Lyrics
- All you boys with high blood pressure
All you girls with too much flesh
Your day has come at last
Here’s a dance you poor wall flowers
Once you try, you’ll dance for hours
I’ll explain it fast
Hot stuff is taboo, follow me, and do
The River Seine
Song lyrics to “The River Seine“, a melancholy song about two lovers who met there, are now separated, and hope to reunite there
Fox Song
Fox Song – folk song dating back to the middle ages
The fox went out on a chilly night,
he prayed to the Moon to give him light,
for a many a mile to go that night
before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o,
many a mile to go that night
before he reached the town-o.
