The Brothel in Rosenstrasse
( Moorcock - Pavli )
Frau Schmetterling says
That all her girls are ladies
She won't hand out keys
To anyone who's shady
It's all done with taste
You must not seem
A waster or a scoundrel
And she is kind and she is warm
And believe in good form
So don't be nasty
Brothel in Rosenstrasse, all our girl are keen and game
Brothel in Rosenstrasse, you don't have to give your name
Please don't speak of dispair
Or anything that's seedy
Don't admit you're cycical and greedy
Your manner is refined
Your role clearly designed
And so is the lady's
The things you do aren't wicked or rude
Because you need them
Brothel in Rosenstrasse, all our girl are keen to please
Brothel in Rosenstrasse, at reasonable fees.
