Lyrics

'Neath the stars at Bazaars Often, I've had to caress men Five or ten dollars then, I collect from all those yes-men Don't be sad, I must add, that they meant no more than chess-men Darling, can't you see 'twas for charity? Though these lips have made slips They were never really serious Who'd have thought I'd be caught in a state that's so delirious I could cry salty tears Where have I been all these years? Listen, you, tell me, do How long has this been goin' on? What a kick, how I buzz Boy, you click like no one does Listen, sweet, I repeat How long has this been goin' on? Dear, when in your arms, I creep That divine rendezvous Don't wake me if I'm asleep Let me dream that it's true Kiss me once, kiss me twice Then once more, that makes thrice Come on, let's make it four What a break, for heaven's sake How long has this been goin' on? What a break, for heaven's sake How long has this been goin' on?
