The Lyrics
Oh, the dames people pay, now
All the homely hookers, hey now
Fat and ugly, old and gray, now
None are pretty, young, and lean
Don't believe they're takin' showers,
Could use brillo pad scours
Oughta' cover them with flowers
Reekin' bad like a nasty latrine..
La-da da da da da da da
La-da da da da da da de
Talkin' 'bout misery..
Oh, the dames people pay
Smells could make a gorilla cry
Kill a hawk, make a buzzard fly
Fracture nostrils of some poor john guy
Send him back to his old flame..
Make Summer's Eve give up
Like a foul runneth over cup
Bad aroma of a skunky pup
Cabbage flatulence with aim...
Oh, the dames people pay, now
Don't be thinkin' they're okay, now
They need giant cans of spray, now
It's an odor colored...green !
Hookers walkin' up to ya'
Propositioning to do ya'
Hold your nose, but it goes thru ya
It's just awful, Oh Lord !
Call the men who can exterminate
Bring some bottled Scope, fumigate
Try to find a whore in hell to date
You would be better scored...
(Repeat Chorus)
Look around and tell me what you see
Bad hookers hadn't oughta' be
God grant one with more pleasantry
This is worse than Viet Nam..
Do not give up all your sanity
For one fat as a manatee
Pass on all this sick humanity..
There ain't none worth a da da da da damn !
Oh, the dames people pay, now
All the homely hookers, hey now
Fat and ugly, old and gray, now
None are pretty, young, and lean
None are pretty, young, and lean
All the homely hookers, hey now
Fat and ugly, old and gray, now
None are pretty, young, and lean
Don't believe they're takin' showers,
Could use brillo pad scours
Oughta' cover them with flowers
Reekin' bad like a nasty latrine..
La-da da da da da da da
La-da da da da da da de
Talkin' 'bout misery..
Oh, the dames people pay
Smells could make a gorilla cry
Kill a hawk, make a buzzard fly
Fracture nostrils of some poor john guy
Send him back to his old flame..
Make Summer's Eve give up
Like a foul runneth over cup
Bad aroma of a skunky pup
Cabbage flatulence with aim...
Oh, the dames people pay, now
Don't be thinkin' they're okay, now
They need giant cans of spray, now
It's an odor colored...green !
Hookers walkin' up to ya'
Propositioning to do ya'
Hold your nose, but it goes thru ya
It's just awful, Oh Lord !
Call the men who can exterminate
Bring some bottled Scope, fumigate
Try to find a whore in hell to date
You would be better scored...
(Repeat Chorus)
Look around and tell me what you see
Bad hookers hadn't oughta' be
God grant one with more pleasantry

Do not give up all your sanity
For one fat as a manatee
Pass on all this sick humanity..
There ain't none worth a da da da da damn !
Oh, the dames people pay, now
All the homely hookers, hey now
Fat and ugly, old and gray, now
None are pretty, young, and lean
None are pretty, young, and lean

As soon as I saw the title switch and who wrote it, I knew this was going to be great...and it far exceeded my expectations!!!...Way to go 'Farce'!!!...555!!!!!
Sir, this is. . . well . . . it's bad, as well as sad . . . But these women serve a "purpose" . . . And CowboyDave did "value" his middleAged waitresses . . .
Used to work the night shift in a neighborhood where there were lots of hookers as you described. Never saw one get picked up. But the nights the police sent their decoys out, looking at least semi-human, the cops were nailing fools right and left.
Do you speak from experience in crafting this funny parody?
