Down at the Lido they welcome you
|
With sausage and beer,
|
Klaus and the Rooster have been there too,
|
But lately he spends his time here.
|
|
Hanging with the mayor and all his friends
|
And nobody cares,
|
Where the sailor shuts out the sunrise
|
Blacked out on the stairs
|
|
Chorus:
|
Knock twice, rap with your cane
|
Feels nice, you're out of the rain
|
We got your skinny girl
|
Here at the Western World
|
|
Ruthie will give you the silver key
|
To open the red door:
|
Lay down your Jackson and you will see
|
The sweetness you've been crying for
|
|
In the night you hide from the madman
|
You're longing to be
|
But it all comes out on the inside
|
Eventually
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
(Repeat last verse and chorus)
|
