00:03:33]
Karen by night[00:03:36]
