What a Waste lyrics

Engineer

Check it out, uh!

Go check it out!

Hey boy, you wanna try my girl?

Try my girl, uh?

Doormen

Girls! I got girls!

Gorgeous girls!

Very nice!

Girls! I got girls!

Gorgeous girls!

Very nice!

I'm glad my wife's not here with me!

Engineer

What a waste

To pay for my keep

I'm rounding up sheep

To fleece here in Bangkok

I'm disgraced

I can't get ahead

There's nothing as dead

As peace here in Bangkok

Come on, guys, check my girls out!

Ten cents an hour and they'll stand all day

I could sell Kim for ten times my pay

If you're looking for fun, original sin

If you want to put out

Then you gotta come in

Doorman

Girls! I got girls!

Gorgeous girls! Very nice!

Engineer

Gee, isn't Bangkok really neat?

The things they're selling on the street

Fresh dog, if that's what you'd enjoy

A girl, or if you want a boy

Doorman

Girls! I got girls!

Girls! Worth the price!

The Engineer & Doormen

Hey, come to me

First drink is free

Engineer

Don't be a lump, you can hump

For a small extra fee

Hump, humpy, humpy, batteries included, ha ha...

I'm depressed

For hustling amours

To Japanese tours

Is no treat in Bangkok

Ah, gimme a break, guys!

I'm the best

Where's a marine

With fistfulls of green?

I'll cheat him in Bangkok

Ten cents an hour...

Evening, Boss!

Screw the Siamese

Hey, come here, come here, come here...

Look how they're ripping off refugees

If you're looking for fun

Original sin

If you want to put out

Then you gotta come in

Doormen & Engineer

Hey boys, don't stand around like wimps

Watch out, those guys, they're really pimps

You want some thrills, I'll guarantee some

Tonight, a twosome or a threesome

Doormen

Girls! I got girls!

Girls! Half the price!

Hey, come to me!

Look what you'll see!

Engineer

Hey, that's a joke, mine blow smoke

For a small extra fee

Engineer

Hey, Joe, try taking a little excursion

You'll all feel good from a little perversion

Massage requiring total immersion

Some strange positions they say are Persian

Drinks are on me

First girl is free

What can I say? You get me

For a small extra fee!
