Men made out of monkeys
Men made into mice
Happy days are here again
And all the drinks half price
A girl with a trick and a man with a calling
Trying to make a living out of your downfalling
TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING out of anything at all
Didn t they teach you anything except how to be cruel
In that charm school
You and I as lovers
Were nothing but a farce
TRYING TO MAKE A SILK PURSE
OUT OF A SOW S ARSE
Saying Why don t you watch me
Hardly speaking SOTTO VOCE
I ve got a notion
I ve got an angle
Take your dreams and promises
And put them through the mangle
They say it s hell to finance too
And I just want to romance you
In this perpetual nightclub
I ll be yours eternal
Though the hours are long
And the noise infernal
JUST ONE SHAMEFUL ACT OR SOMETIMES TWO
WE MAKE BELIEVE WE RE MAKING DO
