All the late night bargains |
Have been struck |
Between the satin beaus |
And their belles |
And prehistoric garbage trucks |
Have the city to themselves |
Echoes roars dinosaurs |
They're all doing the monster mash |
And most of the taxis and most the whores |
Are only taking calls for cash |
I don't know how it happened |
It all took place so quick |
But all I can do |
Is hand it to you |
And your latest trick |
Well now my door was standing open |
Security was laid back and lax |
But it was only my heart got broken |
You must have had a pass key made out of wax |
You played robbery with insolence |
And I played the blues in twelve bars |
Down Lover's Lane |
And you never did have |
The inteligence to use |
The twelve keys hanging off my chain |
I don't know how it happened |
It all took place so quick |
But all I can do |
Is hand it to you |
And your latest trick |
Repeat Bridge |
Now it's past last call for alcohol |
Past recall has been here and gone |
The landlord finally paid us all |
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns |
And we're standing outside |
Of this wonderland |
Looking so bereaved and so bereft |
Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands |
The bottle's empty |
And there's nothing left |
I don't know how it happened |
It was faster than the eye could flick |
But all I can do |
Is hand it to you |
And your latest trick |
Repeat Bridge x2 |
Bridge: |
