Tenement Symphony

Jacky
4
And if one day I should become
5
A singer with a Spanish bum
6
Who sings for women of great virtue
7
I'd sing to them with a guitar
8
I borrowed from a coffee bar
9
Well, what you don't know doesn't hurt you
10
My name would be Antonio
11
And all my bridges I would burn
12
And when I gave them some they'd know
13
I'd expect something in return
14
I'd have to get drunk every night
15
And talk about virility
16
With some old grandmother
17
That might be decked out like a christmas tree
18
And no pink elephant I'd see
19
Though I'd be drunk as I could be
20
Still I would sing my song to me
21
About the time they called me "Jacky"
22
If I could be for only an hour
23
If I could be for an hour every day
24
If I could be for just one little hour
25
Cute in a stupid ass way
26
And if I joined the social whirl
27
Became procurer of young girls
28
Then I could have my own bordellos
29
My record would be number one
30
And I'd sell records by the ton
31
All sung by many other fellows
32
My name would then be handsome Jack
33
And I'd sell boats of opium
34
Whisky that came from Twickenham
35
Authentic queens
36
And phony virgins
37
I'd have a bank on every finger
38
A finger in every country
39
And every country ruled by me
40
I'd still know where I'd want to be
41
Locked up inside my opium den
42
Surrounded by some china men
43
I'd sing the song that I sang then
44
About the time they called me "Jacky"
45
If I could be for only an hour
46
If I could be for an hour every day
47
If I could be for just one little hour
48
Cute in a stupid ass way
49
Now, tell me, wouldn't it be nice
50
That if one day in paradise
51
I'd sing for all the ladies up there
52
And they would sing along with me
53
And we be so happy there to be
54
Cos' down below is really nowhere
55
My name would then be "Jupiter"
56
Then I would know where I was going
57
Become all knowing
58
My beard so very long and flowing
59
If I could play deaf, dumb and blind
60
Because I pitied all mankind
61
And broke my heart to make things right
62
I know that every single night
63
When my angelic work was through
64
The angels and the Devil too
65
Could sing my childhood song to me
66
About the time they called me "Jacky"
67
If I could be for only an hour
68
If I could be for an hour every day
69
If I could be for just one little hour
70
Cute in a stupid ass way
71
