lyrics

Just a smalltown girl
in a world not your own.
Should I call you Nomi
or is it Ms. Malone?
You want to make it as a dancer
but they say you’ve got a lot to learn.
But I’ve seen you on the dance floor
and I know you’ve got talent to burn.
Wipe the makeup off your face.
You’re beautiful to me and
you don’t need the Versace.
When I saw you at the strip club, I knew:
Nomi, you’re a star.
Oh to be Zack Carey
I’d do anything for you.
I’d even lend you my floaties
so you won’t nearly drown in the pool.
I like the way you move.
You give it all you’ve got
and then for no reason you throw up
in the parking lot.
I’ll be there, to hold your hair.
I’ll be there.
Nobody wants to fuck a Penny.
They want to fuck a Hope or a Heather.
I don’t want just any old girl.
I want Nomi Malone always and forever.
Could have hired anybody,
but they chose you as the understudy.
When I saw you at the boat show I knew:
Nomi, you’re a star.
Nomi, you’re a star.
Nomi, you’re a star.
Nomi, you’re a star.
Doggie Chow.
