Memories

Frankie Laine, he was singing Jezebel
I pinned an Iron Cross to my lapel
I walked up to the tallest and the blondest girl
I said, «Look, you don’t know me now but very soon you will
So won’t you let me see»
I said «won't you let me see»
I said «won't you let me see
Your naked body?»
«Just dance me to the dark side of the gym
Chances are I will let you do most anything
I know you’re hungry, I can hear it in your voice
And there are many parts of me to touch, you have your choice
Ah but no you cannot see
She said «No you cannot see»
She said «No you cannot see
My naked body»
So we’re dancing close, the band is playing Stardust
The balloons and paper streamers they’re floating down on us
She says, «You've got a minute left to fall in love»
In solemn moments such as this I have put my trust
And all my faith to see
I said all my faith to see
I said all my faith to see
Her naked body
Naked body
All my faith…
(…you cheated you lied)
