Chorus Girl, 1969 Lyrics

chorus girl, 1969

I’d like to be a chorus girl, 1969

Feathers, fan kicks, fishnets, big tits, sweet, white wine

Scandalous behavior, Warhol parties all the time

Chorus girl, 1969

I’d like to be a pagan man in 44BC

Pre-Jesus, no preachers between paradise and me

I’d live and breathe and love and need and die and cease to be

Pagan man, 44BC

I’d like to jump right off my shadow

Leave this troubled time behind me

And I’d like to think, wherever I go

Your love is bound to find me

I’d like to write the story of our torrid affair

A modern Odyssey, inspiring lovers everywhere

The sexy, steamy, wild, wet dreamy, honest truth laid bare

The story of our torrid love affair

I’d like to see me old, heart turned gold, hair turned white

The picture of serenity, just knowing it’s all right

I’d smile into your eyes and fall asleep besides you every night

Can’t you see us old and gold and white?

Then we would jump right off our shadows

Leave this troubled world behind

On a flying trapeze of tarnished halos

Gone to rest in peace and lose our minds

Into the wild, blue yonder, off we go

Gone to rest in peace and lose our minds
