Baby Doll

Laurie Anderson · Other Songs - Laurie Anderson

I don't know about your brain- but mine is really bossy

I come home from a day on the golf course and I find

all these messages scribbled on wrinkled up scraps

of paper and they say thing like:

On't you get a real job? or: you and what army?

or: get a horse. and then I hear this voice comin from

the back of my head uh huh (whoa-ho) yep!

it's my brain again and when my brain talks to me

Says: take me out to the ballgame take me out to the

park take me to the movies cause I love to sit in the

dark take me to tahiti cause I love to be hot and take

me out on the town tonight cause

Ow the new hot spot. he says: babydoll!

ooo oo oo babydoll ooo he says: babydoll!

I love it when you come when I call babydoll!

you don't have to talk I know it all babydoll! ooo oo oo babydoll

Ell I'm sitting around trying to write a letter I'm

wracking my brains trying to think of another word

for horse I ask my brain for some assistance.

and he says: huh...let's see...how about cow?

T to the ballgame take me out to the park take me to

the movies cause I love to sit in the dark take me
