The Nun's Litany (Alternate Vocal Version) - The Magnetic Fields
I want to be a Playboys bunny
Id do whatever they asked me to
Id meet people with lots of money
And they would love me like I loved you
I want to be a topless waitress
I want my mother to shed one tear
Id throw away this old sedate dress
Slip into something a tad more sheer
I want to be an artists model
An Odalisque Au Naturel
I should be good at spin the bottle
While I've still got something left to sell
I want to be a cobra dancer
With little Willie between my thighs
I may not find a cure for cancer
But Ill meet plenty of single guys
I want to be a brothel worker
I've always been treated like one
If I could be a back street lurker
Id make more money and have more fun
I want to be a dominatrix
Which isn't like me but I can dream
Learn SM and all those gay tricks
And men will pay me to make them scream
I want to be a porno starlet
For that Ill wait 'til Mamas dead
Ill see my name in lights of scarlet
And get to spend every day in bed
I want to be a tattooed lady
Dedicated as I am to art
Character's bold complex and shady
Will write my memoirs across my heart
