Vicki Waiting lyrics

[Spoken Intro: Jack Nicholson]
I'm of the mind to make some mookie
Phonebook

[Verse 1]
The phone rings, it's Vicki calling
She wants me to come to the crib
You see, conversation's better than being lonely
So I try my best to ad lib
I told the joke about the woman
Who asked her lover "Why is your organ so small?"
He replied "I didn't know I was playing in a cathedral"
Vicki didn't laugh at all

[Chorus]
This is where she wants to be
I am what she wants to see
I never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waiting
(All right)

[Verse 2]
All is well in Gotham City
The sound of terror is all you hear
Sometime, a pistol takes the place of her body
Sometimes, her body's here
But you see when crime is your only love
All that matter is the present, the here and now
People, people, whatever floats this joker's boat
Is whatever this joker will bang
[Chorus]
This is where she wants to be
I am what she wants to see
Never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waiting
(Oh, dear)

[Verse 3]
Talk of children still frightens me
Is my character enough to be
One that deserves a copy made?
This I, one day, I hope to see
Until then, she's held at bay
By my animal-like persistence
Or maybe she's just too proud to say
That fate brought us together
And this is where she wants to stay

[Chorus]
This is where she wants to be
I, I am what she wants to see
Never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waiting

[Chorus]
This is where she wants to be
I, I am what she wants to see
Never known
Never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waiting
[Chorus]
(All is well in Gotham town)
This is where she wants to be
I am what she wants to see
Never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki waiting

[Outro]
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki waiting
This is where she wants to be
