We’ve been down for many days, you know the drill
Make an appointment the guys come in, we pay the bill
The machine may run or it may not
The universe may send good luck
The belt is torn again — who can I call?

How come you didn’t tell me sooner?
How come you let the problem linger?
Finally someone came who knew the trick
We’ll get a long without these useless Stripper Fingers

She’s iridescent when she’s running fine
She’s quite proficient, she can be quite sublime
But my job tickets begin to mount when she keeps on going down
The stress is gonna do me in this time

How come you didn’t tell me sooner?
How come you let the problem linger?
Rip out this stripper fingers!
We’ll get a long without these useless Stripper Fingers

She’s iridescent when she’s running fine
She’s quite proficient, she can be quite sublime
But my job tickets begin to mount when she keeps on going down
The stress is gonna do me in this time

Whitney, can you bail me out again?
I hate to bother you but my wits are at an end
Just tell me when!

I wonder if this really is the trick
I better stop, I’ll be the jinx of it
Have you seen the price of gas?
Who can say how long it lasts?
Load up the cart with everything that fits…
Until it quits.

Rip out this stripper fingers!
We’ll get a long without these useless Stripper Fingers

These useless Stripper Fingers
Be damned
Be damned…

Stripper fingers be damned!
