Rita Hayworth - Zip Lyrics

Lyrics Zip - Rita Hayworth



In Paris I headlined the follies
I was doll of all the dollies
Admired by the great Stradinsky
But my greatest achievement, in the high of my career
Was the time I starred for... Minsky
You're looking at a former stripper
But before I unzip ONE zipper
I want you to know that I was quite the artist
But... of the intelectual kind
What was I thinking while I worked in my desk?
While I worked this thoughts kept crossing my mind
REFRAIN 1
Zip! Walter Lippman wasn't brilliant today
Zip! Will the giants ever take it away?
Zip! I was reading Schopenhauer last night
Zip! and I think that Schopenhauer was right.
I don't want to see Zarina
I don't want to meet Cobina
Zip! I'm an intellectual
I don't like a deep contralto
Or a man whose voice is alto
Zip! I'm an heterosexual.
Zip! I took intellect to master my art
Zip! Who the hell is Margie Hart
REFRAIN 2
Zip! I consider Dali's paintings passé
Zip! Can they make the Metropolitan pay?
Zip! English people don't say clerk, they say clark
Zip! Anybody who says clark is a jark!
I have read the great Kabala
And I simply worship Allah
Zip! I am suck a mystic.
I don't care for Whistler's Mother
Charlie's Aunt and Shuber's brother
Zip! I'm misogynists
Zip! My intelligence is guiding my hand
Zip! who the hell is Sally Rand?
