《Mary Provost》歌词

[00:00:01] Marie Provost did not look her best

[00:00:03] The day the cops broke into her lonely nest

[00:00:07] From the cheap hotels up on Hollywood West

[00:00:10] July 29

[00:00:12] She'd been lying there for two or three weeks

[00:00:15] The neighbours said they'd never heard a squeak

[00:00:18] But hungry eyes that cannot speak

[00:00:20] Said even dogs have got to eat

[00:00:23] She was a winner that became a dog's dinner

[00:00:28] She never meant that much to me

[00:00:30] Whoah poor Marie

[00:00:35] Marie Provost was a movie queen

[00:00:37] Mysterious angel of the silent screen

[00:00:40] And from the film into a young man's dream

[00:00:42] When Marie crossed that silent screen

[00:00:45] She came out west from old New York

[00:00:48] But when the talkies came she just couldn't cope

[00:00:51] Her public said "Marie take a walk

[00:00:53] All the way back to New York"

[00:00:55] She was a winner that became a dog's dinner

[00:01:00] She never meant that much to me

[00:01:02] Now I see poor Marie

[00:01:18] Those Quaalude bombs didn't help her sleep

[00:01:20] As the nights grew long the days grew bleak

[00:01:23] It's all downhill when you've passed your peak

[00:01:25] Marie got ready for that last big sleep

[00:01:28] The cops broke in and they looked all around

[00:01:31] Throwing up everywhere at what they found

[00:01:34] The handywork of the little dachshunds

[00:01:37] The hungry little dachshunds

[00:01:38] She was a winner that became a dog's dinner

[00:01:43] She never meant that much to me

[00:01:45] Now I see poor Marie

[00:01:49] Poor Marie

[00:01:52] Poor Marie

[00:01:54] Poor poor Marie

[00:01:57] Poor poor Marie
