Альбом i'm breathless
All work and no play,
Makes Dick a dull dull boy, career gets in the way.
Square jaw, ooo, such a handsome face,
Why do you have to save the human race?
Life of crime, no it never pays,
Clean up the streets and make your secret get-away.
All alone, in your room with your radio,
No one to hold you, had to let her go.
Chorus:
You're a man with a gun in your hand,
Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.
If you don't take time, it's not nice,
So here's my advice:
Take your love on the run,
Oh God, let me be the one.
Ah, ah, ah, man with a gun
All boss and no brains,
Bullies and thugs, they take up all your time in vain.
Can't let go, someone cries and you hear the call,
Who's gonna catch you, don't good guys ever fall?
(chorus)
All alone, in your room with your radio,
No one to hold you, I would never let you go.
(chorus, with last line:)
'Cause I can show you some fun
(spoken) And I don't mean with a gun. No.
You are a man with a gun in your hand;
Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.
If you don't take time, it's not nice,
So here's my advice:
Take your love on the run,
Oh God, let me be the one.
Ah, ah, ah, man with a gun, take it out of your hand;
Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.
If you don't make time, it's not nice,
So here's my advice:
Take your love on the run,
Oh God, let me be the one.
Sooner or later you're gonna be mine,
Sooner or later you're gonna be fine.
Baby, it's time that you face it,
I always get my man.
Sooner or later you're gonna decide,
Sooner or later there's nowhere to hide.
Baby, it's time, so why waste it in chatter?
Let's settle the matter.
Baby, you're mine on a platter,
I always get my man.
But if you insist, babe, the challenge delights me.
The more you resist, babe, the more it excites me.
And no one I've kissed, babe, ever fights me again.
If you're on my list, it's just a question of when.
When I get a yen, then baby, Amen.
I'm counting to ten, and then ...
I'm gonna love you like nothing you've known,
I'm gonna love you, and you all alone.
Sooner is better than later but lover,
I'll hover, I'll plan.
This time I'm not only getting, I'm holding my man.
(Spoken) Come over here!
Some girls, they like candy, and others, they like
to grind,
I'll settle for the back of your hand somewhere on my
behind.
Treat me like I'm a bad girl, even when I'm being good
to you,
I don't want you to thank me, you can just spank me.
Mmm.
Some guys like to sweet talk, and others, they like
to tease,
Tie my hands behind my back and, ooo, I'm in ecstasy.
Don't slobber me with kisses, I can get that from my
sisters,
Before I get too cranky, you better...
Chorus:
Like hanky panky [hanky panky],
Nothing like a good spanky [good spanky].
Don't take out your handkerchiefs,
I don't wanna cry, I just wanna hanky panky.
Like hanky panky [hanky panky],
Nothing like a good spanky [good spanky].
Don't take out your handkerchiefs,
I don't wanna cry, I just wanna hanky panky guy.
Oooo.
Please don't call a doctor, 'cause there's nothing
wrong with me,
I just like things a little rough and you better not
disagree.
'Cause I don't like a big softie, [no], I like someone
mean and bossy,
Let me speak to you frankly, you better...
(chorus)
Oooo, yeah.
Spoken:
What about? Yeah. That's an interesting...
Oooo.
My bottom hurts just thinking about it.
[She wants you to] Treat me like I'm a bad girl,
[She needs you to] Even when I'm being good to you.
I don't want you to thank me [Don't thank her], you
better...
(chorus)
[Hanky panky] Oooh, yeah
[Good spanky] Get the picture?
[Don't wanna cry, I just wanna]
That's the way I came into this world,
The doctor said, "Lady, she's a beautiful girl."
He gave me a spanky and the doctor smiled,
So give it up, honey, 'cause I want it.
Yeah.
[Hanky panky, good spanky, don't wanna cry, I just wanna]
Hola! Ese bato loco!
I'm going bananas,
And I feel like my poor little mind is being devoured
by piranhas,
For I'm going bananas.
I'm non compos mentes,
And I feel like a tooth being drilled, a nerve being
killed by a dentist,
For I'm non compos mentes.
Who knows?
Could be the tropic heat
Or something that I eat,
That makes me gonzo.
I do carry on so, for I'm going bananas,
Someone book me a room in the hot haciendo with all
my mananas
For I'm going bananas.
I'm going meshuga
All day long there's a man in my brain incessently playing
"Booga wooga",
But I'm going meshuga.
There's bats in my belfry.
Won't you make sure this straightjacket's tight,
Otherwise I might get myself free.
Yes, there's bats in my belfry.
Who knows?
Could be the wine I drink
Or it's the way I think,
That makes me gonzo.
Oh, Doctor Alonzo says I'm going bananas,
Someone get me a bed in the "Casa de Loco"
for all my mananas,
For I'm going bananas.
Yes, I'm going bananas.
Si, I'm going bananas.
My guy is really something, he's sensitive and shy
My guy is such a bumpkin, it doesn't take much to make
him cry.
