Well i`ll be damned
No i won`t be damned
Because i have been damned
And i won`t be damned anymore!
I walked out
He didn`t walk out
It was me who walked out
It was me closing the door
"hello, operator?" i`d like to place a long distance call to a mr.
Billy rose in cleveland ohio. at the cleveland hotel. um, no, no, no,
No. i`ll wait."
Billy`s an alley cat that`s for sure
Nick`s from a horsier class
But i`d rather be with a cat`s meow
Than a genuine thouroughbred horse`s ass!
"um, that`s alright. no. no message. thank you."
One is fantasy, one is real
One is make believe, one is real
One is picture book,
More like comic book
One is real
Billy is real
I should have seen that before
All my life on the stage
I`m a big success
All my life off the stage
What a mess!
Oh what a mess!
All my life on the stage
How they cheer the clown
All my life off the stage
I kept closing out of town
When i`m up there i`m a great big star
And i get the heftiest lift
Howdy-do!
Up there i`m a great big star
A solid and qualified hit
I`m gonna take what i do up there
And i`m gonna do it down here!
