Well you can get a hand There's one to be had They're all working on the other side of town Tonight must be the night Everybody's set their sights And the lovers jamboree is where they're bound Well, everybody will find someone Someone's looking out for me So I'm shutting up the shop Let the loving never stop You can drop me at the lovers jamboree Let me tell ya... There's something in the air That's kicking back despair What a strange thing, I'm feeling good tonight The gangs and wrecking crews Have all declared a truce As the lovers jamboree begins to [bite] Well now, everybody's got to get there
And I'll be taking two 'f our friends Tell the left man be so kind Not to call if he don't mind He'll find me at the lovers jamboree Let me tell ya... Well now, everybody's got to get there And I'll be taking two 'f our friends Tell the postman hold my mail Or redirect it to the jail Tell the Hebrew and the Greek To get the God up good and steep Tell the meek the mild the halt and lame The sisters of mercy, they're shrouded in flame The Church and him are sharing the blame For the lovers jamboree For the lovers jamboree The lovers jamboree
