Lyrics for Show Girl

I took a showgirl For my bride Thought my life Would be right, yeah Took her bowling Got her high Got myself a showgirl bride Took a job on the side In a health shop Keeps me well, now Got my mantra for life Got my karma And a showgirl bride All my life All her life All our life I married a showgirl That's for life I married a showgirl That's for life She can't work In the wintertime And I can't work anytime now Go to libraries all the while Looking for a notice Bide my time All my life All her life All our life I married a showgirl That's for life I married a showgirl That's for life I took a showgirl For my bride Sprinkled stardust On my wife Took her bowling Got her high Got myself a showgirl bride Got myself a showgirl bride Don't you recognize us? Don't you recognize us?
