... Deborah was a Catholic girl, she held out 'til the bitter end
Carla was a different type, she's the one who put it in
Mary was a black girl and I was afraid of a girl like that
Suzen painted pictures sitting down like a Buddha sat

[Chorus]
Mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

[Verse 2]
Reno was a nameless girl, a geographic memory
Cathy was a Jesus freak, she liked that kind of misery
Vicki had this special way of turning sex into a song
Kamala, who couldn't sing, kept the beat and kept it strong

[Chorus]
Mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

[Verse 3]
Zilla was an archetype, the voodoo queen, the queen of wrath
Joan thought men were second best to masturbating in the bath
Sherry was a feminist, she really had that gift of gab
Kathleen's point of view was this, take whatever you can grab
...
[Outro]
Eighty-eight lines about forty-four women

... and, fwiw, I have heard that song only on college radio stations.

Gee, after listening to the lyrics, I have to wonder ... why?

:)

Lyrics excerpt ...

...
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both

An older version of me, is she perverted like me?
Would she go down on you in a theatre?
Does she speak eloquently? And would she have your baby?
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until you died? 'Til you died
But you're still alive

[Chorus]
And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

[Verse 2]
You seem very well, things look peaceful
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?

I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
And are you thinkin' of me when you fuck her?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until you died? 'Til you died
But you're still alive
...
