Short Skirt, Long Jacket
Lyrics 
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows what's best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes

I want a girl who knows what's best
We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen
(Stays up late)
I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket
I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket
She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler Le Baron
Who uses a machete to cut her red tape
She wants a car that will get her there
With fingernails that shine like justice
At City Bank we will meet accidentally
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And a voice that is dark like tainted glass
She is fast, thorough and sharp as a tack
She wants a car with a cupholder armrest
I want a girl with the right allocations
She's touring the facilities and picking up the slack
(Good dividends)
She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
(Smooth liquidation)
Who's fast and thorough and sharp as a tack

I want a girl with a short skirt and a long, long jacket
(Meet accidentally)
I want a girl with a smooth liquidation
She's playing with her jewelry, she's putting up her hair
I want a girl with the good dividends

(Gets up early)
I want a girl who stays up late
She's touring the facilities and picking up the slack
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
