The Transaction
(the ENGINEER approaches JOHN)
ENGINEER hey monsieur John, how'd you like to get rich go home in style. . .?
JOHN yeah okay, what's the pitch?
ENGINEER an U.S. visa to help me out lend me a bit of your embassy clout
JOHN there isn't a chance pal, you're too well known look, what I want is that girl in the dress
ENGINEER you have a good eye her name is Kim, she's my new princess you give her a try?
JOHN it's my friend Chris who's the one feeling down
MARINE I ordered a beer!
ENGINEER she'll get him up, it's her first night in town but I have to warn you she don't come cheap it's got to be twenty for my princess
JOHN twenty dollars??
ENGINEER she's sort of a virgin, well more or less for twenty more you get a room and key for fifty bucks, she's got the whole night free
MARINES no one gives us a buzz like the Engineer does
(JOHN approaches CHRIS with Kim)
JOHN Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com stop drooling white boy you're losing your cool you like this jail bait
CHRIS John, open your eyes this is the end of the line this whole rotten scene
this little girl, we could be in the sack for what it costs me to buy a big mac John, it's time to go back - you know what I mean
JOHN I'm starting to cry pal you're so out of touch the trouble with you is you think too much ooh ol' Dr. John knows what you need alright I've bought you a present she yours all night
MARINES no one gives you a hit like the Engineer's shit!!
(Across the room, the ENGINEER speaks to KIM.)
ENGINEER see little princess, I was right you got the biggest score tonight you caught that sergeant by the nose you stay with him until he goes call him Chris he'll like that
KIM that marine wants his beer
ENGINEER you said you needed a job you said you'd turn a trick you'd better prove it, and quick!
(he leads KIM to CHRIS)
ENGINEER voila!
