Panic Beach |
Well, the dog act got drunk again last night |
The king and queen of the waltz clog team had another fight |
The king was careless with his tango grip |
Nearly lost his queen in a dip |
Yeah, she righted herself |
Straightened out her slip and kicked him in the shin |
Miss Billy Begonia thinks she’s hit the «Big time» |
She wants a thick red rug from the dressing room door |
To the front-line of the footlights |
She’s got a sky blue swans down powder puff |
And a corset to keep her spirits up |
Yeah, she don’t sweat |
She sours and melts like ice cream in the sun |
She’ll be out of a job at the end of this three week run |
We’re having fun out here on Panic Beach |
All the vaudeville bums are here out on Panic Beach |
I hear them talk about the Palace but it’s so far out of reach |
So I’ll do my time then say goodbye to Panic Beach |
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
The visionary theatric strikes a juggler’s seesaw tune |
And the dying swan pirouettes and fawns |
By the light of the street lamp moon |
When my trunk is filled with taffeta |
Those «Big time» hacks won’t laugh at us |
When my taps are made of silver |
I can make the kiddies thrill for just one buck and wing |
Yeah, I will nail them to my heel and the Panic Choir sings |
Here comes a lucky little thing to Panic Beach |
Yeah, you know we got to teach him how to sing |
While we’re stuck on Panic Beach |
Ah the way ya hear 'em say it, doesn’t seem so outta reach |
So I’ll do my time then say goodbye to Panic Beach |
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
Well, the landlord gets a free show every Saturday at six |
Sometimes on a Sunday |
All dependin' on whatever kinda mood he’s in |
I keep his glass filled up with sherry |
And sing him all his favorite songs |
If a tear comes to his eye he may let a month go by |
Before he takes away my key |
Oh, that sherry starts to taste real good to me |
Hey mama, look at me on Panic Beach |
I may be hungry but my rent is free up on Panic Beach |
Yeah, I can almost see the palace no longer outta reach |
So I’ll do my time then say goodbye to Panic Beach |
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
