Tango: Maureen

吉屋出租电影原声带--Tango: Maureen


The samples won't delay
But the cable --

There's another way
Say something -- anything

Test -- one, two three --
Anything but that

This is weird
It's weird
Very weird
Fuckin' weird

I'm so mad
That I don't know what to do
Fighting with microphones
Freezing down to my bones
And to top it all off
I'm with you

Feel like going insane?
Got a fire in your brain?
And you're thinking of drinking gasoline?
As a matter of fact --
Honey, I know this act
It's called the 'Tango Maureen'

The Tango Maureen
It's a dark, dizzy merry-go-round
As she keeps you dangling

You're wrong
Your heart she is mangling
It's different with me

And you toss and you turn
'Cause her cold eyes can burn
Yet you yearn and you churn and rebound
I think I know what you mean
The Tango Maureen

Has she ever pouted her lips
And called you 'Pookie'
(Never)

Have you ever doubted a kiss or two?
This is spooky
Did you swoon when she walked through the door?

Every time -- so be cautious
Did she moon over other boys --?
More than moon --
I'm getting nauseous


Where'd you learn to tango?

With the French Ambassador's daughter in her dorm
room at Miss Porter's. And you?

With Nanette Himmelfarb. The Rabbi's daughter at the
Scarsdale Jewish Community Center.

It's hard to do this backwards.
You should try it in heels!

She cheated
She cheated
Maureen cheated
Fuckin' cheated

I'm defeated
I should give up right now

Gotta look on the bright side
With all of your might
I'd fall for her still anyhow

When you're dancing her dance
You don't stand a chance
Her grip of romance
Make you fall

So you think, 'Might as well'
"Dance a tango to hell"
'At least I'll have tangoed at all'

The Tango Maureen
Gotta dance till your diva is through
You pretend to believe her
Cause in the end -- you can't leave her
But the end it will come
Still you have to play dumb
Till you're glum and you bum
And turn blue

Why do we love when she's mean?
And she can be so obscene
My Maureen......

The Tango Maureen!
