And I'm so down in this foreign town
Midnight in Moscow is lunchtime in L.A.
Moonlight and vodka takes me away
I can't even talk to these Russian girls
My hands are shaking and my feet are numb
Midnight in Moscow is sunshine in L.A.
Well, I've had enough of this serious business
Play me a song don't make it a sad one
But I haven't been warm for a week
I'm sure she's working for the KGB
I know it's hard to believe
Ooh, play boys, play
Espionage is a serious business
That dancing girl is making eyes at me
And it's so damn cold, yes it's so damn cold
Tonight there's a band it ain't such a bad one
In this paradise ah, cold as ice
My head is aching and the bar's going round
The beer is lousy and the food is worse
Moonlight and vodka takes me away
