The Dance At Delmonico's |
The night reeks of disdain |
Foiled plans and stolen bottles of champagne |
Reunion dance at Delmonico’s and a broken leg |
A misled riot, two soldiers with nothing better |
Now one’s lying dead and the other pours over the counter |
Mr. In and Mr. Out are sloshing 'round the streets while |
Gordon quietly kills himself |
A fist of money woes |
The damn dance at Delmonico’s whose music |
You have to understand |
But now Edith wants another man, she says |
Of course I’ll leave with you |
As she slips out to the avenue |
Quite disgusted with her fantasies |
Of Gordon Sterret romantically |
This is my vacation and I won’t let you drag me down |
With a cheap sob story and that plastered-on frown |
You can’t expect me to give handouts to my ancient friends |
After all, this is my vacation |
She’s a Jewel, a regular diamond |
Gordon, can’t you see? |
She’d ward away anyone for you |
If only you would stay |
She’s a Jewel, a regular diamond |
Gordon, but who are we to decide? |
Maybe you wanted to die desperately |
The streets reek of disdain |
In and out share breakfast and champagne |
Jewel wakes up to a half-filled bed |
Empty bottles on display |
They’ve reached the top but they demand another floor now |
We’ve reached the top but we all want another morn now |
Take us to heaven X 29 |
