    Story Behind the Song
    Based on events at a Portland, OR strip club. Molly was a particularly engaging performer. Song describes the ways in which club patrons view the dancers, either trash or saints. Also touches upon our insecurities as " shy, unappealing" men in a room of beautiful women. Written in August 1997, recorded some thereafter. Final version recorded in March 1999 after multiple tweakings.

    Lyrics
    I saw her standin' by the window
    wondered if she'd share a beer

    Tryin' hard to hide my motives
    and kinda scared she'll smell the fear

    Now she's dancin' like a demon
    fulfillin' dreams for me and you

    She's my darlin' or your lovely
    It only costs a dollar or two

    (Watchin' Molly Oh, by golly)

    Sittin' pretty on a barstool
    I wonder if she'll stay a while,

    and order up a gin and tonic
    She pulls me in with skin and smile

    But I am shy and unappealing
    and she is all that men yearn for

    She can be my Saint Theresa
    or she can be a two-bit whore

    (Watchin' Molly Oh, by golly)
