Bossa |
The standing invitation to the back of beyond |
Beyond which no man dares tread |
They do the bossa nova in Wilmington and Dover |
In clover, over your head |
Saddle your cow |
We’re leavin’right now |
Take off your skin |
Or we’ll never get in The drummer’s name is Jerry |
The singer she is Sherry |
The trumpet man is called something Dutch |
The vibraphone is shimmer |
The room is getting dimmer |
A glimmer, a touch too much |
The gang is all here |
They’re drowning in beer |
Pull up a chair |
Or just lay on the stairs |
It’s getting faster |
It’s getting tighter |
It’s getting easy |
Downtown tonight |
The bartender is tender |
Hey big spender, can’t you lend me a dollar or two? |
And ain’t that Maureen by the cigarette machine |
And ain’t that Hortence, too |
Breathe in the smoke |
Laugh at this joke |
You’ll have to shout |
If you want to get out |
It’s getting faster |
It’s getting tight |
It’s getting easy |
Downtown tonight |
