I want to be a stripper

some girls were born to dance

I'd glissade and tour jete

pirouette and releve

please mister give me a chance



I want to be a stripper

I'd be beautiful and grand

Overhearing people say

hey that girl could

go all the way

please mister let me dance



I know that I could do it

I knew that I'd be swell

a cheering crowd

would yell for more

and I'd say no

not another encore

smile and bid a fond farewell



a tra la la tra la la
