FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE LYRICS - Comedienne

"Comedienne"



In for the weekend

Out for the night

She gets caught in the curtain

And lost in the lights

But she's wearing a turban

And feeling alright

And she's hoping to God

That there coming tonight



There's a man in the corner

Sipping a drink

He says I seen them all and

Sister you stink

And the girls from the office

Try to be nice

But they're loud and they're dumb

And they bicker and fight



She knows she knows

There are gonna be times

When no one goes

For her funniest lines

Comedienne

Please make up your mind

Are you laughing or crying

Are you killing or dying tonight



Back at the bar

She's been licking her wounds

He says give up the vision

Performing in rooms

If you work on your timing

And drop me a line

Baby one of these Mondays

Your gonna be mine



She knows she knows

There are gonna be times

When no one goes

For her funniest lines

Comedienne

Please make up your mind

Are you laughing or crying

Are you killing or dying tonight



[break]



She knows she knows

There are gonna be times

When no one goes

For her funniest lines

Comedienne

Please make up your mind

Are you laughing or crying

Are you killing or dying tonight



She knows, she knows

She knows, she knows

She knows, she knows

She knows, she knows

She knows, she knows
