Bored In Manhattan

There was a street walker Who was quite a talker She vacationed in a place called Manhattan But the people spoke no French or Latin When she spoke Monsieur and Oui Oui She was showed the restroom to pee, pee Greeting the door man with Mon Ami He thought she was giving him some for free When the word Eiffel Tower from her lips fell They grabbed her and put her in jail I fell a tower in New York aren’t words spoke Or you won’t be bored in Manhattan and that is no Joke