If you hurt someone helpless, it's like taking away
all his toys,
He's just a cry baby boy.
My guy is sentimental, he's always feeling blue
He can be so temperamental and I don't know what I should
do.
If you step on a little bug he cries all over the floor,
He's just a cry baby bore.
Chorus:
I don't want to hurt his feelings,
But his outbursts have me really
Boo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time,
If I turn out like him, I think I'm gonna cry, baby
La, la, la, la, la, la,
He's such a cry baby,
La, la, la, la, la, la.
(Spoken:) And I'll tell you something else
My guy is such a wet noodle, he's always teary-eyed
He acts like a real cock-a-doodle, he can't even tell
you why.
If you just play him a sappy song, he acts like his
doggie just died,
He's just a cry baby guy.
(Spoken:) No kidding, oh dear
My guy is such a whiner, he's worse than baddie so
A cockroach seen in the diner, and the tears flow out
of the blue.
And if I ask him to knock it off, he goes and cries
in the can,
He's such a cry baby man.
(chorus)
I love a cry baby,
La, la, la, la, la, la.
He's such a cry baby,
La, la, la, la, la, la.
(Spoken:) Would you knock it off please? Thank you.
Seems I've played the game for much too long
I let people buy my love and I
Never got to sing my songs for you.
I had all my bets laid all on you
Set your stakes too high, you're bound to lose.
In the game of love you pay your dues.
Say that happiness cannot be measured,
And a little pain can bring you all life's little pleasures.
What a joke.
Chorus:
I was not your woman, I was not your friend,
But you gave me something to remember.
No other man said love yourself
Nobody else can.
We weren't meant to be,
At least not in this lifetime,
But you gave me something to remember.
I hear you still say, "Love yourself".
I had all my bets laid all on you
Set your stakes too high, you're bound to lose.
In the game of love I've paid my dues.
Guess I'm waiting for my place in your sun,
Wish I had the chance to know you and it wasn't stormy
weather.
What a shame, who's to blame?
(chorus)
I'm gonna show you that good guys don't always win
I'm gonna show you the brighter side of living in sin.
So when you're six feet under, you won't wonder why
Just 'cause you got a halo don't mean that you can fly.
If you thought it was over, you're way off track
You made a blunder, and...
Chorus:
You put me back, back in business,
This ain't no hit or miss, I'm gonna get my way.
'Cause you put me back, back in business,
You're my first witness, and I'm here to stay.
I'm gonna show you good guys always finish last
Speaking of virtue, being nice is a thing of the past.
When I want something done, I'll say it with a gun
Just 'cause you're an angel don't mean you're having
fun.
I just wanted to thank you for what you lack
Hope they don't hang you, 'cause...
(chorus)
A tisket, a tasket, you've lost your yellow basket.
(Spoken:) You don't know if you want to hit me or kiss
me.
I just wanted to thank you for what you lack
Hope they don't hang you, 'cause...
(chorus)
He's back in business now
Give me a hand and I'll take a bow.
He's back in business now
Bah dah dah, bah dah dah, bah dah dah, bah dah dah.
He's coming back in style
Give me an inch and I'll take a mile.
He's back and why oh why
Bah dah dah, bah dah dah, bah dah dah, bah dah dah.
(repeat)
Once upon a time I had plenty of nothing,
Which was fine with me.
Because I had rhythm, music, love,
The sun, the stars and the moon above,
Had the clear blue sky and the deep blue sea.
That was when the best things in life were free.
Then time went by and now I got plenty of plenty,
Which is fine with me.
'Cause I still got love, I still got rhythm,
But look at what I got to go with 'em.
"Who could ask for anything more?", I hear
you query.
Who would ask for anything more? Well, let me tell you,
dearie.
Got my diamonds, got my yacht, got a guy I adore.
I'm so happy with what I got, I want more!
Count your blessings, one, two, three
I just hate keeping score.
Any number is fine with me
As long as it's more
As long as it's more!
I'm no mathematician, all I know is addition
I find counting a bore.
Keep the number mounting, your accountant does the counting.
[More! More!]
I got rhythm, music too, just as much as before
Got my guy and my sky of blue,
Now, however, I own the view.
More is better than nothing, true
But nothing's better than more, more, more
Nothing's better than more.
One is fun, why not two?
And if you like two, you might as well have four,
And if you like four, why not a few
Why not a slew
[More! More!]
If you've got a little, why not a lot?
Add and bit and it'll get to be an oodle.
Every jot and tittle adds to the pot
Soon you've got the kit as well as the caboodle.
[More! More!]
Never say when, never stop at plenty,
If it's gonna rain, let it pour.
Happy with ten, happier with twenty
If you like a penny, wouldn't you like many much more?
Or does that sound too greedy?
That's not greed, no, indeedy
That's just stocking the store
Gotta fill your cupboard, remember Mother Hubbard.
[More! More!]
