《Chain Store Daisy》歌词

[00:00:00] Chain Store Daisy - Harold Rome

[00:00:04] When I was young I studied hard and thirsted after knowledge

[00:00:08] And often burned the midnight oil so I could get to college

[00:00:11] They told me my fine education

[00:00:15] Would help improve my situation

[00:00:20] So then I crammed and crammed til I was almost in a coma

[00:00:23] And CC's and exams til I got me a diploma

[00:00:27] Aha they said now comes admission

[00:00:31] Into a very high position

[00:00:35] Out I went and looked around

[00:00:37] And Macy's was the place I found

[00:00:40] I filled my blanks and application

[00:00:42] And went for my examination

[00:00:45] They took my weight and took my height

[00:00:47] And tapped my chest and tested my sight

[00:00:49] Examined my head took prints of my toes

[00:00:52] Looked at my teeth and up my nose

[00:00:56] Examined my throat and measured my hips

[00:00:58] And even took prints of my fingertips

[00:01:00] Made me say ah and told me to grunt

[00:01:04] Examined my back examined my front

[00:01:07] Then they tested my IQ

[00:01:10] And asked what I'd like to do

[00:01:13] And when that exam was through

[00:01:17] What there was to know Macy's knew

[00:01:22] So I got the job

[00:01:25] Life is a bitter cup of tea

[00:01:30] Now I'm just Salesgirl 73

[00:01:34] I used to be on the daisy chain

[00:01:38] Now I'm a chain store daisy

[00:01:43] Once they give me the honor seat

[00:01:47] Now I stand up with pains in my feet

[00:01:51] I used to be on the daisy chain

[00:01:56] Now shoppers drive me crazy

[00:02:00] I sell smart but thrifty

[00:02:02] Corsets at $3.50

[00:02:05] Better grades $4.69

[00:02:08] I sell bras and gerters for more than murderers

[00:02:13] To holding their plump behind this counter

[00:02:17] Once I wrote poems put people in tears

[00:02:22] Now I write checks for lady brassieres

[00:02:26] I used to be on the daisy chain

[00:02:30] Now I'm a chain store daisy

[00:02:35] Oh yes madame

[00:02:37] Oh no madame

[00:02:40] I guess madame

[00:02:41] That so madame

[00:02:44] Of course madame

[00:02:45] That's the pretty best

[00:02:48] Exactly the kind is worn by Maywest

[00:02:52] Pretty you madame

[00:02:54] We do madame

[00:02:56] That's ture madame

[00:02:58] In do madame

[00:03:00] Oh that one is $19.74

[00:03:04] It ought to be expensive it's the largest in the store

[00:03:08] Once I had a yearning for all higher learning

[00:03:13] And studied to I make the grade

[00:03:16] I pursue my knowledge and finish college

[00:03:21] Well look at the kind of grade I made

[00:03:25] I'm selling things to fit the figger

[00:03:30] Make the big things small and the small things bigger

[00:03:33] I used to be on the daisy chain

[00:03:38] Now I'm a chain store daisy
