The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonely organ grinder cries,
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But its not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you,
I want you,
Darling I want you
So bad
The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
They wait for you.
And I wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin from my broken cup
And ask me to
Open up the gate for you.
I want you,
I want you,
Darling, I want you
So bad
I want you,
Darling, I want you
I want you
So bad
Now all my fathers, they've gone down,
True love they've been without it.
But all their daughters put me down
cause I don't think about it.
Well, I return to the queen of spades
And talk with my chambermaid.
She knows that Im not afraid
To look at her.
She is good to me
And there's nothing she doesn't see.
She knows where Id like to be
But it doesn't matter.
Now your dancing child with his chinese suit,
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
No, I wasn't very cute to him,
Was i?
But I did it, though, because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side
And because I ...
I want you,
I am everything
Darling, I want you,
Tonight I'll be your mother
Oh I want you
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Shucks for me there is no other
So bad,
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover
