<br><br>The forty dollar bill didn't matter no more<br>When her sister got nekkid an' laid on the floor<br>She said dinah-moe might win the bet<br>But she could use a little (ow!) if I wasn't done yet<br><br>I told her...<br>Just because the sun<br>Want a place in the sky<br>No reason to assume<br>I wouldn't give her a try<br><br>So I pulled on her hair<br>Got her legs in the air<br>An' asked her if she had any cooties in there<br><br>(whaddya mean cooties! no cooties on me!)<br><br>She was buns-up kneelin'<br>Buns up!<br>I was wheelin' an' dealin'<br>Wheelin' an' dealin' an ooooh!<br>She surrender to the feelin'<br>She sweetly surrendered<br>An' she started in to squealin'<br><br>Dinah-moe watched from the edge of the bed<br>With her lips just twitchin' an' her face gone red<br>Some drool rollin' down<br>From the edge of her chin<br>While she spied the condition<br>Her sister was in<br>She quivered 'n quaked<br>An' clutched at herself<br>Her sister made a joke<br>About her mental health<br>Until dinah-moe finally<br>Did give in<br>But I told her<br>All she really needed<br>Was some discipline...<br><br>I said:<br><br>Kiss my aura...dora...<br>That's right!<br>You know why?
