We’ll do the Tango
We’ll try the Fox Trot
I’ll eat a mango
You drink a straight scotch
You know I told you
You could be classy
So why did you have
To be so nasty?
Remember the curls
Of the Deutscher Girls?
A love of mine
From down on the Rhine
I’ll fill your bath with
The finest champagne
I’ll lick your skin dry
I cherish your name
The stakes get higher
As you dress sparsely
So why did you have
To be so nasty?
I love your blonde hair
I kiss your pigtails
And I could not share
The scratch of your nails
And though you mark me
Your eyes so glassy
Oh why did you have
To be so nasty?
