Well i'll be damned
No i won't be damned
Because i have been damned
And i won't be damned anymore!
I walked out
He didn't walk out
It was me who walked out
It was me closing the door
"hello, operator?" i'd like to place a long distance call to a mr.
Billy rose in cleveland ohio. at the cleveland hotel. um, no, no, no,
No. i'll wait."
Billy's an alley cat that's for sure
Nick's from a horsier cla**
But i'd rather be with a cat's meow
Than a genuine thouroughbred horse's a**!
"um, that's alright. no. no message. thank you."
One is fantasy, one is real
One is make believe, one is real
One is picture book,
More like comic book
One is real
Billy is real
I should have seen that before
All my life on the stage
I'm a big success
All my life off the stage
What a mess!
Oh what a mess!
All my life on the stage
How they cheer the clown
All my life off the stage
I kept closing out of town
When i'm up there i'm a great big star
And i get the heftiest lift
Howdy-do!
Up there i'm a great big star
A solid and qualified hit
I'm gonna take what i do up there
And i'm gonna do it down here!
Quick as a lightning flash
I'm moving straight ahead
I'm gonna be a smash
I'm gonna knock 'em dead.......
