My Baby Loves a Bunch of Authors
Intro : E
Well you should sEee my story reading bAaby
You should hBear the things that she sEays
She says &Equot;Hon, drop dead, I'd ratAher go to bed
With GBabriel Garcia MarqEuez".
Cuddle Up with William S. Burroughs
Leave on the light for Bel Hooks
I been flirtin' with Pierre Burton
'Cause He's so smart in his books.
Chorus:
AI like to go out dEancin', My Ababy loves a bunch of authorsE
AMy hearts so broke &amEp; bleedin' Baby'Bs just sittin there, B B
Doin' some readin'.E
So I started watchin some TV,
Played my new CD player too.
She said, "Turn it off or I'll call the cops
And I'll throw the book at you"
All this arguing made me get dizzy,
Called my doctor to come have a look.
I said "Doctor hurry!", He said "Don't worry,
I'll be over when I've finished my book"
Chorus:
I like to go out dancin', My baby loves a bunch of authors
We've been livin in hovels, spendin all our money on
Brand new novels.
So I got myself on a streetcar
And it drove right into someone
You know the driver said, "I was looking straight ahead",
But he was readin the Toronto Sun.
So my honey & me go to a counsellor,
To help figure out what we need.
She said, "We'll get you love growing, but before we get going,
Here's some books I'd like you to read"
Chorus:
I like to go out dancin', My baby loves a bunch of authors
Lately we've had some friction, 'Cause my baby's hooked on
Short works of fiction.
So we split & went to a party,
Some friends my girl said she knew.
But what a sight, 'cause it's authors night
And the place looks like a whos who.
Now I'm pEoundin' the ouzo - With MaArio Puzo
WBho's a funny fella? - WE. P. Kinsella.
EWho brought the cat? - would MAargaret Atwood?
BWho needs a shave? - He's REobertson Davies.
EOndaatje started a fAoodfight,
Salmon mBouse all over the sEcene.
ESpilt some dressing on DAoris Lessing,
These wrBiter types are a scEream.
Chorus:
AI like to go out dEancin', My Ababy loves a bunch of authorsE
AWe'll be together for aEges, BEatin' & sleepin' &
B B B B n/C
Eatin' & sleepin' &, Eatink und sleepink und
Turning Pages......Yeah! E7
