[00:13.77] I've got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi
[00:16.29] Guess what? I'm stirring it with a monkey's paw
[00:25.44] Since I saw you coming out of my barber's shop
[00:31.71] In that skimpy little halter top
[00:36.84] Did you light the candles? Did you put on 'Kind of Blue'?
[00:40.50] Did you use that Ivy League voodoo on him, too?
[00:49.14] He thinks he'll be alright but he doesn't know for sure
[00:52.92] Like every other unindicted co conspirator
[01:01.29] Mata Hari had a house in France
[01:07.44] Where she worked on all her secret plans
[01:13.14] Men were falling for her sight unseen
[01:17.28] She was a genius
[01:30.09] There's a face in every window of the Songwriters' Neighborhood
[01:36.87] Everybody's your best friend when you're doing well, I mean good
[01:41.58] The poet who lived next door when you were young and poor
[01:48.30] Grew up to be a backstabbing entrepreneur
[01:55.56] Albert Einstein was a ladies' man
[02:01.62] While he was working on his universal plan
[02:07.26] He was making out like Charlie Sheen
[02:11.85] He was a genius
[02:19.59] When you dropped me and you staked your claim
[02:22.14] On a V.I.P. who could make your name
[02:32.58] You latched on to him and I became
[02:34.92] Minor inconvenience
[02:43.74] Your protégé don't care about art
[02:49.44] I'm the one, who always told you, you were smart
[02:55.23] You broke my heart into smithereens
[02:59.73] And that took genius
[03:38.37] You and the barber make a handsome pair
[03:40.05] Guess what? I never liked the way he cut your hair
[03:49.83] I didn't like the way he turned your head
[03:54.09] But there's nothing I can do or say I haven't done or said
[04:01.59] Everybody needs a place to stand
[04:07.65] And a method for their schemes and scams
[04:13.29] If I could only get my record clean
[04:17.70] I'd be a genius
[00:13.77] I' ve got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi
[00:16.29] Guess what? I' m stirring it with a monkey' s paw
[00:25.44] Since I saw you coming out of my barber' s shop
