letra de street lamp swing - dirty honkers

[intro: narrator]
the street lamp shadow poured into the alley
like a shot out of a mystery thriller romance fl!ck
no sound but the paper trash dancing in the city smoke
reminded me i’m out of cigaretts
“this must be h-ll” i thought as i rest my back on the brick wall
waiting for nothing to happen

when suddenly a big bright yellow cadillac came gushing out of the main street, stopping right in front of me, a compelling voice crept out the back seat

“hey there stranger, looks like you need a drink. climb in!”
desperate an curious i got in the car, not long after screeching to a halt, in front of a big door with nеon lights…
[verse 1: lady]
open up the front door, no you come through thе back
keep the liquor flowing all bound to attack
where you going kiddy no time to stray-hey-hey-hey-hey
can i get a “haihoo”, from the freak side on the dance floor?
holler at me, and let me know
do you like a swing time would you like some more?

[chorus: lady]
step up and shake it ’till feathers
put your left and right together
clap your hands now to the beat
tonight we’re gonna dance ’till we bring the heat!

[instrumental + lady]
ooh – yeah – h – h
o – uh – yeah – h – h

come on big boy, play that jazzy song
hit that note, wear that h-rn
sing it all night long

come on big boy, play that song for me
grap that jumper, then make it burst
like a bumblebee
come on, play-y i-it, play-y i-it, play-y i-it
come on, play-y i-it, play-y i-it, play-y i-it

[vers 2: narrator]
pretty girls, of all sorts
with matching handbags and skirts surrounded the bar
as my hostess sparaded around
hanging on to my arm like a movie star

and dragging me towards the back room
where the jazz band on-stage played a hard tune
and everybody started to move like a dunes
hooked by the rhythm like a sharp harpoon

as i noticed of the corner of my eye
mister jackmelone giving me the evil eye
he runs half of the clubs in town, you see
and for some reason i feel like he don’t like me

he comin’ our way with intent of harm
my hostess quickly noticed and grabbed my arm
pulled me up on stage and started to dance
i guess this the story of some bad romance

[chorus: lady + narrator]
step up and shake it ’till feathers
put your left and right together
clap your hands now to the beat
tonight we’re gonna dance ’till we bring the heat!
[bridge: narrator, off-beat]
and there i am in the middle of all this mess
tryin’ to get away from this madman
right on the band-stand with nowhere to go
[trumpet guy:] here, grab a trumpet and blow some smoke
i don’t know how to play that!
[trumpet guy:] oh, well, you better learn fast
oh boy
i guess i got no choice
[ladys:] blow johnny, blow
here we go

[chorus: lady]
come on big boy, play that jazzy song
hit that note, wear that h-rn
sing it all night long

come on big boy, play that song for me
grap that jumper, then make it burst
like a bumblebee

come on, play-y i-it, play-y i-it, play-y i-it
come on, play-y i-it, play-y i-it, play-y i-it

[end]
