She sang the best she'd ever sang
She could never sing any better
But Mr. Davidson never rang
She knew he would forget her
She'd seen him there
And put herself to ransom
He had stared
She had really looked her best
She could never look any better
But she knew she'd failed the test
She knew he would forget her
TRIUMPHANT!
Was the wy she felt
As she acknowledged the applause
TRIUMPHANT!
Was the way she'd felt
When she saw him at the dressing room door
She was happier than she'd ever been
As he praised her for her grace
But his expression changed, she had seen
As he leant to kiss her face
It ended there
He claimed a late appointment
She quickly turned to hide her disappointment
She ripped her glittering gown
Couldn't face another show, no
Her deodorant had let her down
She should have used Odorono!
(Original final chorus)
Odorono!
Could have saved her day, could've helped her to get the part
Odorono!
And he would have stayed...
Could've helped her to save her heart
Save her heart
Me and my brother
Were talking to each other
'Bout what makes a man a man
Is it brains or brawn
Or the month you were born
We just couldn't understand
Our old man didn't like our appearance
He said that only women wear long hair
So me and my brother borrowed money from mother
We knew what we had to do
We went downstairs past the barber and gymnasium
And got our arms tattooed
Welcome to my life tattoo!
I'm a man now, thanks to you!
I expect that I'll regret you
But the skin-graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die...
Tattoo
My dad beat me
'Cause mine said mother
But my mother naturally liked it, and beat my brother
'Cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude
And she thought that was extremely rude
Welcome to my life tattoo!
We've a long time together, me and you!
I expect that I'll regret you
But the skin-graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die...
Tattoo
Now I'm older
I'm tattooed all over
My wife is tattooed too
A-roody-to-to
Rooty-tooty-to-to
Rooty-tooty-to, tattoo too
To you
Our love was...
Our love was famine
Frustration
We only acted out an imitation
Of what we knew love should have been
Then suddenly...
Our love was flying
Our love was soaring
Our love was shining, like a summer morning
Flying
Soaring
Shining
Morning
Never leaving
Lying
Dying
Love, love, love, long
Love, love, love, long
Love, love, love, long
Love, love, love, long
Our love was flying
Our love was soaring
Our love was shining, like a summer morning
Our love was famine
Frustration
We only acted out an imitation
Of what we knew love should have been
And then suddenly...
Our love was flying
Our love was soaring
Our love was shining
Like a summer morning...
