My Husband's Pied-a-terre Lyrics - Love At The Bottom Of The Sea - The Magnetic Fields

I know of a groovy place 

Where every girl of every race, 

Age, and bra size, and IQ 

Goes when she feels broke or blue 

It's a place more women stay 

Than the YWCA 

Go there once, you get the key 

So every girl's been there but me 

Where's a minx get minks to wear 

Why, my husband's pied--terre 

In two drinks, you think she'll care 

That's my husband's pied--terre 

Every alley cat in town 

Knows my husband's flat in town 

Better get your derriere 

To my husband's pied-a-terre 

Love is in the very air 

Of my husband's pied--terre 

I understand the latest fad 

Is my husband's bachelor pad 

All the classes mingle there 

At my husband's pied--terre 

There is not one single chair 

In my husband's pied--terre 

When I find this loony bin 

I am going to do him in
