I'm Tired

Sunday, January 23, 2011

performed in: "Blazing Saddles" (1974)
song by: Mel Brooks



Here I stand, the goddess of Desire,
set men on fire,
I have this power,
morning noon and night it's drink and dancing,


some quick romancing,
and then a quick shower,


stage door johnnies always surround me,
they always hound me,
with one request,
who can satisfy their lustful habits,
I'm not a rabbit!
I need some rest!


I'm tired,
sick and tired of love,
I've had my fill of love,
from below and above,
tired,
tired of being admired,
tired of love uninspired,
let's face it,
I'm tired!


I've been with 1000's of men,
again and again,
they promise the moon,
they always coming and going,
going and coming,
and always too soon!
Right girls?


I'm tired,
tired of playing the game,
ain't it a crying shame?
I'm so tired,
God dammit I'm tired!


Hello cowboy, what's your name?
Tex 'mam
Tex 'mam ? Tell me Tex'mam, are you in show business?
No
We'll then why don't you get your freaking feet off here
La ha
Ah ha he hu...
Hello handsome, is that a 10 gallon hat? Or are you just enjoying the show?
Ah ha ah...
Oh miss lilly, oh my laby, oh my pussy cat, put it there baby, put it... ohhhhh


I'm tired,
tired of playing the game,
ain't it a crying shame,
I'm so tired


[soldiers:]
she's tired
-she's tired
sick and tired of love
-give her a break
she's had her fill of love


-she's not a snake
from below and above
-can't you see she's sick?


tired
-she's bushed
tired of being admired
-let her alone
tired of love uninspired


-get off the phone
she's tired
-don't you know she's pooped?



I've been with 1000's of men,
again and again,
they sing the same toon,
the start with Byron and Shelly,
and jump on your belly,
and bust your ballon!


aye!
tired,
tired of playing the game,
ain't it a freakin shame,
I'm so...
let's face it,
everything below the waste is kapput!

    I hadn't watched that movie in years and had forgotten the song until I started reading the lyrics. Then I could hear Madeline Kahn singing it. Thanks for the memory and the adorable pics!

    Wonderful! Can still hear the throaty and hammily-accented rendition from the flick, by the incomparable comedienne -- Madeleine Kahn, I think?

These illustrations too cool -- houseful of pets here agrees, as they collapse in heaps of agreement.
