|
she goes steady with the maestro
|
and she rosins his baton
|
but when he goes out on a binge-o
|
she's been known to carry on
|
when the maestro goes out and paints the town
|
|
maestro he gets very jealous
|
when she talks to any other man
|
and the other men's women tend to worry
|
what's she got to talk about with them?
|
the women worry 'bout what she wanna do
|
when she's through conducting her interlude
|
|
one time I saw her at the cafe
|
she was laughin' like she just let down her hair
|
the time I saw her on the sidewalk
|
and her face was all flushed and filled with tears
|
the time I saw her in front of the pet shop
|
and the maestro and the goose and the ghost were there
|
the time I saw her on her doorstep
|
she invited me upstairs
|
and she gave me a wooded chair
|
that I sit on in my underwear
|
|
I used to play the second fiddle
|
in her philharmonic hall
|
but now I look out for numero uno
|
and I don't play no violins at all
|
I play the part of the man who crawls the wall
|
