Lyrics

That's right, lovely Constitution Hall, that's right, man. Now

I haven't toured in a long time, man. Haven't done a special for a

Long time. I was waitin' for special things to happen in my life

Before I did another special, right? And so I haven't toured in a

While, and a lot's happened in my life since the last time I was on

The road, man. Uh, I had a little baby girl. Had a little baby girl

Had a baby girl. Got it? It's not a big deal. I mean, even roaches

Have kids, right? But uh, I had a little baby girl, right? And it's

Amazing when you have a girl, 'cause if you're a man, it like opens

Up your eyes. And you know, I realize I'm the man in her life. And

My relationship with my daughter is gonna affect her relationship

With men for the rest of her life, okay? You know? Nah, nah. And

Every man in here has dated a woman with some daddy issues. That shit

Ain't never fun, okay? She givin' you a hard time over some shit her

Daddy did in 1974. So sometimes I'm walkin' with my daughter, I'm

Talkin' to my daughter, I'm lookin' at her, I'm pushin' her in the

Stroller, and sometimes I pick her up, and I just stare at her, and

I realize my only job in life is to keep her off the pole. Keep my

Baby off the pole. I mean, they don't grade fathers, but if your

Daughter's a stripper, you fucked up. Yeah, you went mighty wrong

There, baby. You thought you had a household. No, you got a ho camp

And I'm not makin' fun of the strippers, 'cause some of these girls

Were abused. Some of 'em were abused. And some of 'em just missed a

Few hugs. Some of 'em were like, "Daddy, can we talk?" "Hey, I'm

Watchin' the game." "I'll show you! I'm gonna dance naked to Mötley

Crüe records! I'm gonna change my name to Cinnabons, and I'm gonna

Wear clear heels!" When did clear heels become the new whore uniform?

When did that happen? Was there a big ol' ho convention and all the

Hoes got together and said, "We need somethin' new. Somethin' that

Just says 'nasty.'" And one girl said, "I got it! Clear heels!" "Ooh

Girl, you disgustin'!" "You alright." "That's right, you're gonna get

A whole promotion. That's right." Now, I got nothin' against

Strippers. I got nothin' against strippers. Somebody's gotta do it

Somebody has to take on the monumental responsibility that the

Strippers do. Somebody's gotta do it. Somebody has to entertain the

Married men of America. Somebody has to do it. Okay? Your wife

You know, your wife will take care of ya, but she ain't gonna

Entertain ya. You give your wife some clear heels, she'll say, "

What the fuck is that shit? Get this ho shit out my house! Now wash

Your hands so you can eat!" I got nothin' against the strippers, man

I got one thing, but the strip clubs are very addictive. Not to me

But to other people. They are addictive. Every guy in here got a

Friend that's addicted to strip clubs. Addicted like heroin, okay?

Addicted. You know those guys that cannot function in a normal club?

You take 'em to a normal club, they ask one girl to dance, "Excuse

Me, would you like to dance?" "No, maybe a little bit later." "Yo

Man, let's go to titty bar, man. Man, these bitches is stuck up, man!

I gave this bitch a dollar, she ain't do nothin'!" Nah, nah, nah

Nah. We all got those friends that's addicted to strip clubs. You

Know those guys that go to the strip club in the daytime? If you at

A strip club and the sun is out, you got some problems. You know

Those guys that eat at the strip club? Eat at the buffet. How the

Fuck could you eat at a nasty-ass strip club? What? Are you that

Hungry? Motherfucker, go to Mickey D's or some shit! The Rwandan

Refugees won't eat that shit! At a damn strip club, titties and

Tater tots don't mix! Nah, nah, I got nothin' against the strippers

I got no problem with the strippers. What I do have a problem with

Though, is the stripper myth. You know the stripper myth. The

Stripper myth is "I'm stripping to pay my tuition." No, you're

Not! There's no strippers in college! There's no clear heels in

Biology! Shit, I didn't know they had a college that only took

One-dollar bills. And if they got so many strippers in college

How come I never got a smart lap dance? I never got a girl who

Sat on my lap and said, "If I was you, I would diversify my

Portfolio. You know, ever since the end of the Cold War, I find NATO

Obsolete." I haven't met her yet. If I do, she gonna get a big tip!
