[Bass riff, no drums] [handclaps count it in] [Verse 1] [voice: Bettie, dry and quick] I have counted every jar. I have labelled all the string. Katy hums to the geraniums. I would like to hear a thing. [Pre-Chorus] [brass swell, one bar] She said the moon is in the wrong place. The moon has never cared for that. I took my coat. I took her scarf. It's mine now. She can have my hat. [Chorus] [full disco groove] [voice: narrator, flat and deadpan] Katy, Kattie, what you did with Bettie? (she went out the side door) Katy, Kattie, did you even see? (there's a note on the till) Katy, Kattie, she has taken the scarf. (she is not coming back for the till) [Verse 2] [voice: Bettie, dry and quick] There is nothing wrong with herbs. There is nothing wrong with jars. But the floor out here is louder and it moves me more than stars. [Bridge] [strip to bass and kit] [voice: Bettie, dry and quick] Katy, your spells are sweet but I need a disco suit. Keep the crystal. Keep the shelf. Keep the lid on. Keep the loot. [Final Chorus] [key change up a semitone, brass stab] [voice: narrator, flat and deadpan] Katy, Kattie, what you did with Bettie? (she went out the side door) Katy, Kattie, is she coming home? (the note is on the till) Katy, Kattie, she has taken the scarf. (she has taken the good one) [Outro] [brass stab, bass riff alone] [tape stop]
