You know, the women's movement has achieved [A] a great many good things, but one change that I'm not particularly pleased [E] about myself is that we can no longer refer to [Em] tropical [A] storms by women's names.
That's a real drag, because, [E] I mean, the only way to refer to them is Turner.
I mean, here she is, [A] man, Hurricane [G] Tina!
Woo!
[N]
That's a good deal.
I mean, where's your, uh, how come there's not a
Tina, [Bb] you're the first lady of rock.
I mean, you're practically a legend in your own time.
You can't come out here in a business [B] suit, stand there, looking at me like I'm crazy!
I mean, [Bb] look!
Sorry, John.
[N] I thought this would be a more fitting attire.
It's such a suspicious occasion, I thought that I would change [Bb] my image.
Well, look, couldn't you just change it back for me tonight?
I mean, uh
Well, all right, but just for one reason.
B-because you like me?
Well, then, for two reasons.
