Shrieks of Sheiks as they run across the movie screen
A thousand sand-dune soldiers led by an Arabian Queen
And the harem girls move like fancy (Clancy`s) dancers
In my dirty dreams
And I wake up on the floor clutching the bed-lamp
And Mama comes in, she screams
`Hey you been out with that tramp again last night
You know that silver-sequined Arab black bitch
The one that Mama don`t like ?`
But Mama she sings me moontime melodies
With this great Top 40 hook
She shrugs her shoulders, she don`t care
Papa just stares and says `Mary, look the girl`s alright
The girl`s alright`
And there`s a tenseness in the air He turns and says
Don`t you know, can`t you feel it `Tell me son, what`s the word ?`
Because there`s something hanging there `Cos you know he can`t hear it
Pull back the mist and reveal it But don`t go near it
And even if you fear what you near It`s criticized as too absurd
Don`t conceal it Even the animals fear it
`Cos if what Mama feels is too real Papa says `Fetch me my flashlight,
son`
She just claims she don`t feel it And she stumbles out the front door
So come out from behind your bunkers
`Cos the lift-off`s been a bust
Oh Papa`s Gone and Mama`s dead
And buried in my rocket dust
You`re alone now for the first time
Don`t worry, `cos that`s all right
All fear will completely disappear
Come the Arabian Night
Well the soundman smiles and turns the dials
To set the meter readin` rising
He pulls the singer`s voice from out of his pocket
To see if the audience likes it
Oh and in the very first row sits sweet Jenny Rue
With a bell on her shoe and she wants him to make it
He flicks Send " Arabian Night" Ringtone to your Cell
