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

******' 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

You're 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 Nanetter 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

******' 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 makes 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 'til 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

'Til you're glum and you bum

And turn blue

Why do we love when she's mean?

And she can be obscene

My Maureen

The Tango Maureen!
