Absolutely Isabel -

Rattlesnake, Oh Rattlesnake

What makes your teeth so white?

«I've been on the bottom all of my life

And I ain’t done nothing but bite

I ain’t done nothing but bite.»

Absolutely, Rattlesnake!

Positively Now!

I know all about those other young boys

You’ve poisoned with a smile

Josephine, Oh Josephine

What makes your eyes so bright?

«My husband won’t be coming home tonight

For you I’ll play a wife

For you I’ll play a wife.»

Absolutely, Josephine!

Positively Now!

I know all about those other young boys

You’ve educated with a smile

You’re gonna take me with you

Without compromise

And do anything you have to

To disappear

Into the arms of a lie

Pussycat, Oh Pussycat

What makes your fur so sleek?

«To common men I never do speak

You won’t find me in the street

You won’t find me in the street.»

Absolutely, Pussycat!

Positively Now!

I know all about those other young boys

You’ve hunted with a smile

Isabel, Oh Isabel

What makes your heart so hard?

«Been scratching gravel all my days

It’s a wonder I ain’t tired

It’s a wonder I ain’t tired.»

Absolutely, Isabel!

Positively Now!

I’m not like those other young boys

Who’ve stolen your smile

You’re cool water for my burning skin

Your dark gypsy eyes

I want to be your caravan

And disappear

Into a country mile
