The Soul of Carmen Miranda |
Since the soul of Carmen Miranda had captured the mind of man |
Dismissed with her generation for the price of a can-can |
Consigned to the sideshows of history, with the patronized orphans of film |
She seeded the bait and offered the faint hope of chance to innocent men |
In love with the trance of her dances |
And abandoned by them |
And abandoned by them |
She called in the boys |
She remembered their names, and the sorry condition they came in |
The dances were soiled, they spun and recoiled |
From the master tapdancer inside them, beside them |
The soul of Carmen Miranda had captured the mind of man |
Dismissed with her generation for the price of a can-can |
The soul of Carmen Miranda for the price of a can-can |
The soul of Carmen Miranda for the price of a can-can |
