Quiche Lorraine (Live)
The B-52's · Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation [1998]
This next selection is about the dog
who left without even leaving a note.
The skies are charcoal grey
It's a dreary downtown day
But. at the end of my 30 foot leash
Is my little friend Quiche
Quiche La Poodle! is her name
And having a good time on a crummy day is our game.
Quiche. Quiche Lorraine
-Quiche Quiche Lorraine
Quiche Quiche Lorraine- (girls)
Everyday I take her out. Yeah!
She runs around, she shouts out and barks. Yeah!
Cause she's a good doggie
She's a sweet, sweet, sweeeeet puppy! Arf Arf
And I know she'll stick by me, Yeah!
Arf Arf
Oh no! Here comes a Great Dane
Drivin' down the lane
Quiche, Quiche, Quiche come back here
Don't leave me
I'll go insane.
I'll go insane.
How do you like that?
Has anybody seen a dog dyed dark green
'bout two inches tall, with a strawberry blond paw;
Sunglasses and a bonnet
and designer jeans with appliques on it?
The dog that brought me so much joy!
Left me wallowing in pain!
Quiche Lorraine
I'll show her!
Do you see the key in my hand?
I'm gonna throw it in the lake
Yeah, you've been so rotten to me,
You take the cake.
I'm just gonna lock the door to your kennel
And just you try and come back to me
Yeah, you'll see.
Quiche Quiche Lorraine ....you mangy mutt.
Quiche Quiche Lorraine ....I'm talking about Quiche!
Quiche Quiche Lorraine ....Quiche Lorraine!
who left without even leaving a note.
