It’s my husband, that’s what she cried
then I took a look at her inside
in nothing but black spike heels
she said, don’t go away
a light flashes up in the other room
while both of us are smoking on a broken tube
Dick Black was moaning at the moon
it’s showtime

Brown, Brown, chocolate brown, just like candy
now my baby takes a turn at Jack Dandy
Jackie just got some new wheels
my heart was drumming
suddenly I take her by surprise
I say enough of this nonsense while I look into her eyes
baby baby had enough of your lies
it’s showtime

I’ve been coming here every twelve minutes
and I’m looking for my good old band
I’m going away
I heard his last two words as the music began to climb
he said, it’s showtime
just call me if you need a hand

Halleluja I came
my baby says she still feels the same
it don’t matter how she feels
I keep on strumming
after the others have gone away
I teel her I still have something to say
look at what happened to her yesterday
it’s showtime

I’ve been coming here every twelve minutes
and I’m looking for my good old band
then man who takes the door-money
tries too hard to understand
I heard his last two words as the music began to climb
he said, it’s showtime
just call me if you need a hand

I’ve been coming here every twelve minutes
and I’m looking for my good old band
I’m going away
I heard his last two words as the music began to climb
he said, it’s showtime
just call me if you need a hand.
