Well, courtesans
shed no tears
when you leave them high and dry

They just go on,
They just go on
to the next guy

Cause courtesans
only want
compensation for their time
a few kind words
a few kind words
they need not rhyme
a sable coat, maybe a hat
Oh, I wish I could be like that

But courtesans
are not like me
They don't take love very hard
Their hearts are free
Their hearts are free
How avant-garde

if no one loves them
when they're old
they'll sit and count their chains of gold

You say you'll love them till you die
and they don't care if it's a lie
Cause courtesans
don't believe in anybody but themselves
and Santa Claus
and Santa Claus
and his twelve elves.
