Lyrics:
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond, I want a girl who knows what’s best, I want a girl with shoes that cut and eyes that burn like cigarettes, I want a girl with the right allocations who is fast and thorough and sharp as a tac, she’s playing with her jewelry she’s putting up her hair, she’s touring the facility and picking up slack.  I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket. I want a girl who gets up early (gets up early!), I want a girl who stays up late (stays up late!), I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity who uses the machete to cut through red tape, with finger nails that shine like justice, and a voice that is dark like tinted glass, she is fast thorough and sharp as a tac, she is touring the facility and picking up slack, I want a girl with a short skirt and a long, long jacket. (trumpet solo) I want a girl with a smooth liquidation (smooth liquidation), I want a girl with good dividends (good dividends!), at city bank (not sure bout that city hank) we will meet accidentally we’ll start to talk when she borrows my pen, she wants a car with a cup holder arm rest, she wants a car that will get her there, she’s changing her name from kittie to Karen, she’s trading her MG for a white Chrysler Mclaren (not sure with mclaren), I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket. (nanananananananana ending)
