Lyrics

They just ... they just killed those guys! To death! We can't stay here, Chicago's too hot! Sweet Sue needs a sax and a bass, and she's gonna get 'em From now on, I'm Jo... sephine, and you're Jer... aldine! You've flipped your wig! Now you're talkin'! We're going on tour with Sweet Sue's band Once we get to San Diego, it's a hop, skip, and a jump to Mexico! And how do you propose—? We'll make it up as we go! It's like jazz, we'll just vamp "We'll just vamp" is not a plan! Moment of truth, tied-brother We gotta riff! We gotta jam! We gotta go! When the club shuts down at two A.M. And most folks hit the hay Well, we're two cats who love to jam So we stay up and play When someone hits a rhythm Then a riff comes from a horn Then we jump in and play it out 'Til a brand new song is born! Well, this is like a late-night jam But now it's just us two! So 'til the tune is perfect, kiddo You know what we have to do! We'll just vamp, 'til we're ready We'll just vamp, on moon and June We'll just vamp, 'til the way to walk and talk flows like a tune! We'll just vamp, 'til we find the groove that keeps us both alive The Josephine and Geraldine save Joe and Jerry jive! You're not hearing me, Joe You're right, I'm sorry Let's hear your idea ... oh, you don't have one?! Strip! This girdle may be all that keeps us From an early grave Some nylons just might save us But these legs will need a shave! Your magic can't protect us And we do not own a gun Well, Joe, we're out of options So like stockings, girl, let's run! The girls we've known will now become A note, a beat, a chord So play it out and just put forth Our musical, feminine Smörgåsbord! We'll just vamp, 'til we're ready We'll just vamp, on moon and June We'll just vamp, 'til the way to walk and talk flows like a tune! We'll just vamp, 'til we hit the groove that lets us both survive The Josephine and Geraldine save Joe and Jerry jive! We've been watching women since we crawled out of the crib Yes, there's a woman in me, just think Adam and his rib And for a voice, just think of every songbird we have backed Well, use the bitch And make the switch Or this might be our final act! A wig is an accent A stocking's a rest There's a harmony in this scent! You'll be a sensation In the right foundation Find the doll Beneath the gent A skirt is a lick A garter's a riff There's a melody in this glove! Just make your pick 'til you're feeling diff— Who's that looker in the mirror? I think I'm in love! The girl I'll be will use her hips Just like a set of drums She'll go boom-ba-da-boom-ba-da Row, and hit the scene Fellas, here she comes! I'll tiptoe like an opus Yes, a symphony of strings This fellow won't be mellow More like Jell-O that's on springs! Let's put it all together Every color shape and size It's true, we're really in a jam So, sister, time to improvise! Sister, time to improvise! So let's vamp, 'til we're ready We'll just vamp, on moon to June We'll just vamp, 'til the way to walk and talk flows like a tune! We'll just vamp, now we've got the theme to play when we arrive The Josephine and Geraldine The Josephine and Geraldine The Josephine and Geraldine save Joe and Jerry jive!
