But all I can do is hand it to you
The landlord he finally paid us all
I don't know how it happened
I don't know how it happened
The twelve keys hanging off from my chain
Well now my door was standing open
Now it's past last call for alcohol
Past recall has been here and gone
They're all doing the monster mash
And you never did have the intelligence to use
It all took place so quick
And your latest trick
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left
It was faster than the eye could flick
And your latest trick
Echoes roars dinosaurs
Like a bowery bum when he finally understands
Have the city to themselves
And I played the blues in twelve bars down Lover's Lane
You must have had a pass key made out of wax
Are only taking calls for cash
And most of the taxis, most of the whores
You played robbery with insolence
And we're standing outside of this wonderland
I don't know how it happened
Security were laid back and lax
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
But all I can do is hand it to you
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
Prehistoric garbage trucks
It all took place so quick
But it was only my heart that got broken
But all I can do is hand it to you