Each possession you possess
Helps your spirits to soar.
That's what's soothing about excess
Never settle for something less.
Something's better than nothing, yes!
But nothing's better than more, more more
[Except all, all, all]
Except all, all, all
Except once you have it all [have it all]
You may find all else above [find all else above]
That though things are bliss,
There's one thing you miss, and that's
More! More!
More! More! More! More!
More! More! More!
What can you lose?
Only the blues.
Why keep concealing everything you're feeling?
Say it to her, what can you lose?
Maybe it shows,
She's had clues, which she chose to ignore.
Maybe though she knows,
And just wants to go on as before.
As a friend, nothing more
So she closes the door.
Well, if she does
Those are the dues.
Once the words are spoken,
Something may be broken.
Still, you love her
What can you lose?
But what if she goes?
At least now, you have part of her.
What if she had to choose?
Leave it alone
Hold it all in.
Better a bone
Don't even begin.
With so much to win,
There's too much to lose.
Now I'm following you (Part I)
Let's dance, you can do a little two-step
I'll go anywhere that you step to, 'cause I'm following
you.
My feet might be falling out of rhythm,
Don't know what I'm doing with them, but I know I'm
following you.
Unlikely as it is to me, on the floor with two left
feet
Let's boogie woogie till our hearts skip a beat, but
who's counting?
Encore, once again around the dance floor
Romance is in the picture too, now I'm following you.
Unlikely as it is to me, on the floor with two left
feet
Let's boogie woogie till our hearts skip a beat, but
who's counting?
Encore, once again around the dance floor
Romance is in the picture too, now I'm following you.
Now I'm following you (Part II)
Let's dance, you can do a little two-step
I'll go anywhere that you step to, 'cause I'm following
you.
My feet might be falling out of rhythm,
Don't know what I'm doing with them, but I know I'm
following you.
Unlikely as it is to me, on the floor with two left
feet
Let's boogie woogie till our hearts skip a beat, but
who's counting?
Encore, once again around the dance floor
Romance is in the picture too, now I'm following you.
(Spoken:) Take it away, boys.
On the run.
Be the one.
On the run.
Spoken:
Yeah.
[Calling Dick Tracy, calling Dick Tracy]
[Come here Tracy, this is Sam, what are you doing up
there?]
I'll tell ya.
[Calling Dick Tracy, calling Dick Tracy]
[Do you read me, Tracy?]
[To tell you the truth Tracy, I don't know.]
Find out.
An unexamined life is not worth living.
(Spoken:) Come over here!
Let's dance, you can do a little two-step
I'll go anywhere that you step to, 'cause I'm following
you.
Encore, once again around the dance floor
Romance is in the picture too, now I'm following you.
But who's counting?
Spoken:
[Ten million, twenty million, thirty million]
What about Dick Tracy?
[Forty million]
Dick, that's an interesting name.
[Fifty million]
Dick Dick [Sixty million] Dick
Dick Dick Dick Dick Dick Dick Dick, [Seventy million],

(Spoken:) My bottom hurts just thinking about it.
Unlikely as it is to me, on the floor with two left
feet
Let's boogie woogie till our hearts skip a beat, but
who's counting?
Encore, once again around the dance floor
Romance is in the picture too, now I'm following you.
(Spoken:) Would you knock it off please? Thank you.
Strike a pose
Strike a pose
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Look around everywhere you turn is heartache
It's everywhere that you go [look around]
You try everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know [life that you know]
When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away
It's called a dance floor, and here's what it's for,
so
Chorus:
Come on, vogue
Let your body move to the music [move to the music]
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, vogue
Let your body go with the flow [go with the flow]
You know you can do it
All you need is your own imagination
So use it that's what it's for [that's what it's for]
Go inside, for your finest inspiration
Your dreams will open the door [open up the door]
It makes no difference if you're black or white
If you're a boy or a girl
If the music's pumping it will give you new life
You're a superstar, yes, that's what you are, you know
it
(chorus, substituting "groove" for "move")
Beauty's where you find it
Not just where you bump and grind it
Soul is in the musical
That's where I feel so beautiful
Magical, life's a ball
So get up on the dance floor
(chorus)
Vogue, [Vogue]
Beauty's where you find it [move to the music]
Vogue, [Vogue]
Beauty's where you find it [go with the flow]
Greta Garbo, and Monroe
Deitrich and DiMaggio
Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean
On the cover of a magazine
Grace Kelly; Harlow, Jean
Picture of a beauty queen
Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire
Ginger Rodgers, dance on air
They had style, they had grace
Rita Hayworth gave good face
Lauren, Katherine, Lana too
Bette Davis, we love you
Ladies with an attitude
Fellows that were in the mood
Don't just stand there, let's get to it
Strike a pose, there's nothing to it
Vogue, vogue
Oooh, you've got to
Let your body move to the music
Oooh, you've got to just
Let your body go with the flow
Oooh, you've got to
