lyrics

well, i can’t talk about right now
but the past might be safer ground
let’s say you pick the month and i, the century
oh, but you’ll never know me

i like your big idea, antonio
but then you get done over by so and so
now you only look pretty on the radio
that’s how we sleep at night

now it’s 1937, so away you go
you’ve pointed out the problem but still on it goes
so you’re never gonna hear me on the radio
that’s how i sleep at night
i want to be kissed in a velvet summer

what a way of passing my time
re-inventing old parlour rhymes
from charades, i progressed to blind man’s bluff and blankety blank
oh, but you’ll never know me

i want to be kissed in a velvet summer
where your friends are free
one way or another

i want to be kissed in a velvet summer
where your friends are free
somewhere or other!

oh, spartacus
are you proud of us?
well, i can’t live with myself
oh, junius
are you bored of us?
that’s how we cope

i want to kiss you in a velvet summer
