Momus - Gilda lyrics
[Momus - Gilda lyrics]
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Put the blame on Mame rita Hayworth is Gilda
Gilda is a real swell dame
In a wrap-round robe of liquid gold
One glove on, one off an angel in blue
From head to toe entirely made for love
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Mame or Lili Marlene
Leaning on the Hollywood ponybar
Keeping an eye on the game
Johnny, when your birthday comes
She'll whisper in your ear
She'll treat you so sweet
You'll wish you had birthdays
Every night of the week
You hate this hair you hate this face
You hate these breasts and this body
But hate is such a very exciting emotion
Don't you find, Johnny?
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Go ahead, pick on a dame
Her heart belongs to Daddy
Because Daddy's the man who's paying
Europe is a very big continent
But she'll conquer it if anyone can
Inch by inch mile by mile
Man by man
You hate this hair you hate this face
You hate these breasts and this body
But hate is such a very exciting emotion
Don't you find, Johnny?
You hate this style you hate this grace
As you sit cross legged in your study
Hate is a very stimulating thing
In certain hands, buddy
In Rio de Janeiro, so rich and so unreal
She sings at a casino with
Trick mirrors and rigged wheels
That song from Casablanca
You must remember this
When love is hate and hate is lust
A kiss is never just a kiss, Johnny
Put the blame on Mame rita Hayworth is Gilda
Gilda is a real swell dame
In a wrap-round robe of liquid gold
One glove on, one off an angel in blue
From head to toe entirely made for love
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Mame or Lili Marlene
Leaning on the Hollywood ponybar
Keeping an eye on the game
Johnny, when your birthday comes
She'll whisper in your ear
She'll treat you so sweet
You'll wish you had birthdays
Every night of the week
You hate this hair you hate this face
You hate these breasts and this body
But hate is such a very exciting emotion
Don't you find, Johnny?
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Go ahead, pick on a dame
Her heart belongs to Daddy
Because Daddy's the man who's paying
Europe is a very big continent
But she'll conquer it if anyone can
Inch by inch mile by mile
Man by man
You hate this hair you hate this face
You hate these breasts and this body
But hate is such a very exciting emotion
Don't you find, Johnny?
You hate this style you hate this grace
As you sit cross legged in your study
Hate is a very stimulating thing
In certain hands, buddy
In Rio de Janeiro, so rich and so unreal
She sings at a casino with
Trick mirrors and rigged wheels
That song from Casablanca
You must remember this
When love is hate and hate is lust
A kiss is never just a kiss, Johnny
