Rita Hayworth - Zip (Version 1) lyrics

Artist: Rita Hayworth

album: The Complete Rita Hayworth Songbook


In Paris I headlined the follies
I was doll of all the dollies
Admired by the great Stradinsky
But my greatest achievement
In the high of my career
Was the time I starred for... Minsky
You're looking at a former stripper
But before I unzip ONE zipper
I want you to know that I was quite the artist
But... of the intelectual kind
What was I thinking while I worked in my desk?
While I worked this thoughts kept crossing my mind
In Paris I headlined
The Follies Billed as doll of all the dollies
Admired by the great Stravinsky
But my greatest achievement
At the height of my career
Was the time I starred for Minsky
You're looking at a former stripper
But before I unzip one zipper
I want it known that I was quite the artiste but uh
The intellectual kind
What was I thinking while I worked
You might ask
While I worked these thoughts kept crossing my mind
Zip!
Walter Lippman wasn't brilliant today
Zip!
Will the Giants ever take it away?
Zip
I was reading Schopenhauer last night
Zip!
And I think that Schopenhauer was right
Sigmund Freud has often stated
Dreams and drives are all related
Zip!
I'm a firm believer
Dorothy Dix's daily column
Tells that love is dear and solemn
Zip!
I can take or leave her
Zip!
It took intellect to master my art
Zip!
Every movement from the heart
Zip!
I consider Dali's painting passé Zip
Will they make the Metropolitan pay
Zip!
Marilyn Monroe looks just dandy in mink
Zip!
She not only acts
I hear she can think
I have read the works of Plato translated most of Cato
Zip!
I am such a scholar
I don't care for Whistler's mother
Charlie's aunt or Schubert's brother
Zip!
Had to make a dollar
Zip!
You have asked me what I think while I work
Zip!
I've an intellectual quirk
And my thoughts may skip whenever so inclined
Oh Zip... Zip
Zip!
I'm a broad with a broad broad mind!
