Lovely Ladies

I smell women
Smell 'em in the air
Think I'll drop my anchor
In that harbor over there.

Lovely ladies
Smell 'em through the smoke
Seven days at sea
Can make you hungry for a poke.

Even stokers need a little stoke!

Lovely ladies
Waiting for a bite
Waiting for the customers
Who only come at night
Lovely ladies
Ready for the call
Standing up or lying down
Or any way at all
Bargain prices up against the wall.

What pretty hair
What pretty locks you got there
What luck you got. It's worth a centime, my dear
I'll take the lot.

Don't touch me! Leave me alone!

Let's make a price
I'll give you all of ten francs
Just think of that!

It pays a debt.

Just think of that.

What can I do? It pays a debt
Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!

Lovely ladies
Waiting in the dark
Ready for a thick one
Or a quick one in the park.

Long time short time
Any time, my dear
Cost a little extra if you want to take all year!

Quick and cheap is underneath the pier!

Come over here
It's 20 francs for a tooth.

Come here my dear
I'll pay you well for your youth.

Just the back ones.

The pain won't last
You'll still be able to bite.

I do it fast
I know my business all right
It's worth a go.

You'll pay me first
What I am due.

You'll get twice
If I take two!

Give me the dirt, who's that bit over there
A bit of skirt. She's the one sold her hair
She's got a kid. Sends her all that she can.

I might have known
There is always some man
Lovely lady, come along and join us!
Lovely lady!

Come on dearie, why all the fuss
You're no grander than the rest of us
Life has dropped you at the bottom of the heap
Join your sisters.

Make money in your sleep.

That's right dearie, show him what you've got!
That's right dearie, let him have the lot.

Old men, young men, take 'em as they come
Harbor rats and alley cats and every kind of scum
Poor men, rich men, leaders of the land
See them with their trousers off they're never quite as grand
All it takes is money in your hand!

Lovely ladies
Going for a song
Got a lot of callers
But they never stay for long.

Come on, Captain
you can wear your shoes
Don't it make a change
To have a girl who can't refuse
Easy money
Lying on a bed
Just as well they never see
The hate that's in your head
Don't they know they're making love
To one already dead!
