lyrics

Ladies who lunch, boycott brunch
Ladies who lunch, boycott brunch

Disinherit the meek
Arm the strong
Manhandle the panhandler
Give his fortunes to the gambler

And here I thought I was doing a favor
To the face least favored by nature
Here I thought I was doing a favor
To the face least favored by nature

Wrap the rock, skin the sock
Chip off the old chopping block
Save a sinner, stab a saint
The rewards in heaven will surely be great

Could it be that chocolate's your flavor?
I ask the stranger
Ladies who lunch, boycott brunch
Ladies who lunch, boycott brunch

Rat out the mole, sink in the hole
And go skipping off the plank
Kiss the hand you want to bite
And God will break it later
God will break it later

Save a sinner, stab a saint
The rewards in heaven will surely be great
Guess after all I've got the shine
The pink lady that you saw in my kitchen
She was laughing at your reflection!

In a trap, in a snare
Wrap the rock, skin the sock
Chip off the old chopping block

Here I thought I was doing a favor
To the face least favored by nature
Here I thought I was doing a favor
To the face least favored by nature
