Necktie Lyrics

There was a naked man standing in an alley And he weren't wearing no clothes A naked man was standing in an alley And he wasn't wearing no clothes He said, "All that I need, I do believe, Is a pair of black dress shoes" Black dress shoes (That's all a naked man really needs) There was a red light lady on a corner She looked like the richest woman in the world Oh, a red light lady was standing on a corner And she was looking like the richest woman in the world (Here's why) She had a fine fur coat upon her back And a string of cultured pearls Cultured pearls (They's the kind that sip lots of tea and they read lots of poetry Got culture in 'em) There was a man found hanging in a jail cell And they said it was suicide A man was found hanging in a jail cell And they told me it was suicide Now you can blame the social system But I still say it was his necktie Necktie, necktie Wowwww, my, my, wooooo, necktie Now, now, now when I die won't you bury me In a pair of black dress shoes Oh, put a fine fur coat upon my back Put a string of cultured pearls too St Peter be so proud to have a woman like me Come and see him when I die And, you know, that they won't keep me out of those Pearly Gates 'Cause I'll be sure to wear my necktie Necktie, necktie Wowwww, my, my, my, my, wooooo, necktie
