Well you play that tarantella all the hounds will start to roar The boys all go to hell and then the cubans hit the floor They drive along the pipeline, they tango 'til they're sore They take apart their nightmares and they leave them by the door Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs I'll tell you all my secrets, but i lie about my past And send me off to bed for evermore Make sure they play my theme song, i guess daisies will have to do Just get me to new orleans and paint shadows on the pews Turn the spit on that pig and kick the drum and let me down Put my clarinet beneath your bed 'til i get back in town Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets, but i lie about my past So send me off to bed for evermore Just make sure she's all in calico and the color of a doll Wave the flag on cadillac day, and a sk**et on the wall Cut me a switch or hold your breath 'til the sun goes down Write my name on the hood, send me off to another town, and just And just let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs Tell you all my secrets, but i lie about my past Will you send me off to bed for evermore Fall out of the window with confetti in my hair Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs I'll tell you all my secrets, but i lie about my past Send me off to bed for evermore, send me off to bed for evermore
